FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle and a technical cleaner to protect the waterproof coating.
Can I remove the hood?
Yes, the jacket features a detachable three-piece hood that can be easily removed when not needed.
Is the jacket insulated for winter?
This jacket acts as a waterproof shell. For cold temperatures, we recommend layering a fleece or sweater underneath.
What does 2000mm waterproof mean?
It means the fabric can withstand a certain amount of water pressure, making it suitable for light to moderate rain showers.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The side pockets have flap closures to keep items secure and dry, though they are not fully waterproof, so avoid storing sensitive electronics inside.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical gear cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray to restore repellency.
Stiff or sticky zipper
Check for debris or fabric caught in the track. If clean, gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth to lubricate them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the jacket's performance, wash it on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating. For drying, hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources. If you notice water no longer beading on the surface, you may re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore the water-repellent performance of the outer fabric.
