FAQs
What does 'Waterproof: 5000mm' mean?
This rating indicates the jacket can withstand the pressure of a 5000mm column of water before leaking. It signifies good protection against moderate rain.
What does 'Breathable: 5000mvp' mean?
MVP stands for Moisture Vapor Transmission. A rating of 5000mvp means that 5000 grams of water vapor can pass through one square meter of the fabric in a 24-hour period. This allows some internal moisture to escape.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and do not tumble dry. Air dry away from direct heat.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
The jacket itself offers wind and rain protection. For cold weather, it is best worn as an outer shell layered over insulating clothing like fleece or down.
How do I pack the jacket into its pouch?
Turn the jacket inside out, fold it neatly, and then tuck it into the integrated pouch, usually found within one of the pockets.
Is this jacket suitable for high-intensity sports?
While it offers moderate breathability (5000mvp), it is best suited for light to moderate activities. For very intense sports with heavy sweating, a jacket with a higher breathability rating might be more suitable.
What is the material of the jacket?
The shell is made of 100% Polyamide with a PU coating.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and re-apply a suitable DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This can happen during high-exertion activities. Ensure zippers are closed but not fully sealed if possible, or consider wearing moisture-wicking layers underneath. The breathability rating is 5000mvp, which is moderate.
Packable pouch is difficult to use
Ensure the jacket is folded neatly and as flat as possible before attempting to stuff it into the pouch. Practice folding it a few times to get the hang of it.
Seams are leaking
Check if the taped seams are intact. If they appear damaged or are peeling, the jacket's waterproof integrity may be compromised. Contact customer support if the jacket is under warranty.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

It is a standalone garment and does not require other specific equipment to function, though it can be layered over other clothing for added warmth.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as it can impair the waterproof and breathable properties of the fabric.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the jacket to air dry naturally, away from direct heat sources. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing it, especially if packing it into its pouch.
- Re-proofing: For optimal performance, consider re-waterproofing the jacket periodically using a suitable spray or wash-in product designed for waterproof outerwear. Follow the product instructions for re-proofing agents.
