FAQs
What does EN 343 compliance mean for this set?
EN 343 is a European standard for protective clothing that protects against rain. Compliance means the Snickers 8378 set has been tested and certified to offer a specific level of protection against precipitation (waterproofness) and air permeability (breathability).
Is this set suitable for very cold weather?
The Snickers 8378 set is designed primarily for waterproof and windproof protection. While it offers a mesh lining for comfort, it is not insulated. For very cold conditions, layering additional warm clothing underneath would be necessary.
How do I find the correct size?
Refer to the product sizing chart provided by Snickers or the retailer. The available sizes range from XS to 3XL. It's recommended to measure your chest, waist, and inseam for an accurate fit.
Can the jacket and trousers be purchased separately?
The Snickers 8378 is sold as a complete set. Individual components are typically not available separately for this specific model.
How should I store the set when not in use?
The set comes with a handy bag, which is ideal for storage. Store it in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in a compressed state for extended periods, as this may affect the fabric's properties.
What material is the set made from?
The set is constructed from lightweight polyamide fabric (130 g/m²) with taped seams for waterproof protection and a mesh lining for added comfort.
What colors are available?
This particular set is available in classic black and navy blue colors.
Troubleshooting
Jacket or trousers leaking.
Ensure all seams are properly taped and intact. Check the care label for correct washing instructions, as improper washing can damage the waterproof coating. Consider re-taping any damaged seams if necessary.
Reduced breathability.
Clean the garment according to care instructions. Clogged pores from dirt or detergent residue can reduce breathability. Ensure the mesh lining is also clean.
Adjustments are not staying in place.
Check that the hook and loop closures on the cuffs and ankles are clean and free of debris. Ensure they are fastened securely. If the elastic or Velcro is worn, consider professional repair or replacement.
Jacket or trousers feel stiff after washing.
Avoid using fabric softeners. If stiffness persists, a low-heat tumble dry might help soften the material. Ensure the garment is not over-dried.
