Product Information
Full details
This Craghoppers Feather Jacket in Red, size 8, is designed for adult women seeking all-weather protection and insulating warmth. Its key benefit is powerful insulation combined with reliable waterproof construction, making it ideal for battling the elements. A potential caveat is that while waterproof, it's best suited for rain, sleet, and snow, and might not be sufficient for extreme sub-zero conditions without additional layering. The jacket features AquaDry technology, Thermo Air+ insulation, RFID shielding, and a concealed hood.

FAQs
What does the Warmth Rating of 7 mean?
A Warmth Rating of 7 indicates a high level of insulation provided by the jacket's Thermo Air+ wadding, suitable for cold conditions. For extremely low temperatures, layering may be advisable.
How do I activate the RFID Shield feature?
The RFID Shield is built into the inner zipped pocket. Simply store your RFID-enabled cards or passport within this pocket to protect them from unauthorized scanning. No activation is required.
Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?
Yes, the jacket features AquaDry construction with a waterproof rating of 8,000mm, making it suitable for rain, sleet, and snow. For prolonged exposure to extremely heavy downpours, additional protection might be considered.
How do I wash the jacket to maintain its waterproofness?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a small amount of non-biological liquid detergent. Avoid fabric conditioner or bleach. After washing, re-waterproof using a suitable product and air dry.
What is the difference between this jacket and other Craghoppers jackets?
This specific model, the Feather Jacket, features Thermo Air+ insulation for lightweight warmth, AquaDry for waterproofing, and RFID shielding. Other models may vary in insulation type, waterproof rating, features, and design.
Is the hood removable?
The hood is concealed within a fold-over collar and is not designed to be removed. It provides additional protection when pulled out.
What material is the outer shell and lining made from?
The outer shell and lining are both made from 100% Polyamide. The trim and fill are 100% Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a suitable reproofing agent according to product instructions.
Reduced insulation effectiveness.
Ensure the Thermo Air+ fill is not compressed. If the jacket has been stored compressed for a long time, hang it up to allow the fill to loft.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zippers gently with a damp cloth. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.
The jacket's pores may be blocked by dirt or residue. Wash according to care instructions, ensuring all detergent is rinsed out. Consider a technical wash for waterproof garments.
