Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem to protect from rain.

This jacket is a windbreaker, designed primarily to protect against wind. It is not waterproof. For rain protection, consider a dedicated waterproof rain jacket.

Jacket feels too warm in mild weather.

The jacket is designed for spring-summer and wind protection. If it feels too warm, consider wearing lighter layers underneath or utilizing its packable feature to store it when not needed. It's not intended for very hot weather where even light layers are too much.

Wrinkles after unpacking from its own pocket.

Hang the jacket immediately after unpacking. The nylon material often releases wrinkles over time. If needed, you can lightly iron it at a low temperature as per care instructions, avoiding direct contact with logos.
