FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy snow?
It is designed for light precipitation and casual wear; it is not specifically insulated for heavy, extreme winter snow sports.
Does the hood detach?
No, the three-piece hood is a fixed part of the jacket design.
How should I choose the right size?
The jacket follows a regular fit. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider your standard size or check the sizing chart for specific dimensions.
What is the primary material used?
The jacket is crafted from high-quality, durable nylon.
Can I wash this in a standard washing machine?
Yes, it is machine washable, but always use a gentle cycle with cold water to preserve the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or sticks during use
Ensure the track is clear of fabric or debris. You can rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to act as a dry lubricant.
Water-resistant coating appears to be soaking through
Over time, the DWR finish can wear off. Use a specialized technical garment spray to re-waterproof the nylon shell.
