Product Information
Full details
The Men's Trespass Qikpac Waterproof Packaway Jacket in Yellow (XS) is designed for adult males seeking a practical, lightweight, and highly portable outer layer for unpredictable weather. Its key benefit is offering robust waterproof and windproof protection that can be stowed away compactly. A potential caveat is that its focus on packability may mean fewer features than a heavier-duty jacket. This jacket is windproof, waterproof to 5000mm, and breathable to 5000mvp, constructed from 100% Polyamide with a PU coating, and features taped seams for enhanced protection. It conveniently packs into its own pouch.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a waterproof rating of 5000mm, which is suitable for moderate to heavy rain. For prolonged downpours or extreme conditions, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating might be more appropriate.
How do I know if I've ordered the correct size?
Please refer to the Trespass sizing chart available on their website or from the retailer. The 'XS' in the product title refers to Extra Small.
Can I wear a thick fleece under this jacket?
The jacket is designed to be lightweight and packable. While you can wear a light to medium-weight fleece underneath, a very bulky layer might restrict movement and reduce the jacket's overall comfort and effectiveness.
What does 'packs into pouch' mean?
It means the jacket has an internal pocket or an attached pouch into which the entire jacket can be folded and zipped, becoming very compact for storage.
How should I clean the jacket if it gets muddy?
Wipe off excess mud with a damp cloth. Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softener. Air dry afterward.
What is the difference between waterproof and water-resistant?
Waterproof items are designed to prevent water from passing through entirely, usually with taped seams and high-rated coatings. Water-resistant items offer a degree of protection but will eventually allow water to penetrate under prolonged exposure.
Does the jacket have a hood?
The product description does not explicitly mention a hood. Typically, packable jackets like this may feature a roll-away or fixed hood. Please check product images or a more detailed specification if a hood is essential.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a toothbrush and mild soap. Lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant or beeswax. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.
Jacket feels clammy inside
Ensure the jacket is not over-zipped, allowing some ventilation. Check that the breathability rating is sufficient for your activity level. Consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers.
Seams are leaking water
This is uncommon with taped seams. Ensure all seams are properly sealed. If leakage persists, contact customer support as there may be a manufacturing defect.
