FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The Qikpac jacket is primarily designed for rain and wind protection. It is lightweight and does not offer significant insulation. For very cold weather, it is recommended to wear insulating layers underneath.
How do I pack the jacket into its pouch?
Turn the jacket inside out and start stuffing it into its designated pouch, often located within a pocket or hood. Fold and compress until it fits snugly.
What does 5000mm waterproof rating mean?
A 5000mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 5000mm column of water before leaking. This provides good protection against moderate rain.
What does 5000mvp breathable mean?
MVP stands for Moisture Vapor Transmission. A 5000mvp rating means that 5000 grams of moisture vapor can pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours, indicating moderate breathability.
Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?
Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softener.
Does this jacket have a hood?

Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a mild soap solution. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Lubricate with a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil.
Reduced breathability leading to internal dampness.
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores. Check for any blockages in the fabric's membrane. For high-exertion activities, consider it as a layer and manage exertion to minimize sweat.
