FAQs
What temperature range is this jacket suitable for?
The jacket is thermal tested to -30°C, indicating it is designed for very cold conditions.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Re-apply DWR finish if needed.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is sew-on and features a toggle adjuster for a snug fit.
What kind of activities is this jacket best for?
This jacket is ideal for snow sports like skiing and snowboarding, as well as other outdoor winter activities where warmth and protection from cold and snow are necessary.
Is the sizing UK or international?
The size indicated (e.g., 18 UK) refers to UK sizing.
Can I wear this jacket in rain?
The jacket has a Durable Water Repellent finish, which can handle light rain and snow. For prolonged heavy rain, a waterproof jacket would offer better protection.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket has two side pockets, both secured with zippers.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reapplied. Clean the jacket and then follow the instructions for a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the stormflap is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a graphite pencil) to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels too warm for current conditions.
Layering is key. Wear fewer or lighter layers underneath. The jacket's breathability is limited, so it is best suited for colder temperatures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear. It is designed for outdoor winter activities. To care for your jacket and maintain its performance:
- Washing: Machine wash at 40°C. Use a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as it can affect the water-repellent properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls to help restore the loft of the filling and reactivate the water-repellent finish. Alternatively, hang dry.
- Re-proofing: For best results, re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish periodically, especially if water no longer beads on the surface. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
