Full details
The Under Armour Cloudstrike Jacket in White is designed for adults seeking reliable weather protection without compromising on breathability. Its key benefit is 100% waterproof and breathable performance thanks to UA Storm technology and fully taped seams. A potential consideration is its loose fit, which may not suit those preferring a more tailored silhouette. This jacket features durable 2.5-layer fabric, secure zip pockets, adjustable cuffs, and a PFC-free water-repellent treatment, with a significant portion of its main fabric made from recycled polyester.

FAQs
What does a '10k/10k rating' mean?
A 10k/10k rating refers to the jacket's waterproof (10,000mm water column) and breathability (10,000g/m²/24hr moisture vapor transmission) capabilities. Higher numbers indicate greater protection and breathability.
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
The Cloudstrike Jacket is designed primarily for waterproofing and breathability, not insulation. It is best layered over warmer clothing for cold weather, rather than being a standalone winter jacket.
Can I use fabric softener when washing?
No, fabric softeners should not be used as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and degrade the water-repellent finish, reducing the jacket's performance.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood has a bungee cord adjuster located at the back. Pulling on this cord will tighten the hood around your head for a more secure fit.
What does 'PFC-free' mean for the water repellent treatment?
PFC-free means the water-repellent treatment does not contain per- or poly-fluorinated chemicals, which are considered more environmentally friendly than traditional DWR treatments.
How much recycled material is in the jacket?
The main body fabric of the jacket contains at least 90% recycled polyester, excluding trims and embellishments.
What is the fit of this jacket?
The jacket has a loose fit, designed to allow for comfortable layering underneath.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
The DWR (durable water-repellent) finish may need refreshing. Ensure the jacket is clean, then tumble dry on low heat for 20 minutes to reactivate the treatment. If performance has significantly degraded, consider using a specialized DWR spray suitable for technical apparel.
Jacket feels clammy or not breathable.
Ensure all vents or openings are not obstructed. Check that the interior is not excessively wet from sweat, which can happen with intense activity. Washing the jacket according to care instructions can help restore optimal breathability.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any debris. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth. Move the zipper up and down several times to distribute the lubricant.
