Two-Zipperhead Adaptability: Control your airflow instantly. The dual-zipper system allows you to unzip from both the top and the bottom simultaneously. Unzip from the bottom to allow full hip clearance and ventilation during deep squats and running strides, while keeping the top securely closed.

Vertical Open Back Flap: Engineered for targeted thermoregulation. A strategically placed vertical flap across the back allows trapped body heat and vapor to escape continuously during high-heart-rate intervals, preventing the "greenhouse effect" while keeping wind off your shoulders.

Zero-Bulk Packability: Thanks to the ultra-thin 50gsm weave, this jacket compresses down to almost nothing, making it easy to shed mid-workout and stow away without adding bulk to your gear bag.

Wash Inside Out with Zippers Closed: Before throwing it in the machine, pull the two zipperheads to the top and close the jacket completely. This prevents the metal teeth from catching on and tearing the delicate 50gsm fabric during the wash cycle.

Machine Wash Cold on Gentle: Use cold water (maximum 30°C) on a delicate or hand-wash cycle. Use a mesh laundry bag if possible to protect the ultra-light material from friction against heavier garments like hoodies or denim.

Use Mild Liquid Detergent Only: Do not use fabric softeners or bleach. Softeners coat the fine woven threads of the fabric, which can clog the material and ruin its natural breathability and quick-drying properties.

Line Dry in Shade Only: Hang the jacket immediately after washing. Because it is an ultra-light 50gsm weave, it will air-dry completely in a matter of minutes. Do not tumble dry, as even low dryer heat can distort or shrink the technical woven weave.

Do Not Iron or Dry Clean: Never apply direct heat to this jacket. An iron will instantly scorch or melt the lightweight fibers. Chemical dry cleaning solvents will break down the fabric's structure and degrade the hardware.

Woven Featherweight Fabric: Experience ultimate weightlessness. Clocking in at an incredibly lean 50gsm (grams per square meter), this highly specialized woven fabric provides a windproof barrier that feels entirely translucent on the body.

Pure Performance Utility: To preserve the ultra-lightweight structural integrity, breathability, and raw performance of the fabric, this premium material is kept entirely clean—free from heavy printed designs or logos that can stiffen the fabric or trap body heat.
