- Is the AmazeStretch Jacket waterproof?
- It is water-repellent, not fully waterproof. It sheds drizzle and light rain, but seams are not sealed for sustained downpours.
- Does it have a hood?
- No. This model has a high collar and no hood, so bring a hat or a separate rain shell for wet weather.
- How warm is it?
- It is an unlined wind shell with no insulation. It blocks wind and adds a little warmth over a base layer but is not a cold-weather jacket.
- What sizes does it come in?
- It is offered in women's US sizes from 6 to 22, with XS through XXL depending on the size run. The fit is straight, so size up if you want room for a fleece underneath.
- How should I wash it?
- Machine wash at 30 degrees, tumble dry low and do not bleach. Avoid fabric softener, which can reduce the water-repellent finish.
- Is it good for hiking?
- Yes for mild, windy days. The stretch fabric and zippered pockets suit trail use, but pair it with a warmer or more waterproof layer in cold or wet conditions.
