Are Penfield Outdoor Apparel products waterproof?

No, Penfield Outdoor Apparel products are not waterproof. However, they are designed to be highly water-resistant. The fabric used in our products has a durable water repellent (DWR) coating that helps to shed light rain and snow, keeping you dry in most outdoor conditions. This coating helps to prevent water from soaking into the fabric, instead causing it to bead up and roll off, ensuring enhanced protection in wet weather. It's important to note that while our products are water-resistant, they are not completely waterproof. In heavy rain or prolonged exposure to water, some moisture may eventually seep in. For complete waterproofing, we recommend layering our garments with a waterproof shell.
