FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for light exposure to the elements and provides moderate wind resistance, but it is not classified as a fully waterproof garment.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, it is generally machine washable on a delicate cycle. Always check the specific care tag inside the jacket for temperature recommendations.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is a fixed, non-adjustable design intended to offer a streamlined, ergonomic fit.
What is the material composition?
The jacket is primarily constructed from high-quality, durable polyester, chosen for its lightweight properties and matte finish.
Does this jacket have internal pockets?

Troubleshooting
Front zipper sticks or feels stiff
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it remains stiff, lightly rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth to act as a dry lubricant.
Jacket appears wrinkled after storage
Allow the jacket to hang in a bathroom while you take a warm shower; the gentle steam will help release wrinkles from the polyester fabric naturally.
Static buildup on the matte fabric
Lightly mist the exterior with a fabric anti-static spray or run a dryer sheet over the surface to neutralize static charges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your BOSS jacket in top condition, refer to the interior care label for specific washing instructions. Generally, polyester-based padded jackets should be washed on a gentle cycle with cold water to maintain the integrity of the quilting. Avoid high-heat drying, as it can damage the synthetic fill. For storage, hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to ensure the shape of the shoulders and the alignment of the horizontal quilting remain intact. Compatibility-wise, the neutral design allows it to be worn over a variety of mid-layers like hoodies, long-sleeve tees, or lightweight knits.
