FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The Positano Light Jacket features a DWR treatment which makes it water-resistant, suitable for light rain, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy storm conditions.

What does the bluesign certification mean?

It means the product was manufactured in a way that minimizes environmental impact and adheres to strict safety and chemical usage standards.

Can I wear this in the winter?

This is a light jacket designed for spring and summer; it does not provide thermal insulation for cold winter weather.

Does it have a hood?

No, this model features an adjustable high collar with a drawstring rather than a hood.

How should I store the jacket?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration and maintain fabric integrity.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are designed for storage and accessibility but are not fully sealed against water intrusion.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads off the fabric

The DWR treatment may have worn off. Wash the jacket and reapply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.

Front zipper feels stiff

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently clean any debris from the zipper track using a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the jacket's water-repellent properties, wash it in cold water with a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR treatment from the fabric. It is recommended to tumble dry on low heat or hang dry in a well-ventilated area. If the water-repellent performance wanes over time, you can reapply a standard DWR spray treatment to the exterior fabric after washing. Always check the inner garment label for the most accurate care instructions specific to your item.
