FAQs

How does the color-changing feature work?

The jacket features a special heat-reactive pigment in the outer resin coating. This pigment's molecules alter the way they interact with light based on temperature, appearing lighter when warm and darker when cool.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can resist light rain and moisture. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours.

What is the purpose of the aluminum lamination inside?

The aluminum lamination enhances the jacket's thermal insulation properties by reflecting body heat back towards you. It also adds structure and a subtle textured appearance to the fabric.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

Yes, the thermal insulation makes it suitable for cold weather, especially when layered. However, its primary function is adaptive thermal performance across a range of temperatures.

What is the fit of the jacket?

The jacket has a regular fit, designed to be comfortable and allow for layering underneath without being overly bulky.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided by Stone Island. This jacket is a size L (Large) in men's apparel, suitable for adults.

What does the 'MPN' code mean?

MPN stands for Manufacturer Part Number. L1S154100061S0356V005HL is the unique identifier for this specific jacket variant.

Troubleshooting

Color change is not as vibrant or responsive.

Ensure the garment is clean and free from residue. Prolonged exposure to extreme heat or direct sunlight during storage can affect the pigment. Follow care instructions precisely.

Jacket feels stiff or loses some drape.

This can sometimes occur with the aluminum lamination. Ensure gentle washing and avoid high heat during drying or ironing. Sometimes, wearing the garment can help restore its natural drape.

Water repellency has decreased.

The water-repellent finish can diminish over time. Consider reapplying a water-repellent treatment suitable for technical outerwear, following the product's specific instructions.

Zipper is sticking.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no setup beyond wearing it. It is designed as a standalone outerwear piece.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and unique properties of the heat-reactive fabric, specific care is essential:

  1. Washing: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a mild detergent specifically designed for technical fabrics. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay the jacket flat on a drying rack in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat sources, which could affect the color-changing properties.
  3. Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron inside out. Avoid direct heat on the exterior resin-coated surface.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, away from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
