FAQs

What does 'Tailored Fit' mean for this jacket?

A 'Tailored Fit' indicates that the jacket is cut closer to the body than a traditional regular fit, offering a more modern and streamlined silhouette. It's designed to provide a sharp, contemporary look without being overly restrictive.

Is this jacket suitable for formal occasions?

Yes, its classic grey color, 2-button closure, and notch lapel make it perfectly suitable for a range of formal occasions, including business meetings, weddings, and evening events when paired with appropriate trousers and accessories.

Can I wear this jacket casually?

Absolutely. While it's a suit jacket, its versatile grey shade and modern fit allow it to be dressed down. Pair it with dark wash jeans or chinos and a smart casual shirt for a sophisticated everyday or evening look.

What is the material composition of the jacket?

The jacket is made from a polyester viscose blend fabric with added stretch. This blend provides durability, a comfortable feel, and flexibility.

How should I clean this Burton suit jacket?

For best results and to preserve the fabric and shape, professional dry cleaning is recommended. Always check the care label inside the jacket for specific cleaning instructions.

Does the jacket offer any flexibility or stretch?

Yes, the polyester viscose blend fabric includes added stretch, ensuring greater comfort and ease of movement throughout the day.

Will this jacket wrinkle easily?

While the fabric blend offers some resistance, like most tailored garments, it can wrinkle. Hanging it properly and using a steamer will help maintain its smooth appearance.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too tight across the chest or shoulders.

Ensure you have the correct size. A tailored fit is snug but should not restrict movement. Consider trying the next size up or consulting a tailor for minor adjustments if possible.

Jacket is wrinkled after wear or storage.

Hang the jacket in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes, or use a handheld garment steamer. If using an iron, ensure it's on a low heat setting with a pressing cloth.

Fabric appears dull or has minor stains.

Refer to the care label for specific dry cleaning instructions. For minor surface dust, use a soft garment brush. For stains, immediate professional dry cleaning is recommended.

Sleeves feel too long or too short.

The ideal sleeve length allows about half an inch of your shirt cuff to show. If the sleeves are significantly off, consult a professional tailor for alteration. This is a common and relatively easy adjustment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Your Burton Tailored Fit Essential Suit Jacket requires no complex setup. Simply try it on to ensure the fit is correct. A well-fitting jacket should allow you to button the top button comfortably without pulling, and the sleeves should end just above your wrist bone, allowing about half an inch of shirt cuff to show.

Compatibility

This jacket's grey color and classic design make it highly compatible with a wide range of wardrobe items:

  • Shirts: White, light blue, or patterned dress shirts for formal occasions; solid color or subtle pattern button-downs for smart casual.
  • Trousers: Match with Burton Tailored Fit Essential Grey Trousers for a full suit, or pair with navy, black, or even khaki chinos for a more relaxed look.
  • Accessories: Complement with a tie and pocket square for formal events, or a simple leather belt and dress shoes for a polished finish.

Care

To maintain the quality and longevity of your suit jacket, proper care is crucial:

  1. Dry Cleaning: Most suit jackets, including those with polyester blends, are best dry cleaned. Check the care label for specific instructions. Avoid frequent dry cleaning; only clean when necessary.
  2. Spot Cleaning: For small spills, gently dab the affected area with a clean, damp cloth. Do not rub vigorously, as this can damage the fabric.
  3. Hanging: Always hang your jacket on a broad, padded hanger to maintain its shape, especially the shoulders.
  4. Steaming/Ironing: Use a garment steamer to remove wrinkles. If ironing, use a low heat setting with a pressing cloth to protect the fabric, and iron inside out.
  5. Storage: Store in a breathable garment bag to protect it from dust and environmental factors when not in use.
