Product Information

Full details

The Rains String W Short Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for the modern woman who requires reliable wet-weather protection without sacrificing a clean, contemporary aesthetic. This piece excels in urban environments where its cropped, loose-fitting silhouette provides excellent freedom of movement and a stylish look, though users should note that the shorter length leaves the hips exposed to heavy downpours compared to traditional longer parkas.

FAQs

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed from signature Rains waterproof fabric with bonded seams to keep you dry in wet conditions.

Does it fit true to size?

The jacket has a loose-fitting, straight-cut silhouette. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may want to consider sizing down.

Can I put this in the dryer?

No, you should never put this jacket in a tumble dryer as the heat can melt or warp the waterproof material.

How do I tighten the hood?

Use the integrated drawstrings located on the front of the hood to pull the opening tighter to your preference.

Is the material heavy?

No, the polyester fabric is designed to be lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear.

Can I wear this in the winter?

The jacket is a shell and does not feature internal insulation, but its loose fit allows for heavy layering underneath to accommodate colder temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling on the fabric

This is normal for waterproof finishes. Simply shake the jacket after use and hang it to dry.

Stubborn creases in the fabric

Hang the jacket in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes; the moisture and heat will help the fabric smooth itself out naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket does not require any specialized setup. To ensure the longevity of your garment:

  1. Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. It is generally recommended to avoid machine washing to preserve the waterproof integrity of the seams.
  2. Drying: Always air dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the polyester fabric.
  3. Storage: Hang the jacket on a broad hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders. Avoid folding it tightly for long periods to prevent creasing in the material.
  4. Compatibility: The straight-cut design is highly versatile and pairs well with high-waisted jeans, leggings, or skirts, allowing for easy integration into an existing wardrobe.
