FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
No, it is recommended to clean the jacket by wiping it down with a damp cloth to protect the waterproof PU finish.
Does the jacket run true to size?
The Rains String W Jacket features a loose, cropped silhouette. You may find your standard size offers the desired relaxed look, but check the size guide if you prefer a tighter fit.
Can I wear this in heavy snow?
This jacket is designed primarily for rain. While it is waterproof, it lacks the insulation required for heavy winter snow conditions.
How do I fix a bent brim on the hood?
The hood features a built-in cap structure. If it becomes misshapen, gently mold it back into place with your hands and allow it to set at room temperature.
Are the pockets completely waterproof?
The pockets are welded and feature snap-fastenings to provide significant protection, but they are not intended for fully submerging in water.
Troubleshooting
Water spots or residue on the fabric
Gently wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and let it air dry away from direct heat sources.
Drawstrings losing tension
Ensure the toggles are clear of dirt or grit; if they slip, ensure the knot at the end of the cord remains secure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Rains String W Jacket in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can damage the waterproof PU coating.
- Storage: Always hang the jacket to dry completely before storing it in a closet. Never fold the jacket while damp, as this can cause the material to stick or degrade over time.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed with a standard adult fit. When layering underneath, the XS size is best suited for light to medium-weight base layers to maintain the intended silhouette.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the snap fasteners and drawstrings to ensure they are free of debris to maintain full functionality.
