FAQs

What makes this jacket reversible?

The jacket is constructed with finished seams and materials on both the interior and exterior, allowing it to be worn inside out, revealing a different design or color scheme.

What is the primary material of the jacket?

The jacket is made from a blend of materials, primarily 50% polyamide, with additions of cotton, polyester, acrylic, wool, and other fibers.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is slightly padded, offering warmth for milder conditions like spring or autumn. It is not designed as heavy winter outerwear.

How should I clean the Dries Van Noten Bomber Jacket?

Due to its complex material blend, it is recommended to dry clean the jacket only to maintain its structure and appearance.

What does 'mélange texture' mean?

Mélange texture refers to a fabric that has a speckled or blended appearance, created by mixing different colored fibers before or during spinning.

Does the jacket have an elasticated waistband?

Yes, the jacket features an elasticated waistband along with elasticated cuffs and collar, which are typical ribbed knit trims for a bomber style.

Are the pockets functional?

Yes, the jacket is equipped with pockets for practical use.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you followed the 'Dry Clean Only' instructions precisely. If machine washed in error, professional dry cleaning may help restore softness.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Gently move the zipper up and down a few times. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Colors appear faded.

This may be due to improper cleaning. Future cleaning should strictly adhere to dry clean only recommendations to preserve color vibrancy.

Ribbed trims have lost elasticity.

Avoid high heat when drying or ironing, as this can degrade elastic fibers. If significantly stretched, professional repair may be considered.

Cons

  • Sizing: Designed for an adult male fit. The jacket is described as a 'true to size fit' in XL. It is advisable to consult the brand's specific size chart for accurate measurements.

Care Instructions:

Based on the material composition (50% polyamide, 19% cotton, 15% polyester, 10% acrylic, 5% wool, 1% other fibers), the following care is recommended:

  • Dry Clean Only: Due to the blend of natural and synthetic fibers, dry cleaning is the recommended method to maintain the integrity and appearance of the fabric.
