FAQs

Is this jacket water-resistant?

The Dearborn Canvas is naturally dense and durable, providing a degree of wind and light rain resistance, though it is not technically waterproof.

Does the jacket shrink?

Since it is made of cotton, there is a risk of minor shrinking if washed in hot water or dried on high heat; air drying is recommended.

Can I wear this in the dead of winter?

The blanket lining provides a good layer of warmth, but for sub-zero temperatures, it is best used as a layer over thicker sweaters.

What is the fit like?

The Detroit Jacket generally features a classic, slightly boxy workwear fit that allows for mobility.

How do I remove small stains from the canvas?

Use a soft brush and a solution of mild detergent and cold water, then scrub the area gently and hang to dry.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff when opening or closing

Run a graphite pencil tip along the teeth of the zipper to act as a dry lubricant.

Canvas feels too rigid

The jacket will naturally soften over time with regular wear, but you can speed this up by lightly tumble drying it on low heat with clean tennis balls.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely durable fabric that holds up to daily wear
  • Striped blanket lining provides excellent warmth
  • Timeless workwear aesthetic that fits various personal styles
  • Sleeves are lined with nylon for smooth movement
  • Quality hardware, including a sturdy gold-tone zipper

Cons

  • Canvas fabric is initially stiff and requires a break-in period
  • Specific fit may feel slightly boxy compared to modern slim-fit jackets
  • Hand-wash or professional care is recommended to preserve fabric integrity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Detroit Jacket is made of high-quality cotton canvas, proper care is essential to maintain its shape and durability.

  1. Break-in: Wear the jacket regularly to soften the canvas fibers.
  2. Cleaning: Spot clean minor stains with a soft brush and mild soap. Avoid aggressive machine washing with heavy spin cycles, as this can degrade the structured canvas. Hang dry is recommended to avoid heat damage to the fabric and lining.
  3. Layering: Due to the blanket lining, the jacket has a slight bulk. If you plan to wear heavy layers underneath, you may want to stick to your standard size or size up slightly if you prefer a looser, more relaxed fit.
