FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Dickies Baltimore Nylon Jacket is designed for rain and wind protection. It is lightweight and suitable for layering, but does not offer significant insulation for extreme cold. For colder weather, layering with warmer garments underneath is recommended.

What does 'sealed seams' mean for the jacket?

Sealed seams mean that the stitching lines on the inside of the jacket are covered with a waterproof tape. This prevents water from seeping through the tiny holes created by the needle during stitching, significantly enhancing the jacket's waterproof performance.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged storage in direct sunlight or damp conditions. Hanging the jacket is preferable to folding it tightly to prevent creases and maintain its shape.

Can I wear this jacket for athletic activities like running?

Yes, the jacket is designed for freedom of movement, making it suitable for activities like running or brisk walking. Its breathable properties (within the context of a waterproof jacket) help manage moisture during moderate exertion.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from polyester, chosen for its durability and water-resistant properties.

Are there other colors or sizes available?

This guide focuses on the Black - S variant. Please refer to the product listing for availability of other colors and sizes.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Lubricate with a graphite pencil (rubbing the pencil lead along the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Seams appear to be leaking.

Ensure the jacket has been properly cleaned and treated with a waterproofing agent. If leaks persist through the seams themselves, contact customer support as this may indicate a manufacturing defect.

Reflective details are peeling or damaged.

Avoid high heat drying and harsh detergents. If damage has occurred, repair is generally not possible; however, the jacket's primary function of rain protection remains.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Dickies Baltimore Nylon Jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed as outerwear and is compatible with various clothing items, from t-shirts to lighter sweaters, depending on the weather. It is suitable for adult wear.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's waterproof properties and longevity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the waterproof membrane.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. High heat can damage the waterproof coating.
  3. Re-proofing: Periodically, especially after washing, consider applying a re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for technical outerwear to refresh its water-repellent finish. Follow the product's specific instructions.
