FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Hampshire Jacket?
The GANT Hampshire Jacket is designed for transitional weather, offering a lightweight, water-repellent shell for protection against light rain and wind.
Is the jacket suitable for very cold weather?
While it offers some protection, the jacket is lightweight and best suited for milder temperatures. It can be layered with warmer clothing for colder conditions.
How should I clean the jacket?
The jacket should be machine washed cold at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a low setting.
What does 'water-repellent' mean for this jacket?
The jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface in light weather conditions. It is not waterproof and may not provide protection in heavy rain.

The jacket is designed for a regular fit, offering a classic and comfortable silhouette.
Can I carry personal items securely?
Yes, the jacket features two interior pockets in addition to the side welt pockets, providing secure storage options.
What are the environmental benefits of this jacket?
The jacket is made from a blend that includes recycled polyester, contributing to a more sustainable material choice.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may need to be reapplied. Follow the care instructions for re-treatment or consult a specialized outdoor gear care guide.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the zipper area is clean and free of debris. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Material feels less soft after washing.
Ensure you are following the recommended washing instructions. Using a mild detergent and avoiding high heat during drying can help maintain the soft, peached feel.
