FAQs

What is 50 Fili Wax fabric?

50 Fili Wax is C.P. Company's distinctive fabric made from a blend of nylon and cotton. It's treated with a semi-transparent, water-resistant synthetic coating that gives it a waxed appearance, enhancing its protection against the elements.

How do I maintain the waxed effect?

To maintain the waxed effect, follow the specific care instructions. Avoid high heat when drying or ironing. Over time, the wax may naturally diminish; you can restore its properties using specialized re-waxing products designed for technical garments.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is water-resistant due to its 50 Fili Wax fabric and anti-drip treatment, making it suitable for light rain and showers. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, additional waterproofing measures or a dedicated rain jacket may be necessary.

How is the fit of this jacket?

The jacket has a regular fit, designed to offer comfort without being too tight or too loose. It allows for layering underneath.

What does 'double garment dyed' mean?

This process means the nylon and cotton fibers within the fabric are dyed separately in different colors. This technique creates unique tonal contrasts and depth, giving the jacket a distinctive and rich appearance.

Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash it cold, inside out, on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and high heat during drying or ironing.

What is the purpose of the back ventilation panel?

The back ventilation panel is designed to enhance airflow and breathability, helping to regulate body temperature and prevent overheating during physical activity or when worn for extended periods.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears stiff or has white marks after washing.

This can be a normal characteristic of the waxed finish and garment dyeing. Ensure you are washing according to care instructions (cold, gentle cycle, inside out). If stiffness persists, consider a low-heat tumble dry or professional dry cleaning.

Water is not beading off the fabric as effectively.

The anti-drip treatment or waxed finish may have worn off. Consider using a specialized reproofing spray or wax designed for technical outerwear to restore water repellency. Follow the instructions of the reproofing product carefully.

Zipper is difficult to operate.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper pull back and forth. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Seams feel less water-resistant.

Ensure seams are not damaged. For enhanced water resistance, consider using a seam sealer product designed for outdoor apparel, applying it carefully along the seams.
