FAQs

What is the primary material of the Detroit Jacket?

The jacket is primarily made of 100% durable organic cotton twill.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides good thermal comfort and wind protection for cooler days, but for extreme cold, layering with additional insulating garments is recommended.

How do the pockets open and close?

The side pockets feature snap closures, and there is an internal pocket with a zipper for secure storage.

Can I adjust the fit of the jacket?

The jacket features adjustable cuffs, allowing for a slightly customized fit around the wrists.

What does 'Carhartt WIP' stand for?

WIP stands for 'Work In Progress,' which is Carhartt's European fashion-oriented line, focusing on updated, contemporary interpretations of classic workwear.

How does the sizing generally run?

The Detroit Jacket has a classic, structured fit inspired by workwear. It is advisable to consult a size chart or consider your preferred fit (e.g., if you prefer a looser fit for layering, you might consider sizing up).

Is the blue color prone to fading?

While the durable cotton twill is designed for longevity, like most dyed fabrics, the color may naturally fade over time with extensive wear and washing. Following care instructions helps minimize this.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff after washing

This is normal for durable cotton twill. The fabric will soften with continued wear and subsequent washes. Consider a low tumble dry with a couple of tennis balls to help break in the fabric.

Zipper is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to improve smooth operation.

Discoloration on the blue fabric

Follow washing instructions carefully: wash with like colors in cold water. Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents. Ensure the jacket is fully dried before storing.
