Product Information

Full details

The Filson Ranger Short Cruiser Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a durable, water-repellent, and easy-to-care-for outerwear option suitable for warmer weather. Its key benefit lies in its lightweight, washable waxed cotton construction, offering protection without the bulk of traditional waxed jackets. A potential consideration is its trim fit, which may limit layering options for those preferring a looser feel. This jacket combines Filson's expertise with a modern, practical design.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is designed to repel wind and rain, making it suitable for moderate weather conditions. For heavy downpours, a more robust waterproof garment may be necessary.

How often should I wash the jacket?

Wash only when necessary to maintain the integrity of the waxed finish. Follow the specific machine washing instructions provided in the care section.

Can I use regular laundry detergent?

No, it is recommended to use soap flakes or a non-biological detergent to preserve the waxed finish and fabric integrity. Regular detergents can strip the wax.

What does 'trim fit' mean for this jacket?

Trim fit indicates a closer, more tailored cut. It allows for lightweight layers underneath but may not accommodate bulky sweaters or multiple thick layers comfortably.

Where is the jacket made?

This jacket is made in Bangladesh.

Does the jacket have a hood?

No, the Filson Ranger Short Cruiser Jacket does not come with a hood.

Will the dry-wax finish transfer to other clothing?

The dry-wax finish is designed to be less prone to transfer than traditional waxes. However, prolonged contact with light-colored clothing, especially when new or warm, may result in minor transfer. Washing according to instructions helps mitigate this.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff after washing

This can be normal with waxed cotton. Ensure low heat drying and iron on a cool setting if needed. The fabric will soften with wear.

Waxed finish seems diminished

The dry-wax finish is designed to be washable and may lessen over time. For enhanced water repellency, consider reapplying a Filson-approved wax treatment, following product instructions.

Snaps are difficult to fasten or unfasten

Ensure the snaps are properly aligned. If they remain stiff after initial use, they will loosen slightly with regular wear. Avoid forcing them.
