FAQs

What is the 'Destroy Wash' and how does it affect the jacket?

The 'Destroy Wash' is a finishing process that pre-washes the fabric to give it a worn-in, faded look. It makes the jacket feel softer and more comfortable from the first wear, and highlights the seam details.

Is this jacket lined?

No, the Carhartt WIP OG Detroit Jacket is unlined. This makes it lighter and more breathable, ideal for layering over other garments.

How should I determine my size?

The jacket has a 'Loose OG Fit' designed for ample room. Consult the brand's sizing guide and consider if you plan to wear heavy layers underneath. Some users may prefer to size down for a less roomy fit.

What does 'Eco Friendly' mean for this product?

It indicates that a significant portion of the raw materials used to make the jacket are recycled, contributing to more sustainable fashion practices.

Can I wear this jacket in the rain?

The jacket is made from cotton canvas, which can offer some resistance to light moisture, but it is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry or mildly wet conditions and is not designed as rain gear.

How do I care for the corduroy collar?

The corduroy collar can be cared for by following the general care instructions for the jacket. Avoid harsh scrubbing on the corduroy to maintain its texture.

What is the difference between this and other Detroit jackets?

The 'OG' designation typically refers to an original or classic loose fit. Specific washes, like the 'Destroy Wash', and material variations can also differentiate models.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Lubricate the teeth with a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax if needed.

Color appears to be fading unevenly.

This is often an intended effect of the 'Destroy Wash'. If significant uneven fading is concerning, ensure you are washing according to care instructions and avoid direct, prolonged sun exposure during drying.

Fit is too large or too small.

Refer to the sizing chart and product description for 'Loose OG Fit'. Consider the intended use for layering. If the fit is not as expected, check the return policy for exchanges.

Seams appear to be separating.

Inspect the stitching. If it's a minor loose thread, carefully trim it. For significant seam separation, contact customer support as it may indicate a manufacturing defect.
