Troubleshooting

Jacket not repelling water effectively

The water-repellent finish may have worn off over time. Consider using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for clothing to reapply the treatment. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a bit of wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Drawstring is frayed or tangled

If frayed, carefully trim any loose threads. If tangled, use a safety pin or a bodkin to carefully guide the drawstring back through the channel.

Pockets have loose threads or small holes

For minor issues, a needle and thread can be used to carefully repair the stitching. For larger holes, professional repair might be necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's appearance and water-resistant properties, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature (typically 30°C or 40°C) with a mild detergent. Wash with similar colors.
  2. Drying: It is best to air dry the jacket. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the fabric and any water-repellent treatments.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting. Avoid ironing directly over any printed details or fastenings.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
