FAQs
Is the jacket waterproof?
It is water-resistant, making it suitable for light rain and wind, but it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
How does the fit compare to other brands?
This jacket features a relaxed fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you might consider sizing down, though the current fit is designed for comfortable layering.
Where is the Lyle & Scott branding located?
The signature embroidered eagle logo is located on the chest.
Can I wear this in the winter?
It works best in transitional weather. In extreme cold, you will need to layer thermal undergarments beneath it.
Is the material machine washable?
Yes, but use a cool, gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fabric.
Troubleshooting
The hood is difficult to pack away.
Ensure the hood is folded flat rather than rolled before inserting it into the collar compartment.
Water repellency seems to be fading.
After several washes, use a garment-safe DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to restore the water-shedding properties of the polyester.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Lyle & Scott Softshell Field Jacket in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners that might compromise the performance of the polyester fabric.
- Drying: Air dry naturally by hanging the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
- Ironing: Avoid direct heat. If creases appear, use a low-heat setting with a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a wide-shoulder hanger helps the jacket maintain its structure over time.
