FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the DWR treatment?
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment helps the jacket shed water in light rain conditions, keeping you drier.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
The jacket is designed for transitional weather. While it can be layered with warmer clothing for colder temperatures, it may not provide sufficient insulation on its own for extreme cold.
How do I know if I should size up or down?
The jacket has a regular fit. If you prefer a slimmer or more tailored look, consider sizing down. If you intend to layer heavily, your usual size might be appropriate.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from lightweight organic cotton twill.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the side welt pockets feature hidden press buttons for closure, and there are two interior jetted pockets for additional secure storage.
How should I clean the jacket to preserve its features?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment periodically to maintain water repellency.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff after washing
This can sometimes happen with cotton fabrics. Try ironing on a low heat setting (inside out) or tumble drying on low for a short period to soften the fabric.
Water repellency has decreased
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Reapply a DWR spray according to the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-applying.
Zipper is difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of wax or graphite lubricant to the teeth can help.
