FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the GANT Quilted Windcheater Jacket features a water repellent finish, meaning it will resist light rain and moisture, but it is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours.
What kind of weather is this jacket suitable for?
This jacket is best suited for cool, windy, and mildly wet conditions during transitional seasons like spring and autumn. Its recycled polyester padding provides light to moderate warmth.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash the jacket. Please follow the care label instructions: machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors and avoid using fabric softeners to maintain the water repellent finish.
What does 'recycled polyester padding' mean?
Recycled polyester padding is an environmentally friendly insulation material made from recycled plastic bottles. It provides warmth while reducing textile waste and the demand for new petroleum-based materials.
Does the jacket have any interior pockets?
The product description specifies side welt pockets. Information regarding interior pockets is not provided.
How do I maintain the jacket's water repellency?
To maintain the water repellent finish, always wash according to the care label, avoiding fabric softeners. If the repellency diminishes over time, you can re-treat the jacket with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in product designed for outerwear, following the product's instructions.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems less effective after washing.
Ensure you used a mild detergent without fabric softener. To restore repellency, consider using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) wash-in product or spray specifically designed for outerwear, and tumble dry on low heat to activate it.
Jacket feels too restrictive or too loose.
Utilize the snaps on the cuffs and the elasticated hem to adjust the fit. If the jacket feels consistently uncomfortable, verify you have the correct size for your body measurements.
Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. If it's still stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like beeswax or a specialized zipper wax) to the teeth.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Ironing: Iron on low heat if necessary, but avoid direct contact with any water-repellent treated areas to prevent damage.
- Do Not Bleach: Bleaching can damage the fabric and water-repellent coating.
- Water Repellency Maintenance: Over time, the water-repellent finish may diminish. To restore it, use a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in product suitable for polyester outerwear, following the product's instructions. This usually involves washing the jacket, applying the DWR product, and then tumble drying on low to activate the coating.
