FAQs
Is the Gant Hampshire Jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, not fully waterproof. It will handle light rain and showers, but will not provide protection in heavy or prolonged downpours.
Can I wash this jacket in the washing machine?
Yes, but it is recommended to use a gentle cycle with cold water to protect the fabric and DWR finish.
Does this jacket have interior pockets?
Yes, the jacket is designed with two interior pockets in addition to the two exterior side zip pockets.
What is the fit of the Hampshire Jacket?
It features a regular fit, which is designed to be comfortable and suitable for layering over standard clothing.
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
It is best suited for transitional weather. It is lightly padded, so it may not provide enough warmth for freezing winter temperatures.
How do I care for the embroidered logo?
To protect the shield embroidery, it is best to wash the jacket inside out and avoid scrubbing the chest area directly.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads on the fabric
The DWR coating has likely worn off; clean the garment and apply a recommended DWR restorer spray.
Zipper is sticking
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and gently clear any debris from the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gant Hampshire Jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a gentle, cool machine wash. Always check the internal garment care label for specific temperature settings.
- DWR Maintenance: Over time, the water-repellent finish may wear off. If water stops beading on the surface, consider using a specialized DWR re-proofing spray designed for technical outerwear.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid tumble drying unless the care label explicitly permits it, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers and padding.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to prevent creasing and to maintain the integrity of the fabric and the branded locker loop.
