FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof or just showerproof?
It is showerproof, meaning it is treated to handle light rain and mist, but it is not intended for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.
Can I wear this in the middle of winter?
The quilted construction provides moderate warmth, so it is best suited for transitional seasons (spring/autumn) or layered over a sweater during mild winters.
Does the hood detach?
The hood is integrated into the design of the jacket to provide seamless protection against the elements.
Is the material machine washable?
Yes, but always consult the specific care label attached to the inside of your garment for the manufacturer's recommended water temperature and cycle.
Does the red color fade easily?
To preserve the color, wash the jacket inside out in cold water and avoid direct sunlight when air-drying.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the fabric rather than beading
The durable water repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Apply a high-quality fabric water-repellent spray designed for outdoor apparel.
Visible wrinkles or creases
Hang the jacket in a humid environment, such as a bathroom after a shower, to allow the steam to naturally relax the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Cotton Traders jacket maintains its showerproof properties and shape, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Check the internal care label for specific temperature settings. Generally, wash with like colors using a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the quilted padding. If using a machine dryer, use the lowest heat setting.
- Water Repellency: Over time, the showerproof treatment may need to be refreshed using a specialized garment waterproofing spray if water stops beading on the surface.
- Storage: Store on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the jacket's structure and prevent the padding from compressing unevenly.
