FAQs
Is the jacket machine washable?
No, it is recommended to hand wash the jacket with a damp cloth and mild soap to maintain the integrity of the welded seams.
Does the hood provide enough coverage?
Yes, the hood includes an integrated cap and drawcords, allowing you to tighten the opening around your face as needed.
Is this jacket windproof?
The material is wind-resistant, and the adjustable hem and cuffs help significantly in preventing cold wind from entering the jacket.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
Yes, the jacket features welded seams and a waterproof design suitable for heavy rainfall.
How should I store the jacket?
It should be stored on a hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the material.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the fabric surface
The exterior coating may be worn. Ensure the garment is cleaned properly, as dirt and oils can cause water to stick instead of bead off.
Snap buttons feel tight or difficult to open
Gently pull from the base of the snap button rather than the fabric to prevent tearing the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Rains String Jacket in top condition, avoid high-heat drying or direct contact with heating elements, as this can damage the waterproof coating. The jacket is designed to be worn over standard clothing; consider your usual size as the 'loose fit' is intentional for layering. Always hang the jacket to dry after use to prevent moisture buildup in the pockets or seams. If the jacket becomes dirty, wipe it down with a damp cloth or hand wash in cool water with mild detergent. Avoid dry cleaning or ironing.
