FAQs
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket is made from 100% Cotton, treated with multiple layers of coating for a unique texture and sheen.
How should I determine the right size?
Refer to standard sizing charts for men's jackets. This XL size is designed for adult males. The moto silhouette generally offers a comfortable, slightly relaxed fit.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
No, machine washing is not recommended due to the specialized fabric treatment. It should be dry cleaned only.
What does 'distressed in Italy' mean?
It signifies that the authentic distressing and finishing processes applied to this garment were carried out in Italy, highlighting the brand's commitment to quality craftsmanship and heritage.
Is the jacket suitable for cold weather?
The jacket provides a layer of warmth suitable for mild to cool weather. For significantly cold conditions, layering with a sweater or thermal base layer is advised.
What is the closure system?

Does it have internal pockets?
The description mentions side pockets. It does not specify internal pockets; please refer to product imagery or consult the retailer for confirmation.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears dull or loses sheen
This can occur with improper cleaning. Ensure only professional dry cleaning is used. For minor dullness, a light, careful steaming from the reverse side might help restore some luster, but consult a professional cleaner first.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper area is free from debris. Gently apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax (like a candle stub) to the zipper teeth. Move the zipper up and down repeatedly to distribute the lubricant.
Minor wrinkles or creases
Hang the jacket in a steamy bathroom for a short period. Alternatively, use a low heat setting on an iron, always ironing on the reverse side of the fabric and preferably with a pressing cloth to protect the coated surface.
