FAQs
What is 50 Fili Wax fabric?
50 Fili Wax is C.P. Company's signature blend of nylon and cotton, enhanced with a semi-transparent, water-resistant synthetic coating that provides a distinctive waxed appearance and protection against the elements.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its finish?
It is best to hand wash or use a gentle machine wash cycle at a low temperature with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Air dry away from direct heat and sunlight. Re-waxing may be needed over time.
What does 'double garment dyed' mean?
This process involves dyeing the nylon and cotton fibers of the fabric in different colors simultaneously. This technique creates unique tonal contrasts and a richer depth of color in the final garment.
Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket offers water resistance due to its waxed coating and anti-drip treatment, making it suitable for light to moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a dedicated waterproof jacket might be more appropriate.
Can I adjust the fit of the jacket?
Yes, the jacket features an adjustable drawstring hem that allows you to cinch the waist for a more personalized fit and to block out drafts.
What is the purpose of the back ventilation panel?
The rear ventilation panel is designed to enhance breathability and air circulation, helping to regulate body temperature and improve comfort, especially during physical activity.
Does the jacket have internal pockets?
The product description highlights concealed front pockets with flap and snap button closure. It does not explicitly mention internal pockets, suggesting primary storage is external.
Troubleshooting
Jacket appears less water-resistant over time.
The anti-drip treatment may require reapplication. Consider using a C.P. Company approved re-waxing product according to its instructions.
Color appears uneven or faded after washing.
Ensure washing instructions were strictly followed. Gentle washing with mild detergent and avoiding harsh chemicals is crucial for preserving the double garment dyed effect.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate.
Check the zipper for any fabric obstructions. Gently clean the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil lead rub to help it slide smoothly.
Mesh lining feels uncomfortable or sticky.
This can occur due to sweat buildup. Ensure the jacket is properly aired out after use and follow washing instructions carefully to remove residue.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Due to the waxed finish and garment dyeing, it is recommended to hand wash or use a gentle machine wash cycle at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C).
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric's coating and color.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can affect the waxed finish and material integrity.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron at a low temperature, preferably on the reverse side, and use a pressing cloth to protect the waxed surface.
- Re-waxing: Over time, the waxed effect might diminish. Specific re-waxing products can be used to restore the finish, following product instructions.
