FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

The Brydon Softshell Jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can withstand light rain and splashes, but it is not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for heavy downpours.

What is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 92% Recycled Polyester and 8% Elastane, with a soft poly fleece lining.

How should I wash the jacket?

Refer to the internal care label for precise instructions. Generally, machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

Can I wear this in cold winter weather?

It provides warmth and can be layered. For very cold conditions, additional insulation or a heavier outer layer may be necessary.

Does the hood have adjustable toggles?

The jacket features a hood with a peak for shape and protection, but specific adjustment features like toggles are not detailed in the product description.

What does 'softshell' mean in this context?

Softshell refers to a fabric that is relatively soft, breathable, and flexible, offering some water and wind resistance, prioritizing comfort and movement over complete waterproofing.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency decreasing

Ensure the jacket is clean. Reapply a water-repellent treatment specifically designed for softshell or polyester fabrics following product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently try to move the zipper. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Fleece lining feels matted

This can sometimes occur with frequent washing. Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and avoiding fabric softener. Gentle brushing with a soft brush might help restore some loft.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comfortable and warm due to soft fleece lining.
  • Offers protection from light rain and wind.
  • Classic workwear/military-inspired design.
  • Secure pocket closures.
  • Sustainable material blend (recycled polyester).

Cons

  • May not be suitable for heavy downpours.
  • Requires careful adherence to washing instructions.
  • Limited breathability compared to technical waterproof jackets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no assembly. Its compatibility is primarily with casual and smart-casual attire. To ensure the longevity and performance of the water-repellent finish and fabric, it is crucial to follow the care instructions provided. Typically, this involves machine washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners, and tumble drying on low heat or air drying. Harsh chemicals or high heat can degrade the material and its protective properties. Always check the garment's internal care label for specific recommendations.
