FAQs

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from a heavyweight blend of 80% cotton and 20% polyester, weighing 420 g/sqm. It is brushed for extra softness and warmth.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The heavyweight fabric offers significant warmth, making it suitable for cool to moderately cold weather, especially when layered. For extreme cold, additional layers or a heavier-duty coat may be necessary.

How should I care for the American Script embroidery?

To preserve the embroidery, always iron the jacket inside out on a low heat setting and avoid ironing directly over the embroidered design.

What does 'loose, boxy silhouette' mean?

It means the jacket is designed with a relaxed fit that is wider and less tailored, offering comfort and ease of movement, ideal for layering.

Can I machine wash and dry the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash cold with similar colors and tumble dry on a low setting. However, for best results and longevity, hang drying is recommended.

What are the dimensions and fit like?

The jacket features a loose fit. Specific garment measurements can be found on the product's detailed specifications page, but generally expect a relaxed cut.

Is the jacket waterproof?

No, the jacket is not waterproof. It offers protection against wind and light moisture but is not designed for heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and washing with similar colors. Avoid high heat during drying; opt for low heat tumble dry or hang dry. A light iron on the reverse side may also help.

Embroidery appears damaged or distorted.

Avoid ironing directly on the embroidered area. Iron inside out on a low heat setting. Ensure the garment is washed and dried according to care instructions.

Zipper is difficult to use.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax along the zipper teeth.

Fit is too loose or boxy.

This jacket is designed with a loose, boxy fit. Consider layering heavier items underneath for a more filled-out look, or explore other Carhartt WIP models if a slimmer fit is preferred.
