FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, it is designed to be showerproof, meaning it protects against light rain and drizzle, but it will not keep you dry in heavy or sustained rainfall.
Can I wear this in deep winter?
While the quilted padding provides warmth, it is best suited for transitional seasons. In extreme winter temperatures, you may need to layer a heavy sweater underneath.
What is the primary material?
The jacket is primarily made of cotton, which provides a soft and breathable feel while maintaining durability.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is integrated into the design for quick and easy protection.
How should I store the jacket?
Store on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping it compressed in a small bag for long periods to maintain the shape of the quilted padding.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric
The showerproof coating may be wearing off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment.
Padding feels clumped after washing
Place the jacket in the tumble dryer on low heat with two or three clean tennis balls or wool dryer balls to help fluff and redistribute the filling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no assembly. To maintain the showerproof integrity and the loft of the padding, follow these care instructions:
- Always check the internal garment label for specific temperature settings.
- Machine wash on a gentle or delicate cycle using a mild detergent.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the showerproof coating from the fabric.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls to help keep the quilting evenly distributed, or hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
- If the showerproof performance diminishes over time, consider using a specialized wash-in reproofer designed for casual outerwear.
