Product Information
Full details
The GANT Quilted Mid Jacket is a versatile barn-style piece designed for adult men who need a reliable, stylish layer for transitional weather. Its key benefit lies in the combination of a classic quilted aesthetic with a practical Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment, making it ideal for light rain and windy conditions. A notable caveat is that while the DWR finish provides protection in light weather, it is not a heavy-duty waterproof raincoat, so it should be supplemented with technical gear during torrential downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain and mist. It is not fully waterproof and should not be used as a substitute for a dedicated raincoat in heavy storms.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the jacket on a hanger to preserve the shape and the water-repellent coating. High heat may damage the lining and the synthetic outer shell.
How does the jacket fit?
The jacket features a regular fit, which allows for comfortable layering underneath without feeling overly baggy.
What is the primary material?
The jacket is crafted from high-quality, durable polyester, which is known for its resilience and ability to hold heat.
Can the cuffs be adjusted?
Yes, the sleeves feature snap-button cuffs, allowing you to tighten or loosen them as needed.
Is the jacket insulated?
The quilted design provides a moderate level of warmth, making it ideal for mild to cool temperatures, though it is not a heavyweight parka.
Troubleshooting
Water begins soaking into the fabric rather than beading.
The DWR finish may be wearing off. Consider applying a textile-safe water-repellent spray designed for synthetic fabrics.
Snaps or buttons feel stiff.
Ensure no debris or lint is caught in the mechanism and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for immediate wear with no setup required. To maintain the integrity of the DWR finish and the polyester fabric, it is recommended to follow the manufacturer's care label closely. Generally, avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR treatment over time. If the jacket becomes soiled, spot cleaning or a gentle machine cycle in cool water is preferred. Hang the jacket to dry rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer to prevent damage to the quilted structure and synthetic lining.
