FAQs

What does 'Indigo Warp deep stone wash' mean?

This describes the specific dyeing and washing process. 'Indigo Warp' refers to the warp threads being dyed indigo, and 'deep stone wash' indicates a process that uses stones or similar abrasives during washing to create a faded, worn-in look with a deep blue tone.

How much stretch is in the fabric?

The jacket is made from a denim blend with 'a touch of stretch,' meaning it contains elastane or a similar fiber to provide some flexibility and comfort without compromising the denim feel.

Is the recycled cotton clearly identifiable?

The recycled cotton is part of the fabric blend (20%). While it contributes to sustainability, it is integrated into the denim and not visually distinct.

What are the key Rider jacket details?

The key Rider details include a slanted yoke, twin chest pockets, zig-zag stitching through the placket, and a branded label.

Can this jacket be worn in mild winter weather?

Yes, it can be worn in mild winter weather, especially when layered over warmer garments like a hoodie or sweater. It is not designed as heavy-duty cold-weather outerwear.

What is the fit like on the shoulders and chest?

The jacket has a relaxed fit overall, providing ample room in the shoulders and chest for comfort and ease of layering.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears too stiff initially.

This is common with new denim. Wear the jacket frequently or wash it according to care instructions to soften the fabric.

Color transfer onto lighter clothing.

Wash the jacket separately or with similar colors, especially during the first few washes. Avoid prolonged contact with light-colored fabrics when damp.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away and try moving the zipper slowly. A small amount of wax or graphite from a pencil can sometimes help lubricate the teeth.
