FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

The Brydon Softshell Jacket is ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn. It offers good protection against wind and light rain, making it suitable for cool, breezy, or damp conditions.

Is the jacket waterproof or water-repellent?

The jacket is described as water-repellent, meaning it can withstand light rain and moisture for a period. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.

How should I choose my size?

The jacket is designed for a regular fit and regular length. It is recommended to order your usual size. If you prefer a looser fit for layering, consider sizing up.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

The jacket has a bonded fleece interior for warmth, making it suitable for cooler temperatures. For very cold conditions, it is best worn as an outer layer over warmer clothing like sweaters or fleeces.

How do I wash the jacket?

The jacket is machine washable. Please refer to the care label on the garment for specific instructions, but generally, a mild detergent and a low-temperature wash cycle are recommended. Avoid fabric softeners.

What is the material composition?

The jacket is made from 92% Polyester and 8% Elastane.

Does the hood offer adjustable features?

The jacket features a hood with a peak for added protection, but there is no mention of adjustable drawstrings or toggles in the product description.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced

Ensure the jacket is clean. Consider using a dedicated re-waterproofer spray designed for technical outerwear, following the product's application instructions. Avoid fabric softeners during washing, as they can impede water repellency.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Poppers are loose or don't fasten securely

Inspect the poppers for any damage. If they appear to be the issue, professional repair might be necessary as they are typically sewn on.

Fleece interior feels matted

This can sometimes happen after washing. Try to gently brush the fleece with a soft brush after it has dried completely. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying temperatures.
