FAQs

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is crafted from a lightweight water-repellent recycled polyester or nylon diamond taffeta fabric.

Is this jacket suitable for cold weather?

This jacket is designed for mild weather. It offers windproof and water-repellent features but provides limited insulation for very cold temperatures. It is best suited as a transitional layer.

How do I maintain the water-repellent feature?

To maintain the water-repellency, avoid fabric softeners and bleach during washing. You can reapply a specialized water-repellent spray if the effect diminishes over time.

What does the 'cropped' fit mean?

A cropped fit refers to a shorter length, typically ending above the hip or at the waistline, offering a more modern and contemporary silhouette.

How should I clean the embroidered logo?

Avoid ironing directly on the embroidered logo. When washing, ensure the jacket is turned inside out. For stubborn dirt, gently spot clean with a mild detergent and a soft cloth.

What is the benefit of the high collar?

The high collar provides additional protection against wind and can be zipped up fully for increased coverage and warmth.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or getting stuck

Gently pull the zipper up and down while applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a bit of wax along the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Water-repellent finish is no longer effective

Wash the jacket according to care instructions, then apply a fabric-specific water-repellent spray and follow the product's instructions for activation (often involving heat).

Fabric appears wrinkled after washing

Remove the jacket from the washing machine promptly. Tumble dry on low heat for a short period or hang it to dry. If necessary, iron on a very low setting with a protective cloth over the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. No setup is required.

Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. It can be paired with a variety of casual and athletic bottoms.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and water-repellent properties of the jacket, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Machine Wash: Wash inside out with similar colors on a gentle cycle using cold water.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the fabric and compromise its water-repellent finish.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry. Do not iron directly on the logo or prints.
  4. Re-waterproofing: If the water-repellent finish seems to be diminishing, consider using a specialized re-waterproofing spray suitable for synthetic fabrics after washing and drying.
