FAQs

What does 'transitional weather' mean for this jacket?

Transitional weather refers to the milder periods between seasons, such as spring and autumn, where temperatures fluctuate and light rain or wind is common. This jacket is designed to provide comfort and protection during these times.

How effective is the water repellency?

The jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment, which helps shed water in light weather conditions. It is not intended for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This is a lightweight jacket ideal for transitional weather. For colder temperatures, it can be layered over warmer clothing such as sweaters or fleeces for added insulation.

What is the material of the jacket?

The jacket is made from a blend of recycled polyester and cotton, which gives it a soft, peached feel.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket has two side welt pockets and two interior pockets for secure storage.

How should I care for the jacket to maintain its properties?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Iron on a low setting if needed. Avoid dry cleaning.

Is the jacket made from sustainable materials?

Yes, the jacket is made with recycled polyester, contributing to more sustainable material usage.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The DWR treatment can wear off over time. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor apparel to restore its water-shedding capabilities. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-application.

Jacket feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and cold water. Tumble drying on low heat with dryer balls can help soften the fabric. Avoid harsh detergents.

Zipper is difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help.
