Product Information

Full details

The FLOTTE Archives Waterproof Jacket is designed for adults seeking a stylish and functional outerwear piece. Its key benefit lies in its waterproof construction inspired by classic hunting jackets, offering protection from the elements with a distinct aesthetic. A potential consideration is that the mid-length design may not suit everyone's preference for outerwear length. This unisex jacket features a mid-length cut, a contrasting collar and sleeves with printed turn-up cuffs, a detachable hood, and multiple front pockets.

FAQs

What is the main benefit of the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification?

This certification means the textile product has been tested for harmful substances and is therefore safe for human health.

Can the hood be removed permanently?

The hood is detachable, meaning it can be removed for different styling options or when not needed, but it is designed to be reattached.

How should I clean the signature rubber patch?

It is best to avoid direct heat or harsh scrubbing on the rubber patch. When washing the jacket, turn it inside out and follow the general care instructions. A gentle wipe with a damp cloth may be sufficient for spot cleaning.

What does 'heat-taped seams' mean for the jacket's performance?

Heat-taped seams reinforce the stitching with a waterproof tape, preventing water from seeping through the needle holes, thus enhancing the jacket's overall waterproof capability.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is designed for waterproof protection. For very cold weather, layering with warm clothing underneath would be recommended, as the primary insulation is not its main feature.

What are the benefits of the contrasting collar and sleeves?

The contrasting elements add a unique visual style and design feature to the jacket, differentiating it from standard outerwear and offering a nod to classic aesthetics.

How do I know which size to order?

Refer to the size chart provided by FLOTTE for specific measurements. Since this is a unisex jacket, consider if you prefer a more relaxed or fitted look when choosing your size.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed and that the fabric has not been compromised. Check care instructions to ensure no damaging cleaning agents were used. For persistent issues, contact customer support.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Hood is not attaching securely.

Verify that the attachment points for the detachable hood are properly aligned and fastened according to the jacket's design. Ensure no debris is obstructing the connection.

Fabric appears discolored after washing.

Review the care label for specific washing instructions. Using the wrong detergent or washing at too high a temperature can cause discoloration. Wash with similar colors in cold water.
