Fred Perry Hooded Shell Jacket - Blue - XL

The jacket is made from recycled nylon Taslan.

The jacket is water-resistant, providing protection against light rain and drizzle, but it is not fully waterproof. It is designed as a shell jacket.

The jacket is described as having a 'regular fit'. Refer to the model's size in the description (wearing size medium) and consider your preferred layering. If you are between sizes or prefer a looser fit, consider sizing up.

The jacket is lightweight and features a mesh lining, making it suitable for mild to cool weather. It is designed for layering, so you can add warmer items underneath for colder conditions. It does not provide significant insulation on its own.

Taslan is a type of nylon fabric known for its durability, breathability, and slightly textured feel. It often has a matte appearance and is treated for water repellency.

The embroidery is durable. Follow the general care instructions for the jacket (machine wash cold, do not bleach, tumble dry low). Avoid excessive heat or harsh chemicals directly on the embroidery.

Ensure you are using a cold wash cycle and a low heat tumble dry or air dry. Avoid high heat, which can affect the nylon fabric. Consider a fabric softener specifically designed for synthetic materials if needed, following product instructions.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to clear any obstruction. If the zipper is still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

If the cord is significantly frayed, it may need to be replaced. For minor fraying, you can try carefully melting the ends with a lighter (with extreme caution) to prevent further unraveling, or seek professional alteration services for repair.
