FAQs

What is the Baracuta G9 jacket made of?

The outer shell is made from a Baracuta Cloth cotton blend with a WR (water-repellent) treatment. The lining is 100% breathable Coolmax® cotton Fraser tartan.

How do I know if I need to size up?

The G9 has a slim fit. If you prefer a more relaxed fit or plan to wear it over bulkier layers, consider ordering one size larger than your usual size.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is water-repellent, making it suitable for light rain or drizzle. It is not designed for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, it is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Do not tumble dry.

What is the significance of the 'Umbrella Back Yoke'?

The umbrella back yoke is a design feature that helps to channel water away from the wearer's back, providing enhanced protection during rain.

Does the jacket have an internal pocket?

Yes, the jacket features an inside pocket, useful for securely storing small personal items.

Where is the jacket made?

This iconic jacket is designed and made in the UK.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not as water-repellent as expected.

The water-repellent treatment may have diminished over time. Consider a professional re-treatment or a home application of a suitable fabric protector spray, following product instructions carefully.

Ribbed cuffs or hem have lost elasticity.

While some natural wear is expected, significant loss of elasticity may be difficult to restore. Gentle washing and avoiding high heat drying can help prolong elasticity.

Fraser tartan lining appears faded.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and wash with like colors to minimize fading. Gentle care and proper storage are key.

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 specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
