Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid bleach.
How should I dry the jacket?
It is best to tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. Remove it promptly after drying.
Does the jacket have an inner pocket?
Yes, the jacket features two front zip pockets and one inner pocket for storing essentials.
What are the benefits of the recycled materials used?
Using recycled polyester for the outer shell and recycled nylon for the lining contributes to sustainability by reducing waste and the demand for virgin resources.
How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?
The jacket has bound elasticated cuffs and a drawcord hem, which you can adjust to achieve a more personalized and secure fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside after light rain.
Ensure the jacket is properly zipped and that cuffs/hem are snug. Check if the water-repellent treatment needs reapplication after numerous washes.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure zippers are clean and free from debris. Gently lubricate with a graphite pencil or wax if needed. Close all zippers before washing to prevent damage.
Reduced warmth after washing.
Ensure the jacket is not overly compacted in the wash. Tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls to help restore loft to the padding. Avoid fabric softeners.
