FAQs

What size is this jacket?

This specific jacket is a size L (Large). Other available sizes may include S, M, and XL, depending on current stock.

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

Made from quality wool, it provides good warmth for cooler weather and can be an excellent layering piece for winter. For very harsh winter conditions, it may require an additional outer layer.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Generally, machine washing is not recommended for wool garments unless specifically stated on the care label as 'machine washable wool' or 'delicate wool cycle'. For this jacket, dry cleaning or careful hand washing in cool water is typically advised to prevent shrinkage or damage. Always check the garment's care label for the most accurate instructions.

How do I prevent pilling on the wool?

While some pilling is natural for wool, you can minimize it by avoiding excessive friction, such as wearing backpacks or crossbody bags that rub against the fabric. When pilling does occur, use a fabric shaver or de-fuzzer to gently remove it.

What should I wear with this brown jacket?

Brown is a versatile neutral. It pairs well with other neutrals like black, cream, beige, and grey. For a pop of colour, consider emerald green, deep blue, mustard yellow, or burgundy. It complements both casual denim and more formal trousers or skirts.

Is the double-button closure functional or just decorative?

The double-button closure is fully functional, allowing you to secure the jacket. It also serves as a stylish design element, enhancing the jacket's sophisticated aesthetic.

Is this jacket heavy?

While made from quality wool, it is designed to be a fitted knitted jacket, offering warmth without excessive bulk or heaviness. It's comfortable for layering and suitable for extended wear.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears to be shrinking or losing shape.

This often occurs due to incorrect washing or drying. Ensure you are following wool-specific care: hand wash gently in cool water (if permitted) or dry clean, and always lay flat to dry. Avoid hot water and tumble drying.

Pilling (small fabric balls) appearing on the surface.

Pilling is common for knitted wool. Use a specialized fabric shaver, a de-fuzzer, or a fine-toothed comb to gently remove pills. This does not harm the fabric if done carefully.

Buttons feel loose or are coming off.

Regular wear can loosen button threads. Re-sew loose buttons promptly with strong thread to prevent loss. If a button is missing, consider using a spare (if provided) or finding a similar replacement.

Unpleasant odour developing in the jacket.

Wool naturally resists odours, but prolonged wear without cleaning can lead to buildup. Air out the jacket in a well-ventilated area for a day or two. If the odour persists, follow recommended cleaning instructions (dry cleaning or gentle hand wash).

Creases or wrinkles are present.

Hang the jacket on a padded hanger in a steamy bathroom for a few hours, or use a steamer on a low setting, holding it a few inches away. Avoid direct heat from an iron, which can scorch wool; if ironing is necessary, use a very low setting with a pressing cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

No specific 'setup' is required for this garment. Upon receiving your jacket, it's recommended to:

  1. Inspect: Check for any loose threads or packaging creases.
  2. Hang: Hang it on a padded hanger to help it regain its shape and allow any creases to fall out naturally.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial for wool garments to prevent shrinkage, stretching, or damage. Always refer to the care label, but general guidelines for wool (material: Wool) are:

  1. Cleaning: Wool jackets are often best dry cleaned to maintain their shape and fabric integrity. If hand washing is an option (check the label carefully):
  • Use cool water and a mild wool-specific detergent.
  • Gently submerge and squeeze, avoiding harsh rubbing or twisting.
  • Rinse thoroughly with cool water.
  • > Info needed: Specific washing instructions from product label.
  1. Drying: Never put wool in a tumble dryer, as this can cause severe shrinkage. Instead, lay flat to dry on a clean towel, away from direct sunlight or heat. Reshape the jacket gently while damp.
  2. Storage: Store on a wide, padded hanger to prevent shoulder bumps or distortion. Avoid hanging for extended periods in direct sunlight. For long-term storage, ensure it's clean and consider using breathable garment bags to protect from dust and pests.
  3. Pilling: Wool can pill, especially in areas of high friction (e.g., underarms). Use a fabric shaver or de-fuzzer to gently remove pills, restoring the fabric's smooth appearance.
