FAQs
Is the GANT Quilted Windcheater Jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket features a water-repellent finish, meaning it is designed to shed light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof and prolonged exposure to heavy rain may lead to saturation.
What kind of weather is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is ideal for mild to cool weather conditions, especially during spring and autumn. Its recycled polyester padding provides warmth, while the water-repellent finish offers protection against light precipitation.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, generally, polyester jackets can be machine washed. However, it is crucial to always check the specific care label inside your garment for the precise washing instructions to preserve the material and finish.
What is the padding made of?
The jacket's padding is made from 100% recycled polyester, offering an environmentally conscious choice for insulation.
Does this jacket have internal pockets?
The product description mentions slanted welt side pockets on the exterior. There is no information provided regarding internal pockets. Please check the garment directly for this feature.
What is the fit of the jacket?
The GANT Quilted Windcheater Jacket has a regular fit and is designed to sit above hip length, providing a classic and comfortable silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem to repel water effectively anymore.
Over time, the water-repellent finish can wear off. Try washing the jacket according to the care instructions, and if the issue persists, consider applying a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for outerwear. Ensure the jacket is clean and dry before application.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, gently rub a graphite pencil (pencil lead) along the teeth, or use a specialized zipper lubricant. Operate the zipper up and down a few times to distribute the lubricant.
Jacket feels too stiff or crinkled after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and appropriate detergent for polyester. Avoid overcrowding the washing machine. If line-drying, gently reshape the jacket while wet. A low-heat tumble dry with dryer balls can sometimes help, but always refer to the care label first.
Snap buttons feel loose or are difficult to fasten.
Inspect the snap buttons for any debris or damage. If they are slightly bent, carefully try to reshape them. If a button is severely damaged, contact the manufacturer or a professional for repair.

This jacket requires no special setup beyond simply putting it on. It is designed for adult males and its classic black color and regular fit ensure compatibility with a wide range of casual and smart-casual outfits. To maintain your jacket's quality and water-repellent properties, always refer to the care label located inside the garment. Generally, polyester jackets with recycled padding can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents, bleach, and high heat drying, which can damage the water-repellent finish and the fabric structure. Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, hang dry to preserve the jacket's shape and integrity.
