FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Eshka jacket is lightweight and designed for transitional weather. It provides moderate warmth but may not be sufficient on its own for very cold or freezing temperatures. It can be effectively layered under a heavier coat for added insulation.

How small does the jacket pack down?

The jacket is designed to pack down very small, making it convenient for travel and storage. While an exact dimension isn't specified, it is significantly smaller than a typical jacket of its type.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is primarily made from Polyester, providing a durable and lightweight finish.

How do I wash the jacket?

It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors, using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

Can I wear this jacket for outdoor activities?

Yes, the jacket is suitable for various outdoor activities such as dog walking due to its lightweight nature and secure pockets.

What are the 'silicone trims' mentioned?

The silicone trims refer to subtle, sleek detailing often found on zippers or edges of the jacket, adding a modern aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Jacket does not zip smoothly

Check the zipper teeth for any fabric obstructions. Gently try to clear any debris and use a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax on the zipper teeth to help it glide.

Seams are coming apart

For minor seam fraying, carefully trim loose threads. For more significant separation, hand-sewing with a strong thread or seeking professional repair is recommended.

Zipped pockets feel stiff

Ensure the zipper pull is properly aligned with the track. Apply a small amount of silicone spray or wax to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.
