FAQs
What is the main benefit of this softshell jacket?
The main benefit is its versatility in transitional weather, offering water-resistance and wind protection for both everyday wear and light outdoor activities.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, this jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain or showers, but it is not waterproof and is not designed for heavy downpours.
How should I wash this jacket to maintain its properties?
Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C on a gentle cycle, inside out, and separately. Do not bleach. Line dry and do not tumble dry.
Can I iron this jacket?
Yes, you can iron it at a low temperature (max 110°C), but avoid steam ironing, as it can cause permanent damage.
What does 'Dull Surface fabric' mean?
'Dull Surface fabric' refers to the matte finish of the material, which gives the jacket a modern and understated aesthetic.
Are there specific sizes for larger individuals?
Yes, the product description mentions 'Plus styles' which are designed to fit plus-size bodies.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not fully water-resistant
Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt can affect water repellency. Re-treatment with a specific water-repellent spray may be necessary if performance has degraded over time. Note that this jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof, and is best for light rain.
Zipper is difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away. Lubricating the zipper with a bit of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help.
Material feels stiff after washing
This may be due to improper drying. Ensure you are line drying and avoiding the tumble dryer. Low-temperature drying via professional dry-cleaning is the only alternative if line drying is not possible.
