FAQs
What type of wool is used?
The blazer is made from Italian tropical wool, known for its lightweight feel and dry hand.
Is this blazer suitable for all seasons?
It is best suited for transitional seasons like spring and autumn due to its lightweight wool composition. It can be layered for cooler weather but may be too warm for peak summer.
How should I store this blazer?
Hang it on a wide, padded hanger in a well-ventilated area. Avoid plastic garment bags, which can trap moisture. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
Can I wash this blazer at home?
No, this blazer is dry clean only. Washing at home can damage the fabric, lining, and construction.
What does 'half canvas construction' mean?
Half canvas construction means there is a canvas interlining in the chest and lapel area of the jacket, allowing it to mold to your body over time and providing better structure and drape compared to fused construction.
What is the fit like?
The blazer features a relaxed fit, designed for comfort and a contemporary silhouette.
Are the pockets functional?
Yes, the blazer includes functional flap pockets, a welt breast pocket, and internal chest pockets for practical storage.
Troubleshooting
Blazer wrinkles easily during wear
This is often due to the natural properties of wool. Hang the blazer up after wear. Light steaming or professional pressing can help remove stubborn wrinkles. Ensure it is dry before storing.
Lining feels restrictive
The polyester lining is designed for durability and a smooth fit. Ensure the blazer is the correct size and fit for you. Allow the garment to 'settle' on your body during wear.
Buttons feel loose
Carefully use a needle and thread to re-secure any loose buttons. Ensure the thread matches the garment color if possible.
Dry cleaning recommendations unclear
Always refer to the care label inside the garment. For wool garments, 'Dry Clean Only' is a standard instruction to maintain fabric quality and structure. Seek a reputable dry cleaner specializing in wool.
