FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, this jacket is made of polyester fleece and is not designed to be waterproof. It is best used as a layer under a rain shell.

Can I wear this as a base layer?

While it is comfortable, it is generally intended to be worn as a mid-layer over a base layer for better thermal management.

How does the sizing run?

The jacket features a modern classic fit, which is designed to be true to size while allowing enough room for comfortable layering.

Is the jacket machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend a cold, gentle cycle and low-heat drying to protect the material.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

Yes, the zippered hand pockets are sized to accommodate standard smartphones and other personal items securely.

Troubleshooting

Visible pilling on the fabric surface

Use a fabric shaver or lint remover carefully to remove pills and avoid heavy-duty washing cycles in the future.

Zipper feels stiff or catches

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush to remove dust or debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight yet warm for multi-season use
  • Secure zippered pockets prevent items from falling out
  • Adjustable hem helps maintain core temperature
  • Versatile design functions well as a jacket or mid-layer
  • Easy to clean and maintain

Cons

  • Does not offer water resistance
  • Polyester material can be susceptible to pilling over time if not washed correctly
  • Not intended for extreme sub-zero weather on its own

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment requires no setup. It is fully compatible with most outer-shell jackets due to its slim, modern cut. To ensure the longevity of the polyester material, machine wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, which can degrade the performance fibers of the fleece. It is recommended to hang-dry or tumble-dry on a low setting to maintain the integrity of the fabric and prevent unnecessary pilling.
