Product Information
Full details
The Mascot Gimont Hoodie is designed for adult women seeking a comfortable and stylish hooded sweatshirt. Its key benefit is the combination of soft, brushed cotton interior for warmth and a modern, slim fit for ease of movement. A potential caveat is that prolonged direct sunlight may cause color fading, suggesting it's best suited for indoor or moderate outdoor use rather than continuous exposure.

FAQs
What material is the Mascot Gimont Hoodie made of?
The hoodie is made from a blend of 60% combed cotton and 40% polyester, with a brushed interior.
What does 'modern fit' mean for this hoodie?
A modern fit implies a contemporary, slightly closer cut than a traditional hoodie, designed to offer a sleek silhouette while still allowing for comfortable movement.
How should I wash this hoodie to prevent shrinkage?
Machine wash at 40°C with coloured items. Do not tumble dry; instead, air dry the hoodie to minimize shrinkage. Expect up to 5% shrinkage.
Can I wear this hoodie for outdoor work?
It's suitable for general wear and moderate outdoor use. However, prolonged direct sunlight may cause fading. For continuous outdoor work in demanding conditions, a PREMIUM product might be more appropriate.
Does the hoodie have inner pockets?
Yes, the hoodie features two interior pockets for secure storage.
Is this hoodie suitable for sensitive skin?
The combed cotton is soft against the skin, and the extra padding over the neck seam is designed to prevent irritation, making it comfortable for most users.
What certifications does this product have?
The hoodie is certified with Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, ensuring it is tested for harmful substances.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stuck
Gently try to move the zipper pull up and down. If it's caught on fabric, carefully try to free the material. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a tiny drop of lubricant to the zipper teeth may help.
Hoodie feels stiff after washing
This can be due to the cotton blend. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Air drying and a low-temperature iron can help restore softness. Avoid over-drying.
Color appears to be fading
This is likely due to prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Store the hoodie away from direct light when not in use. For future washes, use a color-safe detergent and wash with similar colors.
Ribbed cuffs/waistband losing elasticity
Avoid high heat drying, as this can degrade elastic fibers over time. Gentle washing and air drying are best to preserve elasticity.
