Product Information
Full details
The Lyle & Scott Contrast Zip Water Resistant Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight outer layer that balances functionality with classic style. Its primary benefit is the combination of water-resistant nylon construction and a versatile, adjustable hood, making it an excellent companion for unpredictable weather during commutes or travel; however, users should note that the jacket provides light protection rather than heavy insulation for extreme winter conditions.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-resistant, meaning it is designed to repel light rain and mist. It is not intended to be fully waterproof in heavy, sustained rainfall.
How do I wash the jacket?
Wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach.
Should I tumble dry the jacket?
It is recommended to air dry the jacket. High heat from a tumble dryer can damage the nylon material and the zip components.
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood is permanently attached to the jacket to ensure it stays in place during windy weather.
Does it fit true to size?
Yes, it is designed with a regular fit. If you intend to wear heavy layers underneath, consider if you need extra room, though it is sized to match standard adult clothing measurements.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Gently wipe the zipper teeth with a dry cloth and apply a small amount of clear candle wax or graphite to improve glide.
Water-resistance seems to be fading
Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating wears off. You can refresh this by applying a spray-on water-repellent treatment specifically designed for technical outerwear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Lyle & Scott jacket in optimal condition, always check the internal care label before washing. Generally, nylon garments should be machine washed on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-resistant coating. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent damage to the synthetic fibers. The regular fit is compatible with standard sizing, but if you prefer extra room for bulky layers, ensure you consult the size guide provided.
