FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket is described as 'showerproof', meaning it is designed to repel light rain and drizzle effectively. It is not intended for heavy or prolonged rainfall.

What materials is the jacket made from?

The main outer fabric is 100% recycled nylon. The upper lining is 100% cotton, while the lower lining, sleeve lining, and wadding are made from 100% recycled polyester.

How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?

The jacket features back waist adjusters that allow you to cinch in the waist for a more fitted silhouette.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

The diamond quilting provides some insulation, making it suitable for cooler weather when layered appropriately. However, it is primarily designed as a showerproof layer rather than a heavy winter coat.

What is the lining like?

The jacket is half lined with a distinctive, hand-painted floral print, adding a unique visual detail.

What kind of collar does it have?

It features a stylish cord collar with a throat latch that can be fastened for extra protection against the elements.

How should I clean the jacket?

The jacket is machine washable at 30°C. Follow the specific care instructions provided, including washing with similar colours and fastening all closures.

Troubleshooting

Jacket has lost its showerproof quality.

The water repellency may diminish over time. Consider using a waterproofing spray specifically designed for outerwear to restore its protective qualities. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying any treatment.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Lining print appears faded.

Ensure washing instructions are followed precisely, especially regarding water temperature and detergent type. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive heat during washing or drying.
