Product Information
Full details
The Brandit Britannia Winter Jacket is a robust field-style parka designed for adults seeking reliable warmth during cold-weather outdoor activities. Featuring a soft teddy lining and adjustable fitment, it balances rugged durability with essential insulation for winter wear, though its heavy-duty construction means it is better suited for casual outdoor use rather than high-intensity athletic performance.

FAQs
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for cold-weather insulation and wind protection. It is not classified as waterproof, though it can handle light, occasional drizzle.
Can I remove the hood?
The hood is designed to be concealed within the collar, providing a clean look when not in use, but it is not intended to be detached.
Does this jacket run true to size?
It follows a standard field jacket cut. If you plan on wearing thick layers underneath, many users prefer to stick with their standard size or one size up for maximum comfort.
What is the best way to clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle. Avoid bleaching and tumble drying to preserve the life of the teddy lining.
Is it suitable for hiking?
It is well-suited for casual walking and outdoor light activities, but its weight may be restrictive for high-intensity or technical hiking.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure no fabric is trapped in the storm flap and apply a small amount of zipper wax or graphite to the teeth.
Lining appears matted after washing
Once dry, gently brush the teddy lining with a soft-bristled brush to restore the fibers' loft.
Drawstrings are difficult to adjust
Check the interior cord locks for debris and ensure the cord is free of knots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Britannia jacket in optimal condition, refer to the manufacturer's care label, typically located inside the garment. Due to the teddy lining, machine washing should be done on a gentle, cool cycle to maintain the loft and softness of the inner material. Air drying is highly recommended to prevent the lining from matting or damaging the outer shell. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use, and avoid compressing it under heavy items for long periods. The jacket is compatible with most winter accessories, including scarves and base layers, thanks to its standard field-cut fit.
