Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or sticks
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track; applying a small amount of graphite or a wax candle to the zipper teeth can improve movement.
Fabric looks slightly wrinkled
Use a garment steamer or a cool iron to gently smooth out the cotton fabric after washing.
Jacket feels tight after washing
This is likely due to the natural cotton shrinking in the dryer; avoid machine drying in the future and air dry for a consistent fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is an apparel item, there is no technical setup required. Simply choose your preferred size ranging from XS to XXL to ensure the best fit. Regarding care, because the jacket is composed of cotton, it is recommended to wash in cool water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using high heat in the tumble dryer to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric fibers. For the best longevity, hang-drying the jacket is highly recommended. The neutral black color makes it highly compatible with a wide range of pants, including denim, khakis, or work trousers, allowing for easy integration into existing outfits.
