FAQs
What is the 50 FILI Gum material?
It's an innovative fabric blend by C.P. Company, combining cotton and nylon with a polyurethane coating. This construction offers enhanced resistance to water and wind while maintaining breathability.
Is the jacket completely waterproof?
The jacket has a waterproof internal coating and offers significant resistance to water. However, it is described as water-resistant rather than fully waterproof, suitable for most weather conditions but perhaps not prolonged heavy downpours.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood is integrated with the high neck collar and can be adjusted using drawstrings typically located around the hood opening or at the back of the hood itself. This allows for a snugger fit to keep out wind and rain.
What is the best way to store the jacket?
Store the jacket in a cool, dry place, preferably on a hanger to avoid excessive creasing. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew or damage to the material coating.
Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?
While the jacket offers some breathability, the coating provides wind and water resistance which can make it feel warm in very hot weather. It is best suited for transitional seasons (spring, autumn) or cooler summer days.
What does 'Garment Dyed' mean?
Garment dyeing is a process where the finished jacket is dyed after it has been constructed. This results in richer, deeper colors and can give the fabric a softer feel, while also potentially creating unique subtle variations in color.
How do I clean the C.P. logo embroidery?
The embroidery is generally durable. Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the logo during cleaning. Follow the general care instructions for the jacket; mild detergents and gentle washing are recommended.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Water resistance seems reduced.
The jacket may benefit from a re-waterproofing treatment. Use a spray or wash-in product designed for technical outerwear, following the product's specific instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before application.
Material feels sticky or gummy.
This could be due to degradation of the coating, possibly from improper washing or storage. Avoid high heat. If severe, consult specialized garment care services. For minor stickiness, try a very gentle wipe with a slightly damp cloth, followed by thorough air drying.
Embroidery is fraying.
Carefully trim any loose threads with small scissors. Avoid snagging the embroidery during wear or washing. If significant damage occurs, professional repair may be needed.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the integrity and performance of the 50 FILI Gum material, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold, on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the material's coating.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting inside out. Avoid ironing directly on the coated surface or any printed/embroidered details.
- Specialized Treatment: For best results and to maintain water resistance, consider occasional re-waterproofing treatments specifically designed for technical fabrics, following product instructions.
