FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this jacket?
The jacket is designed to provide functional coverage and protection from unpredictable weather, primarily for football training and match-day support.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
While it offers protection from rain, it is not designed as an insulated winter coat. It is best suited for mild to cool, wet conditions or as an outer layer over warmer clothing.
How do I determine my size?
Refer to standard apparel sizing charts. The product information indicates this is a size 'M' for women.
Can I wear this for other sports or activities?
Yes, its streamlined fit and weather protection make it suitable for various outdoor activities where rain protection is needed.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its water resistance?
Machine wash cold with like colors and mild detergent. Tumble dry low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and ironing.
What does 'licenced detailing' mean?
It means the jacket features official branding or logos related to a specific sports team, indicating authentic team merchandise.
Is the jacket breathable?
The jacket is designed for active movement, suggesting some level of breathability, but specific technical specifications on breathability are not provided.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not fully waterproof after washing.
Ensure you have avoided using fabric softeners. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment suitable for technical apparel if performance has significantly degraded over time.
Zipper is sticking.
Gently try to move the zipper. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.
Team logo is peeling.
Avoid high heat when drying and do not iron directly on the logo. If minor peeling occurs, a brief, low-heat iron over a protective cloth might help, but proceed with caution.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This is an apparel item and requires no technical setup. It is designed for general adult female wear. Care instructions are crucial for maintaining the jacket's performance and appearance:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry for best results. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede the water-repellent properties.
- Ironing: Do not iron. If creases are present after drying, a low-heat steam can be carefully applied without direct contact.
