FAQs

What is herringbone twill and why is it used?

Herringbone twill (HBT) is a variation of twill weave characterized by a distinctive zig-zag pattern. It's used for its enhanced tear resistance and historically, for its reduced tendency to skew compared to regular twill. It's a durable fabric often found in vintage workwear and military garments.

How should I care for the sage green dye?

To preserve the sage green color, wash the jacket in cold water (30°C) with a mild detergent. Air dry and iron on a medium setting, preferably inside out. Avoid bleach.

Does the jacket shrink after washing?

The jacket has undergone a gentle wash, but some minimal shrinkage might occur if tumble-dried. It is best to air dry to maintain the intended fit.

What are the pocket details?

The jacket features one chest pocket, two roomy front pockets, and one spacious inside pocket. The front pockets are securely attached with single stitches forming small triangles at the openings for added reinforcement.

What is the fit of the jacket?

The jacket has a regular fit, designed for a clean and versatile silhouette. The brand states it runs true to size.

What are Corozo buttons?

Corozo buttons are made from the nut of the Tagua palm tree. They are a durable, natural, and sustainable alternative to plastic buttons, often used in high-quality garments.

Will the jacket age well?

Yes, the herringbone twill fabric and piece-dyeing process are designed to age beautifully, developing a unique patina and character over time with wear.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels stiff or rigid.

This is normal for new herringbone twill. Wear the jacket regularly to break in the fabric. Washing it according to the care instructions can also help soften the material over time.

Color appears slightly uneven.

The piece-dyeing and gentle wash process intentionally creates subtle variations in color to enhance the fabric's character and promote aging. This is a design feature, not a defect.

Pockets seem tight initially.

The reinforced stitching at pocket openings contributes to durability. The pockets will become easier to use with regular wear as the fabric softens.

Sizing seems different than expected.

The jacket is designed in a 'regular fit' and runs true to size according to the brand's recommendation. Please refer to the size chart for specific measurements if unsure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Nudie Jeans Buddy Chore Jacket requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear upon purchase.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed as a versatile outerwear piece. It pairs well with a wide range of casual attire. Its regular fit is intended to accommodate standard layering pieces like t-shirts, sweaters, or long-sleeve shirts underneath.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and appearance of the jacket, especially its piece-dyed finish, adhere to the following care guidelines:

Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with a mild detergent. It is recommended to wash separately or with similar colors for the first few washes to prevent any potential color bleeding.
Drying: Air dry preferably. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink the cotton and potentially alter the fabric's texture and fit. Hang the jacket on a suitable hanger to dry.
Ironing: If necessary, iron on a medium heat setting. It is advisable to iron the jacket inside out to protect the outer fabric and dye.
Bleaching: Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals, as this can damage the fabric and fade the color unevenly.
