FAQs
What does 'salt abrasion' mean for the jacket's appearance?
Salt abrasion is a finishing technique that uses salt and abrasion to create a worn, weathered look on the fabric. This process gives the jacket a unique, vintage-inspired character with subtle variations in color and texture.
How should I best care for the weathered finish?
To maintain the unique finish, machine wash at 30 degrees and preferably air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat, which can alter the texture and color of the weathered areas.
Is this jacket suitable for cold weather?
This jacket is crafted from cotton and is intended for transitional weather or as a layering piece. It provides light warmth but is not designed for heavy cold or extreme weather conditions.
What is the material of the sleeve lining?
The sleeve lining is a blend of 54% cotton and 46% viscose, designed to provide a smooth feel when putting on or taking off the jacket.
Can I machine wash this jacket?

Troubleshooting
Jacket appears faded or uneven in color.
This is an intended effect of the salt abrasion weathering process. The variation in color is part of the jacket's unique vintage-inspired aesthetic.
Ribbed cuffs or hem feel too tight.
The ribbed sections are designed for a snug fit. Over time and with gentle wear, they may relax slightly. Avoid stretching them forcefully.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. If the zipper is stiff, try gently working it back and forth. A small amount of wax or lubricant can be applied to the zipper teeth if needed, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
