FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-resistant, suitable for light showers, but not intended for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
Can I wear this in winter?
It is best suited for transitional weather. In deep winter, it should be paired with heavy thermal layers underneath.
How should I clean the jacket?
Consult the internal care label for specific instructions, but generally, a cool, gentle machine wash is preferred.
What does 'OS' stand for?
OS stands for 'Oversized,' indicating the jacket has a looser, more relaxed cut compared to slim-fit styles.
Is the material noisy?
No, the high-quality polyester used is soft and quiet, avoiding the 'swishy' sound common with cheaper synthetic jackets.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the jacket in a bathroom while running a hot shower to let the steam gently release wrinkles.
Minor dirt marks on the surface
Use a soft, damp sponge with cold water to gently dab the affected area; avoid harsh scrubbing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup & Compatibility:
This jacket is a standalone garment intended to be worn over standard tops. It pairs best with chinos, denim, or knitwear. Its silhouette is designed for an 'oversized' or relaxed aesthetic (OS), so consider your preferred fit when layering underneath.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the longevity of the polyester fabric:
- Cleaning: Spot clean minor stains with a damp cloth.
- Washing: Follow the specific internal care label; usually, a gentle machine wash cycle on a cool setting is recommended.
- Drying: Air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material degradation.
- Storage: Hang on a sturdy, broad-shouldered hanger to maintain the jacket's structural integrity.
