Joules Portwell Coat - Blue

Yes, it can be machine washed, but it is highly recommended to use a mild, technical-specific detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can damage the waterproof membrane.

The coat is designed with a standard fit; if you plan to layer thick, bulky sweaters, you may want to consider your standard size, as the internal waist toggles offer flexibility.

No, the hood is permanently attached to ensure maximum weather protection and keep the seam sealed against rain.

The coat is waterproof but features a half-body lining. It is best used as a shell layer in mild to cool temperatures; for deep winter, you would need to add warmer insulating mid-layers.

Locate the internal toggles inside the coat at the waistline and slide them to your preferred tension to achieve a tighter or looser fit.

While the fabric is high quality, like any garment, you should avoid prolonged direct sunlight exposure when not in use to maintain color vibrancy.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off; apply a waterproof re-proofing spray specifically designed for technical outerwear.

Gently clean any debris from the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a candle wax stick to the teeth.

Hang the coat on a sturdy, broad-shouldered hanger in a well-ventilated area to allow the fabric to relax naturally.
