Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting Started
Simply put on the coat as you would any other jacket. Adjust the hood and waist to your preference using the integrated drawstrings or tabs to achieve a comfortable and flattering fit.
Compatibility
This coat is designed for versatile styling:
- Apparel: Easily worn over everyday outfits such as t-shirts, sweaters, blouses, denim jeans, trousers, and dresses. Its longline cut allows it to complement both casual and slightly more dressed-up ensembles.
- Footwear: Ideal with boots (chunky boots, ankle boots, wellington boots) for wet weather, but also pairs well with sneakers or casual flats.
Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial to maintain the waxed finish and longevity of your coat.
- Cleaning: Do not machine wash, tumble dry, or dry clean. Instead, wipe clean with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used, but always test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Stains: For minor marks, gently dab with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid harsh rubbing as this can damage the waxed finish.
- Drying: Allow the coat to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators or sunlight.
- Maintaining Water Resistance: Over time, the waxed finish may diminish. While specific rewaxing instructions for faux leather may vary, you might consider using a waterproofing spray designed for synthetic materials to refresh its water-repellent properties. Always follow the product instructions for any care treatments.
- Storage: Store the coat on a wide hanger in a cool, dry place to help maintain its shape and prevent creasing. Avoid folding it tightly for extended periods.
