FAQs
What is 50 Fili Wax fabric?
50 Fili Wax is C.P. Company's iconic fabric, a blend of nylon and cotton, treated with a semi-transparent, water-resistant synthetic coating that gives it a distinctive waxed appearance and enhanced protection against the elements.
How is the double garment dyeing process different?
This process dyes the nylon and cotton fibers within the fabric separately or sequentially, resulting in unique tonal contrasts and a depth of color that is characteristic of C.P. Company garments.
Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?
No, machine washing is not recommended. The jacket should only be dry cleaned professionally due to its specialized fabric treatment and dyeing.
How do I adjust the fit of the jacket?
The jacket features an adjustable drawstring hem and an adjustable Explorer hood, allowing you to customize the fit for comfort and protection.
Is the jacket completely waterproof?
The jacket is water-resistant due to its coating and anti-drip treatment, making it suitable for light rain. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for prolonged heavy downpours.
What does 'regular fit' mean for this jacket?
Regular fit indicates a standard silhouette that is neither too tight nor too loose, allowing for comfortable layering over other garments.
Are the front pockets fully waterproof?
The front pockets are concealed with flap and snap button closure, offering protection against light moisture. They are not fully waterproof.
Troubleshooting
Jacket appears to lose its waxed finish
The waxed finish can naturally diminish with wear. Professional dry cleaning with appropriate re-waxing services might be an option, consult a specialist cleaner. Avoid home re-waxing attempts which could damage the fabric.
Uneven color or slight color bleed
This is a characteristic of the double garment dyeing process, intended to create unique tonal variations. If the variation is significant or unexpected, contact the retailer.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can be carefully applied to the teeth if necessary, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
