Troubleshooting

Pockets are sewn shut

Carefully use a seam ripper or small, sharp scissors to unpick the holding stitches along the pocket opening. Avoid cutting the fabric of the jacket.

Jacket wrinkles easily

Steam the jacket on a low setting or use a cool iron on the reverse side. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before wearing or storing. A professional dry cleaner can also handle pressing.

Satin lapels appear dull
