FAQs
What is the key benefit of the organic cotton used?
The organic cotton is GOTS-certified, ensuring it is grown without harmful pesticides or synthetic fertilizers, making it more sustainable and gentler on the skin.
How will the jacket age over time?
The rigid herringbone twill is designed to age beautifully, developing a unique patina and softening with wear. The piece-dyed finish will also contribute to its evolving character.
Is the fit true to size?
The jacket features a regular fit, designed to be clean and versatile. It's recommended to consult the brand's sizing chart for specific measurements.
Can I machine dry the jacket?
Air drying is recommended to preserve the fabric's texture and prevent shrinkage. If tumble drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
What does 'rigid herringbone twill' mean?
This refers to a durable cotton fabric woven in a distinctive zig-zag pattern (herringbone). 'Rigid' indicates it has not been pre-washed or softened extensively, giving it a stiffer feel initially that breaks in over time.
Are the buttons replaceable?
Yes, the Corozo buttons are standard and can be replaced by a tailor or cobbler if damaged.
What inspired the design of this jacket?
The design is inspired by classic workwear, specifically vintage French and military styles, known for their practicality and durability.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels too stiff.
The rigid fabric will naturally soften with wear. Consider a gentle wash cycle as per care instructions to help accelerate the break-in period.
Color appears uneven after washing.
This is a characteristic of the piece-dyeing process and is intended to enhance the jacket's vintage look. Ensure you are washing with similar colors to minimize any unintended color transfer.
Seams feel uncomfortable.
As the fabric softens with wear, the seams will become more pliable. Wearing the jacket regularly will help it conform to your body.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
