FAQs

What is 'garment-dyed'?

Garment dyeing is a process where the fabric is dyed after it has been constructed into a garment. This often results in a softer feel and a unique, textured color appearance, like the olive tone on this blouson.

How do I know which size to choose?

Refer to the size chart provided in the product description. The blouson has a 'wide, short fit' (wide body, shorter length), so consider this when selecting your size based on your preferred fit and body measurements.

Can I wear this in heavy rain?

The blouson is quick-drying after light rain and windproof, but it is not designed for heavy downpours. It's best suited for light precipitation and wind protection.

What should I wear under this blouson?

Due to its lightweight nature and layering design, you can wear a t-shirt, a long-sleeve shirt, or a light sweater underneath, depending on the weather and your desired style.

How do I clean the blouson to prevent color bleed?

Wash separately from other garments, especially on the first few washes. Use cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid prolonged soaking and do not tumble dry on high heat. Always check the care label for specific instructions.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the hood is gathered, contributing to a secure fit around the head.

What is the material and its benefits?

The blouson is made of 100% nylon. This material is lightweight, windproof, and quick-drying, making it ideal for everyday wear and light weather conditions.

Troubleshooting

Color transfer onto other garments.

Avoid wearing or storing with light-colored items when the blouson is wet. Wash separately on the first few washes.

Fit is too loose or too wide.

Utilize the adjustable drawstring and stopper at the hem to cinch the waist and achieve a more tailored fit. Gathered cuffs also help secure the sleeves.

Reduced water repellency or wind protection.

Ensure the garment is clean and dry. For severely diminished performance, consider a suitable reproofing treatment designed for nylon outerwear, following product instructions carefully.
