FAQs

What is gabardine fabric?

Gabardine is a tightly woven fabric characterized by its diagonal ridges, made from cotton, wool, or a blend. It is known for being durable, breathable, and resistant to wrinkles and water.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer or manufacturer. Measure your chest, waist, and sleeve length, and compare them to the garment's specifications. For this model, consider its regular fit when choosing your size.

Can this overshirt be worn in wet weather?

While gabardine offers some water resistance due to its tight weave, it is not a waterproof material. It can withstand light rain or drizzle but is best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.

Is the CP Company logo durable?

The rubberised CP Company logo is designed for durability. However, to maintain its appearance, avoid direct high heat from ironing and refrain from using harsh detergents or solvents on it.

What occasions is this overshirt suitable for?

This overshirt is versatile and suitable for smart-casual occasions, daily wear, travel, and layering during transitional weather. It bridges the gap between casual and formal wear.

Does the overshirt have internal pockets?

Based on the description, the overshirt features two large *concealed zip entry pockets* on the exterior. There is no mention of internal pockets.

How should I store this garment?

Store the overshirt folded neatly in a cool, dry place. Hanging is also an option, but ensure it is not overcrowded in the wardrobe to prevent excessive creasing.

Troubleshooting

Fading color after washing

Ensure you are washing with like colors in cold water and using a gentle cycle. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.

Wrinkles persisting

While wrinkle-resistant, heavy creasing can occur. Try a low-heat iron on the reverse side of the fabric, or steam the garment.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently rub a pencil graphite or a bit of wax along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.

Minor snags or pulls in the fabric

For small snags, try to gently pull the fabric back into place from the reverse side. Avoid pulling at the snagged thread.
