FAQs
What is the primary material of this jacket?
The shell fabric is 100% Polyester Weft Knit with a brushed back, weighing 310g. The contrast fabric is 94% Polyester and 6% Elastane.
How many pockets does this jacket have?
The jacket features a total of 5 pockets: 1 chest pocket with a zip closure, 2 side zipper pockets, and 2 internal pockets.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is made from fleece and is not designed to be waterproof. It offers warmth and comfort but limited protection against heavy rain.
Can this jacket be worn by both men and women?
The product description lists it as 'Unisex', making it suitable for all genders.
What is the purpose of the reinforced panels?
The reinforced shoulders and back panels are designed to offer added durability in areas that experience heavy use and wear.
How should I wash the jacket?
Machine wash warm, maximum 40°C (104°F). Do not bleach, tumble dry low, and iron at a low temperature. Avoid dry cleaning.
What does 'dropped back hem' mean?
A dropped back hem means the back of the jacket is cut longer than the front, providing better coverage and protection when you bend over or move.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the puller. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or wax can help.
Fleece material is pilling.
This can occur with regular wear. Follow care instructions precisely, especially regarding washing and drying, to minimize pilling. Avoid excessive friction.
Fit is not as expected.
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Portwest and compare measurements. Consider the 'contemporary fit' when selecting your size, as it may be slimmer than traditional styles. Check if other sizes are available.
