FAQs

What does 'balloon fit' mean?

Balloon fit refers to a relaxed, wider silhouette that tapers slightly, offering a comfortable and contemporary shape.

What is the material of the hoodie?

The hoodie is made from 100% heavyweight, unbrushed cotton jersey.

Why is the color described as 'washed black'?

The 'washed black' appearance comes from the garment-dyeing process, which gives the fabric a saturated, slightly faded, and softer look.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the general sizing guidelines for apparel. The product description notes that the model is 6'0.5" and wears a size medium, which can serve as a reference point.

Can this hoodie be worn in mild weather?

While it's a heavyweight hoodie, the full zip allows for ventilation. It can be worn in milder weather by unzipping it, but it's primarily designed for cooler conditions.

Is the woven label stitched or printed?

The Nelson Zip Hoodie features a woven Square Label, indicating it is a stitched-on fabric patch.

What is the primary benefit of the loopback construction?

The loopback construction on the inside of the fabric provides a soft, tactile feel against the skin and adds to the garment's durability.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the zipper teeth.

Shrinkage after washing.

Ensure you are washing in cold water and tumble drying on low heat or air drying. Avoid high heat during drying.

Color bleeding onto other garments.

Always wash with like colors, especially during the first few washes, as garment-dyed items can release excess dye.

Hood drawstring becomes uneven.

Gently pull on both ends of the drawstring to even it out. If it gets completely pulled through, a safety pin can be used to re-thread it.
