FAQs

What is the main benefit of the perforated side panels?

Can I put my phone in the pockets?

How should I wash this jacket?

It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleaching or tumble drying. Reshape while damp and dry flat.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is primarily made of polyester, which provides durability and a smart finish.

Is this jacket suitable for all equestrian disciplines?

Yes, its classic design makes it suitable for various disciplines such as show jumping, dressage, and eventing where a smart, traditional appearance is required.

What does 'structured back belt' mean?

The structured back belt refers to a design element on the back of the jacket that maintains a defined shape, contributing to a smart and tailored silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears wrinkled after washing

Reshape the jacket while damp and allow it to dry flat. Iron on a low heat setting if necessary.

Zippers are stiff

Gently pull the zipper up and down a few times. If stiffness persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) can be rubbed on the zipper teeth.

Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten

Ensure the fabric around the poppers is not bunched. If they feel very tight, a gentle pull might be required initially. Avoid excessive force.

Faint white marks after drying

This can sometimes occur with polyester fabrics. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid overwashing. A cool iron can often remove these marks.
