FAQs

How waterproof is the Ilse Jacobsen Raincoat?

The raincoat has a waterproof rating of 5000 mm, which means it is highly resistant to water and suitable for protection during medium to heavy showers.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is detachable. It is secured with poppers and features an artificial leather strap for adjustment.

What material is this raincoat made from?

It is made from 100% Polyester tricot with a rubberized PU (Polyurethane) coating, which gives it its waterproof properties.

How should I clean my raincoat?

For best results, wipe clean with a damp cloth. For more thorough cleaning, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Do not use bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Always air dry completely.

Is the raincoat breathable?

The rubberized PU material, while excellent for waterproofing, is not designed for high breathability like some technical sports fabrics. It prioritizes keeping water out.

What is an A-line design?

An A-line design refers to a silhouette that is narrow at the top (shoulders) and gradually widens towards the hem, resembling the letter 'A'. This cut offers a flattering look and comfortable movement.

What is the benefit of a 2-way zip?

A 2-way zip allows you to open the zipper from both the top and the bottom. This is useful for increasing comfort when sitting, providing ventilation, or accessing pockets underneath the raincoat without fully unzipping the coat.

Does this raincoat come in other sizes or colors?

While this guide specifically covers the Tan, Size M raincoat, Ilse Jacobsen offers this style in a range of sizes and colours. Please check product listings for available variants.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be seeping through the fabric.

First, check if the zip is fully closed and the hood is properly adjusted. Examine the raincoat for any small tears or damage to the PU coating. For persistent issues, ensure the care instructions are followed strictly, as improper cleaning can sometimes affect waterproofing. If the issue persists and no damage is visible, it might indicate a rare manufacturing defect.

The 2-way zipper feels stiff or is difficult to operate.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (available at outdoor or craft stores) or even a graphite pencil along the teeth of the zipper to help it move more smoothly. Operate the zipper gently up and down several times after application.

The raincoat has an unusual odor.

This can sometimes occur with rubberized materials. Hang the raincoat in a well-ventilated area outdoors (away from direct sunlight) for several hours or overnight to air it out. Ensure it is completely dry. If the odor persists, a gentle hand wash with a small amount of mild, unscented soap can help, followed by thorough air drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Ilse Jacobsen Raincoat is straightforward. Simply put it on over your chosen outfit. The 2-way YKK zip allows for easy fastening and adjustment. If rain is expected, attach the hood using the poppers and adjust the artificial leather strap for a snug fit around your face.

Compatibility

This raincoat's A-line design and relaxed fit are designed to be compatible with a wide range of clothing. You can comfortably wear it over:

  • Light layers: T-shirts, blouses, light sweaters.
  • Medium layers: Jumpers, thin cardigans, light jackets.
  • It's a versatile outer layer that complements both casual and smart-casual attire. Consider the `M` size for a comfortable fit over your usual clothing.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and maintain the waterproof integrity of your raincoat. Always refer to the specific care label on your garment, but general guidelines for this material are:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap for surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Do not use bleach or harsh detergents as these can damage the PU coating.
  • Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the raincoat to air dry completely, away from direct heat or sunlight. Ensure it is fully dry before storing to prevent mildew.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can damage the rubberized PU coating.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, ideally hanging on a broad hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid folding it tightly for extended periods to prevent creasing of the PU coating.
