Designed in the classic trench-coat silhouette, the Alva is a great looking coat that also comes with heaps of practical features. Its fully taped seams and waterproof coating ensures you keep the rain out and the warmth in, which is ideal for when the rain pours and the winds blow. Also, to ensure you’re ready for whatever the weather throws at you, the removable and adjustable hood comes complete with drawcords at the opening, while the handy two-way zip provides extra mobility. What’s more, the toggle adjusters on the waist offer that “cinched-in” feel, which is both figure-flattering and great for keeping your torso toasty. With style and substance in abundance, the Alva is your trusty companion for keeping you dry and stylish in the unpredictable British weather. Machine washable. 100% Polyester.

FAQs
Is this jacket truly waterproof?
Yes, the TOG24 Alva Jacket features both fully taped seams and a waterproof coating to effectively keep rain out and ensure you stay dry.
How do I adjust the hood?
The hood is removable and adjustable, equipped with drawcords at the opening that allow you to customize the fit around your face for optimal protection.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, the jacket is machine washable. Always follow the care instructions on the label inside the jacket for best results, typically using a cool wash and avoiding fabric softeners.
What material is the jacket made from?
The TOG24 Alva Jacket is constructed from 100% Polyester, providing durability and water resistance.
What is the purpose of the two-way zip?
The two-way zip offers enhanced mobility and ventilation. You can unzip it from the bottom to allow for greater freedom of movement, especially when walking or sitting, without fully opening the jacket from the top.
How do the toggle adjusters on the waist work?
The toggle adjusters on the waist allow you to cinch in the jacket, creating a figure-flattering fit and helping to keep your torso toasty by trapping warm air close to your body.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff or restrictive during movement.
Utilize the two-way zip by unzipping the bottom portion slightly to allow for more freedom of movement, especially when sitting or bending. Ensure the waist toggles aren't cinched too tightly if you need more room.
Waterproofing seems less effective than expected.
Ensure the fully taped seams are intact. Check the care label for washing instructions; improper washing or the use of fabric softeners can degrade the waterproof coating. Consider re-treating the jacket with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after washing if water is no longer beading on the surface.
Hood keeps falling down or doesn't stay in place.
Adjust the drawcords on the hood opening to tighten it around your face. Ensure the hood is properly positioned over your head before tightening for a secure fit.
Jacket doesn't feel warm enough in cold weather.
While the jacket keeps warmth in, it's designed as an outer protective layer. For colder conditions, ensure you are wearing appropriate insulating mid-layers underneath to provide sufficient warmth.

Setup: The Alva Jacket is ready to wear straight out of its packaging. Simply adjust the hood and waist toggles to your desired fit. ## Compatibility: This jacket is designed for general outdoor use and is compatible with various layering systems. Wear it over base layers and mid-layers for added warmth in colder conditions. It's suitable for everyday wear, commutes, and leisurely outdoor activities. ## Care: The TOG24 Alva Jacket is machine washable, making maintenance straightforward. To best preserve its waterproof properties and overall condition, follow these steps: 1. Close all zips and fastenings before washing. 2. Wash at a cool temperature with a technical outerwear cleaner or mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the waterproof coating. 3. Do not bleach. 4. Line dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting, if permitted on the care label, to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Check the specific care label inside the jacket for precise instructions. 5. Do not iron directly over any waterproof coatings or printed logos. The jacket is made from `100% Polyester`.
