FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
The jacket is designed for weather resistance against light rain and wind, but it is not classified as fully seam-sealed waterproof technical gear.
Can I wear this for sailing?
While it draws inspiration from nautical heritage and is suitable for casual coastal use, it is not intended for professional-grade, high-seas sailing.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Does the jacket come in different materials?
Yes, several variants of the Storm Sailor Jacket are constructed with high-quality polyester for durability.
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
It serves best as an outer shell in moderate temperatures; for extreme cold, it is recommended to layer a warm mid-layer underneath.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems to decrease over time
Reactivate the outer layer by tumble drying on low heat or using a fabric-safe water-repellent spray treatment.
Zipper feels stiff or sticky
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or graphite to ensure smooth movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always follow the care label instructions sewn into the interior. Generally, use a mild detergent and wash on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the weather-resistant coating. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the material's performance. For compatibility, the jacket is designed as an outer layer; during colder months, it pairs well with a fleece or mid-layer sweater. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
