FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The Piper Showerproof Jacket is designed for light rain and changeable weather. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
How do I know if I've chosen the correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Barbour International, or compare the garment's measurements to a jacket you already own that fits well. The model is a size XS.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
This jacket provides a layer of protection against wind and light rain, but it is not heavily insulated. For colder weather, layering with warmer garments underneath is recommended.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% polyester.
How should I clean the jacket?
The jacket is machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Does the cream color stain easily?
While cream is a lighter color, the polyester material is generally easy to spot clean. Promptly address any stains according to the care instructions to maintain the jacket's appearance.
What are the 'double-entry' patch pockets?
This means each pocket has two ways to access it – typically from the top with a flap and from the side. This offers versatility for storing items and keeping hands warm.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not fully waterproof
Ensure the jacket is properly zipped and all seams are intact. For extended use, re-waterproofing treatments may be beneficial, following product instructions.
Drawcord is difficult to adjust
Check the drawcord channel for any obstructions. Gently work the cord back and forth to loosen it. Ensure the cord lock is functioning correctly.
Pockets feel bulky
Distribute items evenly within the double-entry pockets. Avoid overstuffing the pockets to maintain the jacket's shape.
Color fading after washing
Always wash with similar colors using a mild detergent and cold water. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat can help preserve color.
