FAQs

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

No, you must never machine wash or dry clean a waxed cotton jacket as it will permanently strip the protective finish.

How often does it need re-waxing?

It is generally recommended to re-wax your jacket once a year, or sooner if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.

Is the hood detachable?

The hood is designed as an integral part of the jacket for optimal weather protection.

Does the jacket come in other sizes?

Yes, this model is available in sizes ranging from S to XL to accommodate various body types.

Can I wear this in extreme cold?

The jacket is water and wind-resistant but is not heavily insulated; it is best worn with additional layers in freezing temperatures.

Will the wax transfer to car seats or furniture?

When the jacket is new or freshly waxed, it can be slightly tacky. It is best to avoid prolonged contact with light-colored upholstery until it has been worn in.

Troubleshooting

The jacket surface feels dry or loses its water-repellent sheen.

The jacket requires a re-waxing treatment to restore the protective finish.

There are white creases appearing on the fabric.

These are natural in waxed cotton and can be smoothed out with a hairdryer on low heat from a safe distance to redistribute the wax.

Persistent dirt or mud on the exterior.

Allow the mud to dry completely and brush it off; use a cold-water-dampened cloth to remove remaining marks without applying pressure that might rub off the wax.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is ready to wear immediately upon arrival, though it is recommended to let it air out in a well-ventilated space if it has been tightly packed during shipping. For longevity, store the jacket on a sturdy wooden or padded hanger to preserve the shape of the shoulders. To clean, use a damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt; never use soaps or detergents as these will strip the wax coating. Periodically, you should apply a fresh coat of wax to maintain the jacket's waterproof capabilities, typically once a year depending on the frequency of use. Keep away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent the wax from drying out or migrating.
