FAQs
What material is the Elder Hooded Coat made of?
The coat is made from 100% polyester.
How should I wash this coat?
You should machine wash it at 30°C on a delicate cycle. Avoid high temperatures and harsh washing processes.
Can I tumble dry the coat?
No, the coat should not be tumble dried. Air drying is recommended.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is integral to the coat design and cannot be detached.
How many pockets does the coat have?
The coat features a total of eight pockets: two snap chest pockets, two snap flap lower pockets, two side pockets, one zipped inner pocket, and one snap inner pocket.
What does 'two-way zip closure' mean?
A two-way zip allows you to zip the coat up from the bottom or down from the top, offering more flexibility for ventilation and movement.
Can I iron the coat?
No, the care instructions explicitly state not to iron the coat.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If stiffness persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.
Snaps are difficult to fasten or unfasten.
Check that the fabric around the snap is not bunched up. Apply steady pressure when fastening or unfastening. If a snap appears loose, it may require professional repair.
Coat feels less water-repellent over time.
Polyester can lose some water-repellency with wear. Consider using a re-waterproofing spray specifically designed for synthetic fabrics, following the product's instructions. Avoid fabric softeners during washing, as they can impact water resistance.
Drawstring for hood is tangled.
Carefully try to untangle the drawstring by hand. If necessary, use a safety pin to thread it back through the hood channel.
