FAQs
Is the jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket is made from cotton canvas and is not treated as a waterproof garment. It is best suited for dry or light-drizzle conditions.
How should I choose my size?
The OG Detroit Jacket features an 'original' boxy fit. If you prefer a fitted look, consider sizing down from your usual size.
Is there a lining inside?
This specific OG model features an unlined construction, making it lighter and more breathable than lined versions.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend washing cold on a gentle cycle to maintain the color and fabric longevity.
What does '12 oz Dearborn canvas' mean?
This refers to the weight and material of the fabric. 12 oz is a heavy-duty weight, ensuring significant durability for workwear applications.
Troubleshooting
Stiff fabric texture after washing
Canvas naturally softens with wear; use a fabric conditioner or tumble dry on a low-heat setting for a short period to accelerate the softening process.
Difficulty with zipper movement
Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to ensure smooth operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As this garment is made of durable organic cotton canvas, maintenance is straightforward but requires attention to prevent damage to the fabric finish. Always follow the care label instructions; generally, it is recommended to wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the 'Shady Green' color and the integrity of the cotton fibers.
Avoid using harsh bleaches or high-heat drying, which can lead to excessive shrinkage or premature fading of the canvas. For best results, hang dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Given its boxy fit, check the size chart carefully against your preferred measurements, as this model runs larger than slim-fit fashion jackets.
