Troubleshooting
Jacket arrived creased
Hang the jacket in a steamy bathroom for about 15-20 minutes or iron on a low heat setting while slightly damp. Ensure the iron is not too hot to avoid damaging the cotton fibers.
Color bleeding during hand wash
Always wash dark or heavily colored fabrics separately the first few times, even when hand washing. Use cold water and a mild detergent. Test a small, inconspicuous area with a damp white cloth to check for colorfastness before washing the entire garment.
Hood attachment seems loose
Check the buttons or snaps that secure the hood to the jacket collar. Ensure they are properly aligned and fastened. If the issue persists, the attachment mechanism might need repair.
Jacket feels stiff after washing
100% cotton can sometimes feel stiff after washing. Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not over-drying. Gentle ironing on a low heat can help restore softness. Avoid fabric softeners, as they may not be suitable for the material and can affect breathability.
