FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

This jacket is designed to handle 'unpredictable weather,' which typically means it offers protection against light rain and drizzles. It is not fully waterproof and is not recommended for heavy downpours.

What seasons is this jacket best for?

The jacket is ideal for transitional seasons such as spring and autumn, and cooler summer evenings. Its material blend makes it suitable for layering in slightly colder weather.

How should I wash this jacket?

The jacket is machine washable. We recommend washing it with similar colours, using a mild detergent, and following the specific temperature instructions on the garment's care label, typically a cool wash cycle.

What is the material composition of the jacket?

The main body of the jacket is composed of 51% cotton and 49% nylon. The trims are 100% polyester, providing a comfortable and durable blend.

Does the jacket have internal pockets?

The product description mentions two snap-fastened pockets at the sides. It does not specify any internal pockets.

How do I choose the right size?

Info needed: [Refer to the official Lyle and Scott size chart for accurate measurements. Consider your usual jacket size and whether you plan to wear thick layers underneath.]

Can I iron this jacket?

Info needed: [Please check the care label inside the jacket for specific ironing instructions. Generally, if ironing is permitted, it should be done on a low heat setting, potentially inside out, and avoiding direct contact with any logos or trims.]

Troubleshooting

Colour appears faded after washing

Ensure you are washing with cold water and a colour-safe detergent. Always wash with similar colours and turn the jacket inside out before washing to help preserve the exterior colour.

Zipper feels stiff or sticky

Gently rub a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Fabric feels rough or stiff after drying

If air drying, ensure it's not over-dried in direct sunlight. If machine drying (if permitted by care label), use a low heat setting and consider adding dryer balls to help soften the fabric. Using a fabric softener during washing can also help.

Small pills or bobbles appear on the fabric surface

This is common with blended fabrics. Use a fabric shaver or a lint roller to gently remove the pills. To prevent future pilling, wash the jacket inside out and avoid excessive friction during wear or washing.

Jacket doesn't seem to offer enough warmth

This jacket is designed as a light to mid-layer. For colder conditions, consider layering it over a warm sweater or under a more insulated outer coat to enhance warmth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Cons

  • No Hood Adjustment: Info needed: [Does the hood have drawstrings or adjustable features?]

  • Trainers, boots, or casual shoes
  • As a layering piece over sweaters or under heavier winter coats.

Care Instructions

Proper care will ensure your Lyle and Scott Zip Through Hooded Jacket maintains its quality and appearance for years to come.

  1. Machine Wash: Machine wash the jacket. Always check the specific care label inside your garment for temperature recommendations, typically a cool or warm wash cycle.
  2. Use Mild Detergent: Opt for a mild detergent to protect the fabric's integrity and colour.
  3. Wash with Similar Colours: To prevent colour bleeding or transfer, wash your purple jacket with similar colours.
  4. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach, as this can damage the fabric and cause discolouration.
  5. Drying: Info needed: [Is tumble drying allowed? If so, what temperature? If not, should it be air-dried flat or hung?]. A general recommendation is to air dry flat or hang dry to preserve shape and fabric quality.
  6. Ironing: Info needed: [Are there specific ironing instructions? E.g., low heat, inside out, avoid logo?]
  7. Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place, ideally hung to maintain its shape and prevent wrinkles.
