FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash this jacket. Please refer to the care instructions: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Do not bleach, do not iron, and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

What season is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is ideal for transitional seasons such as spring and autumn, or cool summer evenings. Its lightweight design and water resistance make it perfect for changeable weather conditions where a light protective layer is needed.

Is the hood removable?

No, the hood on this particular jacket is integrated and is not designed to be removable. However, it is adjustable with a drawcord, allowing you to customize its fit for added protection.

What type of fit does this jacket have?

This jacket features a regular fit. This design provides a comfortable and relaxed silhouette, allowing for natural movement and making it easy to layer over other clothing items without feeling restrictive.

What material is the jacket made of?

The outer shell of this Lyle and Scott Zip Through Hooded Jacket is made from Polyester, which contributes to its lightweight feel, durability, and water-resistant properties.

Troubleshooting

Water is no longer beading on the fabric, or the jacket feels less water-resistant.

The jacket's Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish might be less effective due to dirt, oils, or repeated washing. Ensure you are washing according to care instructions. For best results, clean the jacket thoroughly and consider using a wash-in or spray-on DWR restorative product specifically designed for outerwear. Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dry after treatment to reactivate the DWR.

Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck during operation.

First, check for any fabric, threads, or debris caught in the zipper teeth or slider. If clear, gently rub a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth on both sides of the zipper. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause permanent damage.

Jacket feels less comfortable or seems to have changed shape after washing.

Verify that you strictly followed the care instructions provided, especially regarding wash temperature and drying method. High heat during washing or drying can cause polyester to shrink or lose its shape. Always use a cold wash and low tumble dry or air dry.

Care Instructions

Proper care is essential to maintain the jacket's water resistance, comfort, and longevity. Always check the garment's internal care label for specific instructions.

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (up to 30°C) with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle to protect the fabric's integrity.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, and fabric softeners, as these can degrade the water-resistant coating and fabric quality.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. High heat can damage polyester fibers.
  4. Bleaching: Do not bleach under any circumstances.
  5. Ironing: Do not iron. The polyester material and any water-resistant coatings can be damaged by direct heat.
  6. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
