FAQs

What seasons is this jacket suitable for?

This jacket is ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, and cool summer evenings. Its material blend offers comfort and light protection against wind and occasional light rain.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket is made from a cotton and nylon blend, which offers some resistance to light moisture and wind. However, it is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy rain.

How should I wash this jacket?

The jacket is machine washable. We recommend washing it on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water, with similar colours. Air dry or tumble dry on a very low setting if necessary.

Does the hood have adjustable drawstrings?

Info needed: The product description does not specify if the hood has adjustable drawstrings. Generally, hooded jackets may or may not include this feature.

What is the fit like?

Lyle and Scott typically offers a regular fit. For specific sizing guidance, please refer to the brand's official size chart or product measurements if available, to ensure the best fit.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the jacket features two side pockets that are snap-fastened, providing a secure place to store small essentials.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears wrinkled after washing.

After washing, gently shake out the jacket and hang it immediately on a sturdy hanger to air dry. If wrinkles persist, iron on a low heat setting from the inside, avoiding direct contact with the logo.

Zipper feels stiff or is sticking.

Ensure the zipper teeth are clean and free of debris. You can try rubbing a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Fading of colour over time.

To minimise fading, always wash the jacket inside out with cold water and a colour-safe detergent. Avoid excessive exposure to direct sunlight when drying or storing for prolonged periods.

Pockets feel stretched or misshapen.

Avoid overfilling the pockets with heavy or bulky items. When washing, ensure pockets are empty and reshape them while damp before air drying.

  • Functional Storage: Two snap-fastened pockets offer practical and secure storage for small essentials.

Cons

  • Specific Colour: The purple colour may not appeal to all users or easily match all wardrobes compared to more neutral tones.
  • No Specific Adjustable Features: > Info needed: Details on hood adjustability or hem/cuff adjustments are not provided, which could limit customisation for fit or weather protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Compatibility

  • Wardrobe: Designed for casual wear, it pairs well with jeans, chinos, shorts, and casual trousers. Its versatile colour can complement both neutral and bolder palettes.
  • Layering: Excellent for layering over t-shirts, polo shirts, sweaters, and light hoodies. It can also be worn under heavier winter coats for added warmth.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Lyle and Scott Zip Through Jacket, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Machine Wash: Always machine wash according to the instructions on the inner care label. Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water to protect the fabric blend.
  2. Colour Care: Wash with similar colours to prevent dye transfer.
  3. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, as these can damage the fabric and colour.
  4. Drying: It is recommended to air dry the jacket to preserve its shape and fabric integrity. Hang it on a sturdy hanger away from direct sunlight or heat. Tumble drying on a low setting may be possible, but air drying is preferred.
  5. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, turning the jacket inside out to protect the outer fabric and logo. Avoid ironing directly on the Golden Eagle logo.
