FAQs
Can I machine wash the Roman Waxed Longline Hooded Coat?
No, this coat is made from waxed cotton and should not be machine washed. Machine washing can strip the wax coating and damage the fabric. Please sponge clean with cold water and a soft brush, and then air dry naturally.
Is this coat completely waterproof?
The waxed finish provides excellent water resistance, making it ideal for keeping unexpected showers at bay and light to moderate rain. It is designed to repel rain effectively, but is generally considered water-resistant rather than fully waterproof for heavy downpours.
What is the length of the coat?
The length of this Roman Waxed Longline Hooded Coat is approximately 92cm, offering significant coverage below the waist.
How do I ensure the coat remains water-resistant over time?
To maintain its water-resistant properties, it is highly recommended to re-proof the coat periodically (e.g., once a year, depending on usage and exposure) with a specialized waxed cotton dressing or spray. This replenishes the protective wax layer.
What kind of fit does this coat have?
This coat features a regular fit and is designed to be true to size, allowing you to select your usual dress size for an optimal and comfortable fit.
Can I wear this coat in colder weather?
Yes, its longline design and material offer good coverage and some insulation. It is perfect for layering over sweaters, jumpers, and other warm clothing during cooler months, providing an additional protective layer against the elements.
Troubleshooting
My coat no longer repels water effectively
This is normal for waxed cotton over time, especially with regular exposure to rain. You will need to re-proof your coat using a specialized waxed cotton dressing or spray. Follow the product instructions carefully for the best results.
My coat has a stain or looks dirty
Do not machine wash the coat. Instead, sponge clean the affected area with cold water and a soft brush. For stubborn marks, use a cleaner specifically designed for waxed cotton materials.
The fabric feels stiff or rigid
Waxed cotton can feel stiff initially, particularly when new or in colder temperatures. Regular wear will help soften the fabric. Ensure proper storage by hanging it to maintain its shape and allow the fabric to relax naturally.
The coat doesn't fit quite right around the waist
Utilize the adjustable waist toggles located inside or on the sides of the coat. Cinch them in for a more fitted silhouette, or loosen them for a more relaxed and comfortable feel.

Care
To maintain the water-resistant properties and appearance of your waxed cotton coat, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Do not machine wash, tumble dry, iron, or dry clean. Sponge clean with cold water and a soft brush to gently remove dirt. For tougher marks, use a specialized waxed cotton cleaning product.
- Drying: Always allow the coat to air dry naturally in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from direct heat sources or prolonged sunlight, which can damage the wax finish.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the waxed finish may diminish, reducing its water repellency. Consider re-proofing your coat with a suitable waxed cotton dressing or spray to restore its protective qualities, typically once a year depending on usage.
- Storage: Store your coat in a cool, dry place, ideally hung to help maintain its shape and prevent creases.
