FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why does the Original run small?
The Original is constructed with a firm, traditional workwear knit that has less stretch than modern jersey cuts. We recommend sizing up one size from your usual fit.
Is the metal zip durable for outdoor work?
Yes. The metal 1/4 zip is corrosion-resistant and designed to function reliably after repeated use in rain, mud, and exposure.
What does a 65% Wool, 35% Nylon blend offer?
Wool provides natural insulation and breathability; Nylon adds tensile strength and abrasion resistance. Together they create a jersey significantly tougher than pure wool.
Can the Original be dry cleaned?
Yes. Dry cleaning is the recommended method for best garment longevity. Hand washing in cold water with wool detergent is also suitable.
