Drawstring Plaid Button Up Jacket with Chest Pockets | Blush Pink / XS 100100261707028

How to measure

For accurate garment measurements, lay the jacket flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles. Do not stretch the fabric.

Measuring the jacket (lay flat)

• Chest (pit‑to‑pit): Button the jacket. Measure straight across from seam to seam at the armpit. Double this number to get the full chest circumference.
• Shoulder width: Measure from the outside of one shoulder seam to the other across the top.
• Sleeve length: Measure from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. (Or measure center‑back neck to cuff for full arm length.)
• Back length: From the center back at the base of the collar straight down to the hem.
• Front length (HPS): From the highest point of the shoulder (HPS) where the shoulder meets the neck, straight down to the hem.
• Hem width: Measure across the bottom hem straight across; double for circumference.
• Pocket placement: Measure from shoulder seam or center front to the top of the chest pocket if you need placement details.

Measuring your body for the best fit

• Chest/bust: Wrap the tape around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
• Shoulder width: Measure between the bony points at the top of each shoulder.
• Arm length: With your arm relaxed at your side, measure from the shoulder bone down to the wrist.
• Torso length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (HPS) down to where you want the jacket to sit.

Match garment to body: Compare your body chest measurement to the jacket chest measurement (pit‑to‑pit × 2). Add desired ease for layering:

• Fitted over a tee: add 1–2" (2.5–5 cm)
• Layering over a light sweater: add 3–4" (7.5–10 cm)
• Layering over a hoodie or thick knit: add 4–6" (10–15 cm)

Materials & construction

This style—Drawstring Plaid Button Up Jacket with Chest Pockets—is typically a midweight woven plaid overshirt/jacket. Common materials and components:

• Outer fabric: Brushed cotton flannel or cotton/poly blend — soft, breathable, warm, and with a visible plaid weave.
• Lining & pocket bags: Lightweight polyester or cotton for smooth hand-feel and durability.
• Trims & hardware: Resin or corozo buttons; cotton/poly drawstring with plastic or metal aglets; reinforced stitching at pockets and stress points.
• Construction: Button front, chest patch pockets, drawstring at hem to adjust silhouette.

Material notes: 100% cotton offers natural breathability and softness but can shrink if washed in hot water; cotton/poly blends reduce shrinkage and increase durability. Check the garment label or product page for exact fiber content and any special finishes (water repellent, brushed/sueded nap, etc.).

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

1. Check the care label first. Follow any factory instructions if present.
2. Prep: Button up, tie in or tuck the drawstring, and turn the jacket inside out to protect the surface and buttons.
3. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors using mild detergent. Avoid bleach and harsh chemicals.
4. Stain care: Pre‑treat spots with a gentle stain remover; test on an inside seam first.
5. Drying: Reshape while damp and line dry or lay flat. If necessary, tumble dry low and remove promptly to reduce shrinkage and wrinkles.
6. Ironing: Iron inside out on low‑medium heat or use a steamer. Avoid high heat on trims and drawstring tips.
7. Storage: Hang on a wide hanger to preserve shoulder shape; avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading.
8. Maintenance: Re‑secure loose buttons promptly, reinforce pocket corners if they show wear, and use a fabric shaver for pilling on brushed flannel.

If the jacket includes special materials (leather trim, sherpa, suede), follow the specific care recommendations for those trims—these often require spot cleaning or professional care.

Style tips

• Casual everyday: Wear unbuttoned over a plain tee or henley with straight-leg jeans and low-top sneakers.
• Layered fall look: Throw it over a thin hoodie or lightweight knit; finish with desert boots or work boots. Tighten the drawstring slightly to trap warmth.
• Smart‑casual: Button up and pair with chinos or tailored trousers and Chelsea boots for a cleaner silhouette.
• Balance proportions: Keep the jacket slightly roomy on top and pair with slimmer bottoms for a modern look.
• Color pairing: Pick one accent color from the plaid (navy, burgundy, cream, etc.) and echo it in a base layer or accessory for cohesion.
• Quick styling tricks: Roll the sleeves once for a relaxed vibe; half-tuck the front when buttoned for a contemporary finish; cinch the hem for a blouson shape.

Outfit examples: Weekend errands — plaid jacket + white tee + dark denim + sneakers. Date night — jacket buttoned + black turtleneck + slim chinos + Chelsea boots.
