- Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
- No. Gabardine is a light woven twill, so it works as a spring or fall layer. In cold weather you would wear it over a sweater or under a heavier coat.
- Does gabardine keep off rain?
- It sheds brief drizzle because the twill weave is tight, but it is not waterproof. A steady rain will soak through.
- How does it compare with Gucci's nylon jackets?
- This one is more structured and dressier. Gucci's nylon styles are lighter and more casual, closer to a windbreaker.
- What sizes does it come in?
- It is offered in small through large. Check the size chart, since Gucci's cut tends to run trim through the chest and shoulders.
- How should I care for it?
- Follow the care label. Gabardine usually tolerates gentle dry cleaning or a cool wash, but heat can shrink it and dull the finish.
- Where is the Gucci Midnight Blue Gabardine Jacket cheapest?
- At Balardi, for $1,600.00, as of our latest check.
