Trims & notes
• 15 mm ring-prong snaps x5
• 2 cm woven elastic (cuffs and back hem, ~120 cm)
• Fusible (collar outer, placket)
• Taffeta lining
• Woven main label (back neck)
• Care/content label
• Snap placement is the fit risk on a cropped body. Set the top snap 3 cm below the collar seam; any higher and the collar will not sit open.
• Do not let the factory substitute poppers for ring-prong snaps. Poppers pull through 160 GSM nylon within a season; ring-prongs need a reinforcement patch, which should be specified as a 2.5 cm fused square behind each.
• Elastic through the back hem only. A full elasticated hem on a cropped jacket rides up and the front placket bows outward.
• Taslan shows needle holes permanently. Ask for a fresh needle at the start of the run and no unpicking on the shell.
• This is a wind layer. Do not put a waterproof claim on it without a taped-seam sample and a hydrostatic-head test result.
