W5405 Padded Jacket - Mud Oversized Long Asymmetric Cold-Dyed Nylon 150g Wadding Oversized Hood Concealed Snap Closure Drawstring Hem Women's Italian
Cold-Dyed Nylon. 150g Wadding. Asymmetric. Oversized Hood. The Padded Jacket That Earns Its Mud.
The W5405 is an oversized long asymmetric padded jacket in cold-dyed nylon — 100% polyester shell and lining — filled with 150g wadding, with an oversized hood, concealed snap closure, pockets, and a drawstring hem. The cold dyeing is the defining process: the jacket is dyed at low temperature after construction, creating a colour with natural variation unique to each piece. In mud, the cold-dyed variation creates a warm, earthy brown-grey where lighter areas read as sand and darker areas read as deep brown. No two W5405 mud jackets are identical. Made in Italy by LA HAINE INSIDE US.
Why This Jacket Is Different
- Cold-Dyed Nylon in Mud: The jacket is dyed at low temperature after construction — a process that creates a colour with natural variation across the nylon surface. In mud, the cold-dyed variation creates a warm, earthy brown-grey: lighter areas where the dye absorbed less, darker areas where it absorbed more. The variation is determined by the construction of the jacket — seams, folds, the wadding channels, and areas of tension absorb the dye differently, creating a colour that reflects the structure of the piece. No two W5405 mud jackets are identical.
- 150g Wadding Fill: The jacket is filled with 150g of synthetic wadding (ovatta) — a medium-weight fill that provides warmth without the bulk of heavier fills. At 150g, the wadding creates a jacket that is warm enough for cold weather while remaining lightweight and packable. Unlike down (which requires animal materials and can lose loft when wet), synthetic wadding maintains its insulating properties when damp and is easier to care for.
- Asymmetric Construction: The jacket is cut asymmetrically — the front panels falling unevenly, the asymmetric construction creating a silhouette that reads differently from the front and the side. In a long padded jacket, the asymmetry creates a hem that falls at different lengths on each side, the cold-dyed mud visible across the asymmetric surface.
- Oversized Hood: A hood cut generously — the oversized hood framing the face with volume, the cold-dyed nylon creating a hood that reads as warm and considered in mud. The oversized hood adds warmth and visual presence to the long padded jacket.
- Concealed Snap Closure: Snap buttons hidden beneath the nylon surface — the closure is invisible from the outside, maintaining the clean, unbroken silhouette of the cold-dyed nylon front. The concealed snaps allow the jacket to be opened and closed quickly without visible hardware.
- Drawstring Hem: A drawstring at the hem that allows the bottom of the jacket to be cinched or left open — cinched, the drawstring creates a defined hem and traps warmth; open, the long asymmetric hem falls freely.
- Made in Italy: Cold dyeing, asymmetric construction, and all finishing completed in Italy under LA HAINE INSIDE US's atelier standards.

The Moment You Put It On
The cold-dyed nylon is immediately warm and dimensional — the mud colour visible as natural variation across the nylon surface, lighter areas reading as sand, darker areas reading as deep brown. The oversized hood frames the face with volume; the concealed snap closure keeps the front clean and unbroken. The 150g wadding creates warmth without bulk — the jacket lighter than it looks, the asymmetric long hem falling unevenly below.
The drawstring at the hem allows the bottom to be cinched or left open — cinched, the jacket creates a defined hem and traps warmth; open, the long asymmetric hem falls freely, the cold-dyed mud visible across the full length of the jacket. The W5405 is a padded jacket that earns its mud — the cold-dyed colour variation making each piece unique.
The Art of Cold Dyeing on Nylon
Cold dyeing is a dyeing process performed at low temperature — typically below 60°C — after the garment is constructed. Unlike hot dyeing, which penetrates the fabric fibres uniformly, cold dyeing does not penetrate as deeply or as evenly, creating natural variation in the colour across the surface. On nylon, cold dyeing creates a colour with variation that is determined by the construction of the jacket — the wadding channels, seams, and folds absorbing the dye differently, creating lighter and darker areas that reflect the structure of the piece. In mud, the cold-dyed variation creates a warm, earthy brown-grey where the lighter areas read as sand and the darker areas read as deep brown. The result is a padded jacket that reads as considered and organic rather than uniform and synthetic.
How to Wear It
- Hood Up, Drawstring Cinched: Wear with hood up and drawstring cinched — the oversized hood framing the face, the drawstring creating a defined hem, the cold-dyed mud visible across the full length of the jacket.
- Hood Down, Hem Open: Wear with hood down and hem open — the long asymmetric hem falling freely, the cold-dyed mud variation visible across the full surface.
- Earth-Tone Palette: Wear with camel, sand, olive, or brown pieces — the cold-dyed mud jacket sits naturally within an earth-tone palette.
- Over Knitwear: Wear over a heavy knit or turtleneck — the oversized padded jacket as an outer layer over knitwear, the 150g wadding adding warmth above the knit.
Care Instructions
- Machine wash cold, delicate cycle — the cold-dyed colour is set; the synthetic wadding maintains its loft after washing
- Tumble dry low — the synthetic wadding requires tumble drying to restore loft after washing; add tennis balls to the drum to redistribute the wadding
- Do not dry clean — dry cleaning solvents can damage the cold-dyed colour and the synthetic wadding
- Do not iron — heat will damage the nylon shell
- Do not bleach
- Store hung or flat — avoid compressing the wadding for extended periods
