FAQs

What seasons is this gilet most suitable for?

This gilet is designed for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, providing warmth without the bulk of a heavy winter coat. It's perfect for unpredictable weather.

Is the gilet waterproof?

While the hood offers some protection from light rain or drizzles, the gilet is made from polyester and is not explicitly stated to be fully waterproof. It's best for light moisture rather than heavy downpours.

How should I wash this gilet to maintain its quality?

Being 100% polyester, it generally requires machine washing on a gentle cycle with cold water. It's crucial to always check the garment's care label for specific instructions to protect the wadding and fabric.

Does this gilet have internal pockets?

The gilet features practical zipped pockets on the outside for secure storage of your everyday essentials.

Is the fit true to size?

Yes, the product description indicates that it is a regular fit and designed to be true to size, allowing for comfortable layering.

What kind of outfits does this gilet pair well with?

It pairs beautifully with relaxed denim and knitwear. You can complete the look with either boots for a more structured style or trainers for a casual, trendy aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels too bulky when layered

Ensure your base layers are not excessively thick. Opt for thinner knits or long-sleeved tops to maintain comfort and avoid bulk.

Drawstring for the hood gets tangled or pulls out

Before washing, secure the drawstring by tying a simple knot at the ends or temporarily removing it if the design allows. If it pulls out, use a safety pin to re-thread it through the hood channel.

Zippers feel stiff or snag

Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant, graphite from a pencil, or even a bar of soap sparingly along the zipper teeth to improve movement. Gently work the zipper up and down.

Padding appears flattened after washing

Gently fluff the gilet while it is still damp to redistribute the wadding. If care instructions allow, tumble dry on a low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore loft.

Gilet develops static cling

Use an anti-static spray or a dryer sheet when washing/drying. Ensuring the gilet is completely dry before wearing can also help reduce static.

Care Instructions

To ensure your Chevron Print Longline Hooded Gilet maintains its quality and warmth, follow these general care guidelines:

  • Material: The gilet is made from 100% Polyester (outer, wadding, and lining).
  • Washing: Always check the specific care label inside your garment for precise washing instructions. Generally, polyester gilets can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water to protect the padding and fabric.
  • Drying: Avoid high heat, as it can damage polyester fibers and wadding. Air dry flat or hang dry in a well-ventilated area. If using a tumble dryer, opt for a low heat setting with dryer balls to help fluff the padding.
  • Storage: Store the gilet on a hanger to maintain its shape, especially the longline silhouette.
