FAQs
Is the Joules Crofton Gilet waterproof or showerproof?

What material is the gilet made of?
The gilet is made from 100% Nylon.
How do I wash the gilet?
The gilet is machine washable. Always refer to the care label on the garment for the most accurate washing instructions.
Does the gilet have a hood?
This specific model, the Crofton gilet, does not feature a hood. It is a sleeveless design.
What sizes are available for the Joules Crofton Gilet?
The Joules Crofton Gilet is available in various children's sizes, including the 9-10 years size. Please check the product listing for all available sizes.
Can the gilet be worn in very cold weather?
While the gilet provides warmth due to its padding, it may be best suited as a layering piece in very cold weather, worn over a warmer garment like a fleece or jumper.
Are there pockets on the gilet?
Yes, the gilet features two zipped side pockets for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stuck
Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. Use a pencil or a bit of lip balm on the teeth to help it slide more smoothly. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Gilet lost its water-repellent ability
Check care label for specific instructions. Sometimes a re-waterproofing treatment, available at outdoor gear shops, can restore the showerproof finish after washing. Ensure no fabric softener was used, as this can affect the coating.
Padding feels lumpy after washing
Ensure the gilet is thoroughly dried, preferably by tumble drying on a low heat setting as per the care instructions. Gently fluff the gilet after drying to redistribute the wadding.
