FAQs
Is the Jack Pyke Countryman Gilet waterproof?
No, it is made of 300gsm fleece, which provides warmth but is not designed to repel rain or water.
Can I wear this as a mid-layer?
Yes, its sleeveless design makes it an excellent mid-layer to wear under a larger waterproof or windproof coat.
How do I care for the faux leather trim?
Wipe the trims with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or ironing the faux leather areas directly.
Is the size L consistent with standard women's sizing?
Yes, this model follows standard adult women's apparel sizing for a comfortable, functional fit.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The side pockets are designed for standard personal items and provide secure storage with zip closures for most modern smartphones.
Troubleshooting
Zip is sticking or hard to pull
Ensure no fleece fibers are caught in the teeth and gently clean the track with a soft cloth.
Fleece looks matted after washing
Use a specialized fabric brush or a gentle plastic comb to carefully fluff the fibers back to their original texture.
Toggle at hem is loose
Check that the elastic cord is properly seated within the toggle mechanism; if the tension is lost, manually re-thread the cord through the adjuster.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your gilet lasts for many seasons, proper maintenance is essential.
Setup and Fit:
This gilet is designed to fit true to size for a feminine silhouette. When trying it on, ensure the full zip moves smoothly and the toggle at the hem allows you to tighten the fit without restricting your natural movement. If you plan to layer it over bulky sweaters, consider your layering thickness when selecting your size.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid high temperatures which can damage the faux leather trim.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Avoid placing the gilet directly on radiators or high-heat dryers to prevent the fleece from becoming matted or losing its shape.
- Storage: Hang the garment on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the structure of the collar and shoulders.
