Product Information

Full details

FAQs

What is the primary material of this vest?

The vest is primarily made of 100% Polyester for both the shell and filling, offering a lightweight feel.

Is this vest suitable for very cold weather?

This vest is lightweight and padded, making it best suited for mild weather conditions or as a layering piece under a heavier coat in colder temperatures. It is not designed as a primary insulated jacket for extreme cold.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or brand. For this specific vest, size S corresponds to a UK men's waist size of 36.

Can I wear this vest in the rain?

The vest is not waterproof. While it may offer some resistance to light moisture, it is not designed for protection against significant rain.

How should I wash the vest to maintain its shape?

Machine wash inside out in cold water on a gentle cycle with like colors. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.

What does the 'reversible' feature mean?

The vest can be worn on either side, offering two different looks or color combinations. This provides added versatility in styling.

Where is the Lacoste Crocodile branding located?

The embroidered Crocodile branding is located on the left chest of the vest.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to dislodge any obstructions. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Pilling or fuzziness on the fabric surface

Pilling can occur with normal wear, especially with polyester fabrics. Ensure you are washing inside out and using a gentle cycle. Avoid abrasive contact with rough surfaces. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can be used carefully.

Seam coming undone

If a small seam has come undone, it can often be repaired by hand sewing or taken to a tailor for professional repair.

Embroidery is snagged or damaged

Carefully trim any loose threads with small, sharp scissors. Avoid pulling at the snagged area. For significant damage, professional embroidery repair might be necessary.
