Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your gilet, follow these care and maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash at a low temperature to preserve the water-repellent properties of the fabric. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not tumble dry on high heat as this may damage the synthetic fibers.
- Storage: Hang the gilet on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, especially since it features reinforced stress points.
- Customization: When applying embroidery, ensure the backing is removed carefully to avoid damaging the inner lining. Always test a small area before applying large heat transfers to ensure the polyester twill handles the heat press correctly.
