FAQs

What is the primary material of this gilet?

The main body is constructed from lightweight but durable polyamide, complemented by Extol Stretch warm-backed knitted fabric in specific areas.

Is this gilet suitable for heavy rain?

The gilet features a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain or showers. For heavy or prolonged rainfall, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over the gilet.

How does the Warmloft insulation perform?

Warmloft insulation provides warmth that is comparable to down but with the advantage of compressing easily, making it ideal for packing without losing significant thermal properties.

Can I wear this gilet for high-intensity activities?

Yes, the Extol Stretch fabric enhances agility and freedom of movement, making it suitable for activities like hiking and fast-paced walks.

How should I wash the Andreson Hybrid gilet?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing.

What are the benefits of the stretch fabric?

The Extol Stretch fabric enhances agility and comfort by allowing for a greater range of motion, which is particularly beneficial during active pursuits.

How much does the gilet weigh?

The gilet is designed to be lightweight, making it comfortable to wear and easy to pack. Specific weight details are not provided but it is optimized for minimal bulk.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently pull the zipper while ensuring the fabric is taut. You can try rubbing a graphite pencil lead or a wax-based product along the zipper teeth to lubricate it.

Gilet feels less warm than expected

Ensure the insulation is properly lofted. If the gilet has been compressed for a long time, gently tumble dry on low heat with a few clean tennis balls to help restore loft. Check that you are wearing appropriate base layers underneath for optimal warmth.

Water-repellent finish is no longer effective

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. You can re-apply a waterproofing spray specifically designed for outdoor clothing after cleaning the gilet according to care instructions.

Seams appear loose

Inspect the seams carefully. If there is a minor loose thread, carefully trim it with scissors. If the seam is actively unraveling, contact customer support or a professional repair service.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions: Machine washable at 30°C with similar colours. Do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, or iron. Consider using a wash bag to protect the fabric and insulation. For best results, zip up all zippers and fasten all buckles before washing.
