FAQs
What age group is this gilet intended for?
This gilet is designed for kids, with specific sizes available (e.g., 3-4 years, 9-10 years).
Is this gilet waterproof or water-resistant?
The gilet is water-resistant, meaning it can repel light rain or splashes but is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.
What type of insulation does it use?
It uses cosy synthetic wadding insulation, which provides warmth even when damp.
Can this gilet be worn in very cold weather?
While it provides warmth and is suitable for layering, it is best suited for moderate temperatures or as a mid-layer in colder conditions, rather than as a primary outer layer in extreme cold.
How should I clean the gilet?
Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Close zips before washing.
Does it have a hood?
Yes, it features a grown-on hood with part-elastication for a snugger fit.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, it has two zipped hand pockets to keep items secure.
Troubleshooting
Gilet feels too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the child's measurements. Check size guides provided by the retailer.
Water resistance seems reduced
Washing the gilet according to care instructions can help maintain its water-repellent properties. For significant reduction, consider a re-waterproofer suitable for synthetic fabrics.
Zip is difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zip. Try gently wiggling the zip pull. If issues persist, check for debris and clean the zip teeth. Close all zips before washing to prevent damage.
