Troubleshooting

The gilet doesn't seem as warm as expected.

Ensure proper layering. Consider wearing a base layer and a mid-layer for added warmth in colder conditions. Check the hem is adjusted for a snug fit.

Water is penetrating the fabric.

Check if the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish needs reapplication. Follow the care instructions and consider using a DWR treatment spray.
