FAQs
What age group is this gilet suitable for?
The Joules Crofton Gilet is designed for children, with specific sizes available for various age groups from infants to older kids.
Is the gilet waterproof?
The gilet is described as 'showerproof,' meaning it can withstand light rain or drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.
What is the outer material of the gilet?
The outer material is 100% Nylon.
Can I put this gilet in the washing machine?
Yes, the gilet is machine washable. It is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors and at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C).
How should I dry the gilet?
It is best to air dry the gilet. Avoid using a tumble dryer, as this can affect the padding and fabric integrity. If necessary, a very low heat tumble dry with tennis balls can help restore loft.
Does the gilet have a hood?
No, the Joules Crofton Gilet does not feature a hood.
What are the benefits of the hand-me-down label?
The hand-me-down label inside the gilet is a thoughtful feature that allows you to write a new owner's name on it, encouraging the garment to be passed on to siblings or friends when it's outgrown.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Gilet has lost some loft or puffiness after washing
Ensure the gilet is completely dry. You can gently tumble dry it on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help redistribute the filling and restore loft. Always check the care label first.
Minor stains on the fabric
For small spots, try dabbing with a damp cloth and mild soap. If stains persist, follow the machine washing instructions.
