FAQs
What materials is the gilet made from?
The outer fabric is a blend of 78% Cotton, 16% Polyester, and 6% Elastane. The quilted front and lining are 100% Polyester.
Is this gilet suitable for very cold weather?
This gilet is designed as a lightweight layering option for cooler days. It provides warmth but is not intended as a primary garment for extreme cold conditions. It can be layered under heavier jackets for added insulation.
How do I determine the correct size?
The gilet is available in standard men's sizes. Refer to general apparel sizing charts for men's gilets or jackets, considering that this item has a regular fit.
Can the gilet be worn in wet weather?
The gilet has a storm guard on the full zip to help protect against wind and light moisture. However, it is not a waterproof garment and is best suited for dry or mildly damp conditions.
What is the best way to care for the gilet?
The gilet is machine washable. It's recommended to wash it according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
Does the gilet have adjustable features?
The gilet features a ribbed collar and hem for a snug fit, but it does not have additional adjustable features like drawcords.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper. If resistance persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax can help lubricate the teeth.
Gilet feels too bulky when layering
This gilet is designed for lightweight layering. If bulk is an issue, consider wearing it as an outer layer over thinner garments or as a mid-layer under a less insulated jacket.
Pilling or wear on fleece lining
Fleece can sometimes pill with frequent washing. Ensure washing is done inside out on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid high heat drying, which can exacerbate pilling.
