FAQs

Is the Jack Pyke Sherpa Fleece Gilet waterproof?

No, this gilet is made from fleece and is not waterproof. It is best used for warmth in dry conditions or as a mid-layer under a waterproof shell.

What age group is this size suitable for?

The size 3-4 is designed for children typically aged between 3 and 4 years old.

Can I tumble dry this gilet?

It is not recommended to tumble dry this gilet. High heat can damage the fleece fibers; air drying is the best method to maintain the garment's quality.

Are the pockets deep enough for small items?

Yes, the two lower zip-secured pockets are sized appropriately for common children's accessories like gloves or small toys.

What does 300 gsm mean?

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter.' A rating of 300 gsm indicates a thick, high-density fabric that provides significant insulation and warmth.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Check the zipper track for trapped fleece fibers or debris. Gently remove any obstructions and ensure the zipper is aligned correctly before pulling.

Fleece appears matted after washing

After the garment has air-dried, gently shake it to fluff the fibers. You can also use a soft-bristled clothes brush to carefully restore the loft of the fleece.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-pile fleece is extremely soft and warm
  • Sleeveless cut allows for unrestricted arm movement
  • Secure pockets prevent loss of items
  • Durable 300 gsm construction
  • Adjustable hem ensures a tailored fit

Cons

  • Not water-resistant or waterproof
  • Sherpa material may attract burrs in long grass
  • Requires careful washing to maintain fleece pile

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the fleece, machine wash the gilet on a cool, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can flatten the high-pile Sherpa fibers and reduce their insulating properties. Always air dry the garment naturally; do not tumble dry, as the high heat can damage the integrity of the fleece and potentially shrink the fabric. The gilet is highly compatible as a layering piece under larger waterproof jackets for added warmth in harsher conditions.
