FAQs

Is the Leona Gilet suitable for very cold winter weather?

The Leona Gilet provides excellent core warmth but is best suited for transitional seasons or as a mid-layer in colder conditions. For very cold winter weather, it should be worn as an insulating layer under a warm, waterproof outer jacket, as it does not cover the arms.

Is this gilet waterproof?

The gilet is made with Pongee Fabric, which offers good resistance against light rain and outdoor elements. However, it is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy downpours. For complete waterproof protection, we recommend wearing a dedicated waterproof shell over it.

How do I choose the correct size?

The gilet is true to size (UK Women's Dress Size). We recommend consulting the Trespass size guide if available, or choosing your usual dress size. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider sizing up for comfort. Info needed: specific size guide reference if available

Can I machine wash the gilet?

Yes, the gilet can be machine washed. Please refer to the care instructions for specific temperature guidelines (usually cool wash) to maintain the fabric and padding quality.

What activities is this gilet best for?

The Leona Gilet is ideal for a range of outdoor activities where core warmth is needed without restricting arm movement, such as walking, hiking, cycling, gardening, or general casual wear in cool to mild conditions.

Are the pockets zipped?

The product description mentions '2 convenient pockets for ample storage.' It does not specify if they are zipped. Info needed: confirm pocket closure type.

What is the material composition?

The gilet is made from Pongee Fabric (Polyester) for the outer shell and features a Taffeta Lining (also Polyester), with Polyester padding for insulation.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels less warm than expected.

Ensure you are layering appropriately for the temperature. Gilets provide core warmth and are often best combined with a long-sleeved base layer or fleece underneath for optimal insulation.

Hood feels too loose or doesn't stay up.

Utilize the hood ties to tighten and secure the hood around your face for a snugger fit and better protection against wind.

Fabric seems to have lost some water resistance.

After repeated washes, the water-resistant properties of pongee fabric can diminish. Ensure you are washing according to care instructions. For enhanced water repellency, consider using a fabric-specific DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after washing, if suitable for polyester.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile Layering: Ideal for adding warmth without bulk.
  • Durable Material: Pongee fabric offers resistance to outdoor elements.
  • Even Insulation: Padded design with stitched baffles prevents cold spots.
  • Weather Protection: Adjustable hood and storm flap provide defense against light weather.
  • Comfortable Design: Taffeta lining and longer length with side vents enhance wearability.
  • Practical Storage: Two convenient pockets for essentials.

Cons

  • Limited Arm Warmth: As a gilet, it does not provide insulation for arms.
  • Not Fully Waterproof: Designed for resistance, not heavy downpours.
  • Mild Weather Focus: May not be sufficient as a primary outer layer in very cold conditions.
  • Bulk for Packing: Padded design might take up more space than a thinner shell.

The Trespass Leona Gilet requires minimal setup; simply put it on and adjust the hood and hood ties as needed for your desired fit and warmth. Compatibility: This gilet is designed as an excellent layering piece. It can be worn over a base layer or a fleece for added warmth, or under a waterproof shell jacket for comprehensive protection in colder, wetter conditions. Its sleeveless design makes it compatible with various arm movements, suitable for activities like hiking, gardening, or casual wear. Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of your Leona Gilet, follow these general guidelines: - Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature (e.g., 30°C or 86°F) with similar colors. Use a mild detergent. - Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or, preferably, air dry flat to preserve the padding's loft and shape. Avoid direct heat. - Bleaching: Do not bleach. - Ironing: Do not iron. - Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. - Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
