FAQs
Is the Monarch Gilet waterproof?

Can I put this gilet in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to hang-dry the garment to prevent fabric degradation and maintain the shape of the technical fibers.
What is the weight of the fabric?
The garment uses a 380gsm Moleskin Tech-Knit Supreme fabric, which is considered a mid-to-heavy weight material.
Are the pockets large enough for a map or phone?
Yes, the zippered pockets are designed to hold standard outdoor essentials securely.
How should I clean mud off the fabric?
Allow the mud to dry completely and then brush it off gently with a soft-bristled garment brush.
Troubleshooting

Clear any debris or fabric caught in the zipper teeth and apply a small amount of non-staining wax or graphite to the track.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Ridgeline Monarch Gilet, always consult the garment's internal care label. Due to the unique construction of the Moleskin Tech-Knit Supreme fabric, it is recommended to wash the garment in cold water with mild detergent and hang-dry it to prevent potential shrinkage or damage to the fabric fibers. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before washing to protect the teeth and prevent snagging. For layering, this gilet fits well over base-layer thermal shirts or thin fleece jackets. When storing, keep the gilet in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and fabric integrity.
