FAQs
What material is the Gertrude Vest made of?

Is the hood on the vest removable?
Yes, the hood is removable and also adjustable with silicone drawcords.
How do I determine the correct size?

Can this vest be worn in the rain?

What is the best way to clean the vest?
Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low or hang dry.
Does the vest have pockets?
Yes, it features two patch pockets on the front.
What kind of closure does the vest have?

Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to move.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead to the teeth or use a silicone-based lubricant.
Hood adjustment cords are tangled.
Carefully untangle the silicone drawcords. If they are very knotted, a fine needle or toothpick may help separate them.
Vest loses its puffiness after washing.
Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. This helps to break up clumps of filling and restore loft.
Logo appears faded or damaged.
Avoid direct ironing on the logo. If the logo is peeling, gentle hand washing and air drying is recommended.
