FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
It is made of nylon which offers some resistance to light moisture, but it is not classified as waterproof.
Can I wear this over a hoodie?
Yes, the gilet's design allows it to be comfortably layered over hoodies or sweaters.
Is the fit true to size?
The gilet follows standard sizing conventions; however, if you plan to layer it over very thick garments, you may prefer a slightly roomier fit.
How should I store it for the summer?
Store it in a cool, dry place on a hanger to keep the shape, ideally in a breathable garment bag.
Does the logo fade after washing?
The logo is durable, but for best results, turn the gilet inside out before placing it in the washing machine.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks when opening
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and consider running a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to lubricate them.
Padding looks uneven after washing
Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help fluff and redistribute the internal insulation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This gilet is designed for immediate use right out of the packaging. Because of its medium sizing and unisex fit, it is compatible with most standard casual wardrobes. To maintain the integrity of the padding and the finish of the nylon material, follow these care steps:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting to prevent material degradation.
- Storage: Hang the garment in a cool, dry closet to keep the padding evenly distributed.
- Avoid: Do not bleach or iron the logo area directly.
