FAQs
Is the Gant Quilted Vest waterproof?
It is water-resistant thanks to a DWR treatment, meaning it will shed light rain, but it is not fully waterproof and should not be used in heavy rain.
Can I wear this in the winter?
It is excellent for layering in cool weather, but as a vest, it does not cover the arms and should be paired with appropriate long-sleeved layers for cold winter temperatures.
What does 'regular fit' mean?
A regular fit means the vest is designed to sit comfortably on the body with enough room to wear over a sweater or shirt without feeling restrictive.
How do I clean the vest?
Machine wash on a gentle, cold cycle. Check the inner label for specific brand instructions and avoid harsh chemicals.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The patch pockets are designed for standard daily utility and can securely hold most modern smartphones.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off; consider using a technical garment wash-in re-proofer to restore water repellency.
Zipper sticking
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and consider using a dry graphite lubricant if the zip remains stiff.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no assembly. To maintain the integrity of the DWR treatment and the quilted fabric, always consult the garment's internal care label before laundering. Typically, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle with like colors. Avoid using harsh chemical bleaches or aggressive fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-repellent coating. Hang drying is preferred to preserve the shape and loft of the quilting, while avoiding direct high-heat sources like tumble dryers.
