FAQs

What material is the vest made of?

The vest is made from 100% Cotton.

What is the fit of this vest?

This vest is designed with a regular fit.

How should I clean the vest?

It is recommended to machine wash cold with like colors, use a mild detergent, avoid bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Iron on a low setting if needed.

What does 'acid wash finish' mean?

The acid wash finish is a dyeing process that gives the fabric a faded, mottled, and often unique pattern, resulting in a stylish, worn-in look.

Does this vest have adjustable features?

The vest features a zip closure for easy fastening but does not have other specific adjustable features like drawstrings.

What is the closure type?

The vest features a zip closure.

Is this vest suitable for cold weather?

This vest is typically designed as a layering piece for mild weather or for style, rather than for significant cold protection. It works best over other garments.

Troubleshooting

Vest feels too tight or too loose.

This vest features a regular fit. For a different fit, consider other sizes or styles. Ensure it is layered over appropriate thickness garments for optimal comfort.

Acid wash pattern looks uneven.

The acid wash finish is intentional and can vary slightly between garments, contributing to its unique character. This variation is part of the design aesthetic.

Zipper is sticking.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) to the teeth can help smooth operation.
