FAQs
What is the primary material of the Greyson Gilet?
The gilet is filled with fiber down for warmth and insulation.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is permanently attached to the gilet.
Can I wear this gilet in heavy rain?
While the gilet offers some protection, it is not fully waterproof. It is best paired with a waterproof outer layer in heavy rain.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the Barbour International size chart and consider the layering you plan to do underneath.
How should I store my gilet during the off-season?
Store the gilet in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it to maintain its insulation.
What kind of washing detergent should I use?
Use a mild detergent that is suitable for down or synthetic fill.
What should I do if the gilet gets wet?
Allow it to air dry completely, or tumble dry on low heat to restore the loft of the filling.
Troubleshooting
The gilet feels less warm than expected.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate layers underneath. The gilet is designed to be a layering piece, not a standalone source of extreme warmth. Consider adding a thicker sweater or a thermal base layer.
The gilet appears to have lost its shape or loft after washing.
Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls. This helps to redistribute the fiber down filling and restore its original shape and insulation properties.
Zippers are sticking or difficult to close.
Try lubricating the zipper with a dry lubricant or wax. Avoid pulling the zipper forcefully; ensure the fabric is not caught.
