FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
It is windproof and insulating, but it is not classified as waterproof. It is best used as an insulating layer under a raincoat in wet conditions.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
While machine washing at 40°C is fine, it is best to air dry to prevent the heat from damaging the faux nubuck trim and the synthetic fleece pile.
Does it have an internal pocket?
The Stenton Fleece Gilet features two external zipped pockets for security, but it does not include an internal chest pocket.
Is the sizing true to size?
The gilet features a tailored fit. If you prefer to wear it over multiple layers, some users prefer to size up.
What is the material composition?
The gilet is made from high-quality polyester hollow fibre fleece.
Troubleshooting
Fleece pile appearing flattened or matted
Gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristled garment brush after washing and drying to restore the original texture.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Run a standard graphite pencil tip along the teeth of the zipper to lubricate it naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment does not require any specialized setup. To ensure the longest life for your fleece, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at a maximum of 40°C. Do not use heavy bleaches.
- Drying: It is recommended to air dry the garment to maintain the pile of the fleece; avoid high-heat tumble drying which can shrink synthetic fibers.
- Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place to maintain the shape of the tailored cut.
- Compatibility: The gilet pairs well with long-sleeve base layers or flannel shirts. Avoid layering over extremely bulky knitwear if you prefer the intended slim-fit aesthetic.
