FAQs

What type of leather is used?

The gilet is crafted from premium British hides with a hand-washed, soft, waxy leather finish.

Is this gilet waterproof?

It is designed for all weather conditions and offers protection, but it is not fully waterproof. Prolonged heavy rain exposure should be avoided.

How should I clean the gilet?

Professional leather cleaning is recommended to maintain the quality and finish of the leather.

Can I wear layers underneath?

Yes, the gilet is designed to be layered over various clothing items. Its slim fit pairs well with thinner to medium-weight tops and sweaters.

What does 'diamond quilted' mean?

Diamond quilting refers to the stitching pattern that creates a series of small, interconnected diamonds across the fabric, providing both aesthetic appeal and insulation.

What is the benefit of the waxy finish?

The hand-washed waxy finish provides a soft, luxurious feel to the leather and can offer some resistance to moisture, enhancing its all-weather capabilities.

What occasions is this gilet suitable for?

It is versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, from casual country walks to smart-casual city wear, combining heritage and modern styles.

Troubleshooting

Leather feels stiff

Apply a small amount of leather conditioner with a soft cloth and allow it to absorb. Repeat if necessary, but avoid over-conditioning.

Zip is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zip. Gently pull the fabric away. Lubricate the zip teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zip lubricant.

Minor scuffs or marks appear

For light marks, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper scuffs, consult a professional leather repair specialist.

Gilet has lost its shape

Ensure proper storage. Hang on a padded hanger to maintain shoulder shape. If creases are present, consult professional care instructions; avoid ironing leather directly.
