FAQs

What is the primary material of the Heritage Gilet?

The Joules Heritage Gilet is primarily crafted from luxurious polar fleece, made of 100% recycled polyester.

How do I adjust the fit of the gilet?

The gilet features an internal waist adjuster that allows you to cinch or loosen the fit for a more sculpted or relaxed silhouette.

Can I wear this gilet in wet weather?

While the gilet provides warmth, it is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry to mildly damp conditions. For heavy rain, a waterproof outer layer would be recommended.

What type of clothing is best to layer underneath?

The gilet has a classic fit, making it suitable for layering over t-shirts, long-sleeved tops, and lightweight jumpers or sweaters.

How should I wash the Heritage Gilet?

The gilet is machine washable. It is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours and to air dry to maintain the fleece's quality.

Does the gilet have secure pockets?

Yes, the gilet features practical popper pockets which offer secure storage for small items.

What are the faux leather trims for?

The faux leather trims are a design detail that adds a sophisticated contrast to the fleece, enhancing the gilet's overall aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth to ease movement.

Fleece appears matted or less soft after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and a gentle wash cycle. Avoid high heat during drying; opt for air drying or a low tumble dry setting. You can use a soft-bristled brush to gently restore the fleece's loft.

Embroidery at the neck is snagged

Carefully snip any stray threads with small, sharp scissors. Avoid pulling on the snagged area to prevent further damage to the embroidery.

Popper buttons are loose

For minor looseness, a small repair kit might help re-secure them. If significantly damaged, professional repair might be needed, or consider replacing them with similar-quality poppers.

Cons

Fleece material may require specific care to maintain its texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Joules Heritage Gilet requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

This gilet is designed for adult females and offers a classic fit that is compatible with a range of base layers and mid-layers such as t-shirts, long-sleeved tops, and light jumpers. It is available in various UK women's dress sizes.

Care Instructions:

Machine Washable: The gilet can be machine washed. Follow the care label instructions for optimal results, typically on a gentle cycle with similar colours.
Material: Made from 100% recycled polyester. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
Drying: It is recommended to air dry the gilet to preserve the fleece texture and shape. Tumble drying may be possible on a low setting, but check the care label.
Ironing: Generally, fleece does not require ironing. If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting, preferably on the reverse side, avoiding direct contact with faux leather trims.
