Setup, Compatibility & Care
This gilet is designed to fit true to size as a standard UK 16. For optimal performance, pair it with moisture-wicking base layers to manage perspiration. To care for your gilet, follow the garment's wash label closely. Typically, synthetic quilted items should be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR (water-repellent) coating. Always ensure the zipper is fully closed during the wash cycle to prevent snagging, and air dry whenever possible to maintain the loft of the synthetic insulation.
