FAQs

Is this gilet machine washable?

Yes, but it is highly recommended to use a delicate wash cycle with cool water to maintain the shape of the knit fabric.

What does the 12-gauge knit mean?

The gauge refers to the number of needles per inch on the knitting machine; a 12-gauge knit indicates a fine, tight stitch that is both smooth and durable.

Does it have an inside pocket?

No, this model features two external welted pockets for style and convenience.

Is the material breathable?

Yes, the garment is made from cotton, which is a natural, breathable fiber suitable for comfortable daily wear.

What are the sustainability certifications for this product?

This gilet is produced under Amfori, BSCI, OCS 100, Sedex, and WRAP standards, ensuring ethical labor practices and environmental responsibility.

Can I wear this over a thick sweater?

Because of its regular fit, it may feel snug over heavy knitwear; it is best styled over shirts, polos, or thin base layers.

Troubleshooting

Fabric snagging

Use a specialized knitwear comb or carefully pull the snagged loop to the inside of the garment using a crochet hook.

Zipper sticking

Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil tip to the teeth of the brass zipper to improve lubrication.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your gilet remains in peak condition, always check the internal care label before cleaning. Due to the cotton knit composition, it is recommended to wash in cool water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach, which can compromise the integrity of the natural fibers. To prevent stretching, lay the garment flat to dry rather than hanging it while wet. The gilet is designed to pair well with standard male casual and semi-formal attire, fitting true to standard size expectations.
