FAQs

Is this gilet waterproof?

It is showerproof, meaning it is designed to protect you from light rain but is not fully waterproof for heavy weather.

What does the 'Petite' fit entail?

The Roman Petite range is specifically tailored for women 5'3" and under, with proportions adjusted for length and fit.

Can I machine wash this item?

Yes, it is generally machine washable, but always refer to the specific garment care label for temperature and cycle settings.

Is the hood detachable?

The product description features a protective hood, but it is typically a fixed part of the gilet's design.

What should I wear underneath this gilet?

It is best styled with a long-sleeve top, a sweater, or a lightweight hoodie for a balanced, comfortable layered look.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure the fabric edges are clear of the zipper track and apply a tiny amount of candle wax to the teeth if necessary.

Water-repellency fading

Consider using a fabric-safe water-repellent spray designed for synthetic outdoor gear after several washes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your gilet lasts, always check the care label inside the garment before cleaning. Because this item is made of polyester, it should generally be washed on a gentle cycle to preserve the quilted texture. Avoid using harsh chemicals or high-heat tumble drying, as these can compromise the showerproof coating and the integrity of the material. For storage, it is best to hang the gilet on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, rather than folding it for long periods, which may create creases in the quilted fabric.
