FAQs

Is this vest waterproof?

No, the vest is water-repellent, meaning it can resist light moisture and spray but is not designed for heavy rain.

What is the insulation made of?

The vest is insulated with 100g of Primaloft® Black Eco, which is made from 100% recycled polyester.

How should I wash the vest?

Machine wash in cold water (30°C), do not bleach, tumble dry low, and iron on low temperature. Do not dry clean and do not use fabric softener. Remove promptly after washing and wash dark colors separately.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

The vest provides lightweight warmth and is ideal for transitional weather or as a mid-layer. For very cold conditions, it is best layered with additional insulating and waterproof outerwear.

What does 'Bluesign® product' mean?

A Bluesign® product certification indicates that the textile has been manufactured with the responsible use of resources, minimizing environmental impact and ensuring consumer safety.

Does this vest have a hood?

No, the Crew Insulator 2.0 Vest does not feature a hood.

How do I care for the YKK zippers?

Ensure the zipper area is kept clean. If it becomes stiff, a light application of wax can help, but avoid abrasive cleaners. Always ensure fabric is clear of the zipper path when zipping.

Troubleshooting

Vest feels too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the size chart if needed. The vest has a regular fit, so consider layering options if you prefer a looser feel.

Water repellency seems reduced

Follow the care instructions carefully, especially avoiding fabric softener. Consider re-applying a water-repellent treatment suitable for polyester if performance significantly degrades over time.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the slider. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
