FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
The gilet is designed for warmth and is typically water-resistant rather than fully waterproof. It can handle light rain but is not suitable for prolonged exposure to heavy precipitation.
What is the primary benefit of the goose down padding?
The goose down padding provides excellent insulation, trapping body heat to keep you warm while remaining lightweight and compressible.
How do I pack the gilet for travel?
Ensure the gilet is completely dry, then fold it neatly and place it into the provided dust bag. This helps to compress it for easy storage in a bag or suitcase.
Can I wear this gilet in very cold temperatures?
This gilet is best suited for moderate to cool temperatures or as a mid-layer in colder conditions. For extreme cold, consider layering it with additional insulating garments.
What does 'Core Identity' refer to in the product name?
'Core Identity' likely refers to a collection or line within the EA7 brand that focuses on essential, foundational pieces for a modern wardrobe.
How many pockets does the gilet have?
The gilet features two practical side pockets.
Troubleshooting
Gilet loses loft after washing
Ensure the gilet is thoroughly dried in a tumble dryer on low heat with tennis balls to help break up clumps of down and restore its puffiness.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow it to dry. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) to the teeth to help it glide smoothly.
Visible down feathers escaping
This can occasionally happen with down products. Gently pull any escaping feathers back through the fabric from the inside if possible. If excessive, contact customer support.
