FAQs

Is this gilet warm enough for winter?

This is a lightweight puffer gilet designed for transitional weather. While it provides a good layer of warmth, it may not be sufficient on its own for very cold winter temperatures. It is best used for mild conditions or as a layering piece under a heavier coat.

What does 'water-resistant' mean for this gilet?

Water-resistant means the fabric can repel water to a certain extent, protecting you from light rain or splashes. It does not mean waterproof, so it will not provide complete protection in heavy or prolonged downpours.

How should I wash the gilet?

It is recommended to machine wash the gilet cold with like colors, using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. For best results and to maintain the loft of the filling, tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

Can I wear this gilet over a thick sweater?

Yes, the gilet is designed to be layered. However, wearing it over very thick sweaters might restrict movement or feel too snug. It layers best over t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, or thinner knitwear.

What material is the gilet made of?

The gilet is made from 100% nylon, which contributes to its lightweight and durable properties.

Does this gilet come in other colors or sizes?

This specific product is the black gilet in size S. Other sizes and potentially colors may be available under different product listings.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a wax-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Puffiness has reduced after washing.

Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to redistribute and restore the loft of the filling.

Stains on the nylon material.

Spot clean small stains with a damp cloth and mild soap. For larger stains, follow the machine washing instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing, which can damage the fabric.
