Full details
The Only Reversible Padded Gilet is an ideal layering piece for women seeking versatile, functional warmth during transitional weather.

While its polyester construction ensures durability and easy maintenance, users should note that as a sleeveless garment, it relies on appropriate base layering to maintain comfort in colder temperatures.

FAQs
Is the gilet water resistant?
The polyester fabric offers some protection against light drizzle, but it is not intended for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
How do I reverse the gilet?
The gilet is designed to be flipped inside out by unzipping it completely and pulling the sleeves through the armholes.
What size should I choose?
This gilet fits as a standard outer layer. If you plan on wearing bulky sweaters underneath, you may consider if your normal size provides enough room for layering.
Can I tumble dry this gilet?
It is generally recommended to air dry this product to preserve the integrity of the padding and the synthetic material.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is a fixed part of the gilet's construction.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull
Ensure no fabric lining is caught in the teeth and gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth to lubricate them.
Garment looks wrinkled after storage
Hang the gilet on a sturdy hanger in a humid environment, such as a bathroom during a shower, or use a handheld steamer on a low, synthetic setting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your gilet lasts, always check the interior garment label for specific washing instructions. Since this is made of polyester, it is generally recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents, as these can degrade the synthetic fibers. To maintain the loft of the padding, shake the garment out after washing and hang to dry; avoid tumble drying on high heat as this may damage the outer fabric or the zipper components. When pairing, choose slim-fit base layers to prevent bunching around the waistline.
