Product Information
Full details
The Hoggs of Fife Stenton Fleece Gilet is designed for women who require a functional yet sophisticated layering piece for outdoor pursuits and country living. It offers exceptional insulation through a rich-pile hollow fibre polyester construction, keeping you warm without sacrificing breathability or wind protection. While it provides a refined, tailored fit with premium detailing, users should note that as a dedicated outdoor gilet, it is best utilized as part of a layering system rather than a standalone heavy-duty coat in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
The Stenton fleece is windproof and insulating, but it is not waterproof. It is designed to be worn under a waterproof shell in rainy conditions.
What is the best way to wash the faux nubuck trim?
The trim is designed to be machine washed at 40°C along with the rest of the garment, provided you use a standard, non-abrasive detergent.
Does the fleece shed over time?
The high-quality hollow fibre construction is designed to be durable and shed-resistant, provided care instructions are followed.
Can I wear this as a mid-layer?
Yes, its tailored fit makes it an excellent mid-layer for wearing under heavier waterproof jackets or wax coats.
Is the sizing true to size?
The gilet is designed with a tailored fit. If you prefer to wear heavy base layers underneath, you may want to consider this when selecting your size.
Troubleshooting
Fleece pile looks flattened after heavy use
Gently shake the garment or use a soft-bristled brush to lift the fibres back to their original loft.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and wipe the zipper teeth clean of any debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no special setup. To ensure longevity, keep the gilet away from sharp objects that might snag the pile.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash the gilet on a gentle cycle at 40°C.
- Use a mild detergent; avoid harsh bleaches or fabric softeners that may compromise the fleece pile.
- Allow the garment to air dry naturally to preserve the integrity of the polyester fibres and the faux nubuck trim.
- Avoid tumble drying or direct heat sources as this can shrink the fabric or damage the trim.
