FAQs

What is the primary material of this gilet?

The outer layer and padding are made of 50% Nylon and 50% Recycled Nylon, while the lining is 100% Nylon.

Can this gilet be worn in cold weather?

This gilet is designed for mild weather and layering. Its sleeveless design does not provide significant warmth for cold conditions on its own.

How should I wash the gilet?

Wash on a very gentle cycle at a maximum temperature of 30°C. Wash separately, inside out, with the zipper closed. Do not bleach, iron, or tumble dry.

What does 'mock neck' mean for this gilet?

A mock neck refers to a collar that stands up but is not as tall or as tightly fitted as a turtleneck. It offers a stylish look and slight protection.

Is the fit true to size?

The gilet is described as having a 'regular fit', which is a standard, comfortable fit that is neither too tight nor too loose.

Can I machine dry this gilet?

No, tumble drying is not allowed. The gilet should be dried on a line.

What is the benefit of the recycled nylon content?

Using recycled nylon contributes to sustainability by repurposing materials that might otherwise end up as waste.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.

Gilet feels less breathable after washing.

Ensure you are following the gentle cycle and low-temperature wash instructions. Avoid fabric softeners, which can clog the fibers and reduce breathability. Ensure it is dried on a line and not tumble dried.

Visible stitching issues.

If minor loose threads appear, carefully snip them with sharp scissors to avoid damaging the garment. For larger issues, consider professional repair.
