Full details
This Belstaff Kilmington Quarter Zip Jumper is designed for the modern adult male seeking a blend of sophisticated style and practical warmth. Its key benefit lies in the mixed-media fabrication, combining soft extra-fine merino wool with textured nylon quilting for both comfort and a distinctive look. A potential caveat is the specific care required for wool garments to maintain their quality and longevity. The jumper features a quarter-zip closure, contrast shoulder panels with a military feel, and the iconic Belstaff phoenix patch, making it a versatile piece for layering.

FAQs
What type of wool is used in this jumper?
The jumper is made from extra-fine merino wool, known for its softness, warmth, and breathability.
Is the wool ethically sourced?
Yes, the wool used is non-mulesed, indicating it was sourced with consideration for animal welfare.
How should I store the jumper when not in use?
Store the jumper folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging it for extended periods to prevent stretching. Consider using moth repellents for long-term storage.
Can I machine wash this jumper?
It is strongly recommended to hand wash the jumper in cool water with a wool detergent. Machine washing may damage the fibers and alter the garment's shape.
What is the purpose of the nylon quilting?

Does the jumper run true to size?

Troubleshooting
Wool pilling
Light pilling is natural with merino wool. Gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Avoid excessive friction during wear.
Garment losing shape
Ensure the jumper is always laid flat to dry after washing. Avoid hanging it while wet. Reshape gently while damp if needed.
Zipper is stiff
Gently rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth. If the issue persists, consult a tailor for repair.
Nylon quilting appears creased
Use a low-heat iron with a pressing cloth over the quilted areas. Avoid direct high heat.
