Product Information
Full details
The Jack Pyke Countryman Fleece Gilet is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who require a reliable, mid-layer garment that balances warmth with freedom of movement. Crafted from durable 300gsm fleece, this gilet is ideal for layering during brisk walks, gardening, or country pursuits. While it provides excellent core insulation and features stylish faux leather detailing, it is important to note that the garment is not waterproof and should be treated primarily as a thermal layer in dry conditions.

FAQs
Is this gilet machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed at a cool temperature (30°C). Always turn the garment inside out to protect the faux leather trims.
Does the XXL size fit true to size?
The Jack Pyke range is generally sized to accommodate layering underneath. It is recommended to follow the standard sizing guide for a comfortable fit over thicker clothing.
Is the material windproof?
While the 300gsm fleece is dense and provides warmth, it is not specifically treated as a windproof membrane and may allow some airflow in very high winds.
Can I wear this under a waterproof jacket?
Absolutely. Its low-bulk, sleeveless design makes it an ideal mid-layer that fits easily under most waterproof outer shells.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the side zip pockets are designed to be deep and secure enough to hold most standard-sized smartphones comfortably.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks during use
Ensure no fleece fibers are caught in the teeth; run a small amount of candle wax or a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to lubricate the track.
Fleece beginning to pill or bobble after extended use
Use a specialized fabric shaver or a de-pilling comb to gently remove surface fuzz, maintaining a clean appearance.
Hem toggle slipping
Check the internal tension of the cord lock; if it loses grip, clear out any debris or lint caught in the mechanism.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Jack Pyke Countryman Fleece Gilet is designed for simple, immediate use. To maintain the integrity of the 300gsm fleece and the aesthetic appeal of the faux leather trims, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash at a low temperature setting (30 degrees Celsius) to prevent fiber degradation and protect the faux leather trim.
- Drying: Air dry the garment on a flat surface or a hanger. Avoid using high-heat tumble dryers, as this can shrink the fleece and damage the synthetic piping.
- Storage: Hang the gilet when not in use to maintain its shape.
- Compatibility: The sleeveless cut makes it highly compatible as a mid-layer under larger waterproof shells or over standard flannel shirts.
