FAQs
Is the Regatta Life Fairbanks Gilet machine washable?
Please check the care label on your specific garment; generally, faux suede items require gentle hand washing or professional cleaning to maintain their texture.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
No, this gilet is showerproof, meaning it handles light rain or drizzle. It is not designed to be a waterproof raincoat for heavy storms.
Does the gilet run true to size?
The Fairbanks Gilet follows standard sizing; however, since it is a layering piece, you may want to size up if you plan on wearing very thick sweaters underneath.
What materials is it made from?
The exterior is faux suede and the lining is faux shearling, both constructed from durable polyester.
Does it have pockets?
Yes, the design typically includes functional pockets that add to both the utility and the aesthetic of the piece.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems to be fading
Apply a spray-on water-repellent treatment specifically designed for synthetic suede or polyester fabrics.
Shearling lining is matting
Gently brush the faux shearling with a soft-bristled brush to restore its loft and fluffiness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment does not require any technical setup; simply layer it over your preferred top. To maintain the faux suede finish and shearling lining, always consult the internal care label. Generally, it is best to spot-clean the exterior with a damp cloth if it becomes soiled. Avoid tumble drying to protect the integrity of the synthetic materials. Store the gilet on a sturdy hanger to ensure it maintains its shape, and avoid keeping it in direct sunlight for long periods, which can fade the brown colouration.
