FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
No, the Casster Quilted Gilet is designed for insulation and is not waterproof. It is best used as a dry-weather outer layer or a mid-layer under a raincoat.
Can this be worn in deep winter?
While it provides good warmth, it is not a heavy-duty winter coat. It is most effective as a layering piece during autumn or spring.
How should I clean the gilet?
Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle. Avoid bleach or heavy chemical detergents.
What age group is the size 7-8 for?
The size 7-8 is designed for children within the typical UK sizing range for ages 7 to 8 years old.
Does it have a zipper or buttons?
The gilet features a full-length front zipper for quick and easy layering.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is integrated and folds into the collar when not in use.
Troubleshooting
Hood is difficult to fold away
Ensure the hood fabric is folded evenly and tucked firmly into the collar compartment before zipping the closure.
Gilet feels less warm after washing
The padding may have clumped; gently shake the gilet after drying to redistribute the synthetic insulation evenly throughout the quilted panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the gilet in optimal condition, machine wash it on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the insulation properties of the synthetic filling. Always dry the garment flat or tumble dry on a low, delicate setting if the care label permits, ensuring it is fully dry before storing to prevent odors. Because the waist is elasticated, ensure the fit is snug but not tight to avoid discomfort. This gilet is highly compatible with hoodies and thick sweaters, serving as an effective middle layer in a three-layer system.
