FAQs
Is the insulation real down?
No, it uses a high-quality, synthetic feather-free fill that is designed to provide warmth equivalent to down while remaining eco-friendly.
Can I wash this in a washing machine?
Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle, but always check the internal care label for specific temperature recommendations.
Is the gilet waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it handles light rain well, but it is not fully waterproof and will soak through in heavy or persistent rain.
What is the sizing like?
The fit is designed to be ergonomic and snug for heat retention; if you intend to wear thick layers underneath, you might consider sizing up.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the gilet features two side pockets with zip closures to ensure items like keys or phones do not fall out.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the fabric
The water-repellent finish may have worn off; apply a DWR wash-in or spray treatment to restore its performance.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clear any lint or debris from the teeth and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant to ensure smooth operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle to maintain the insulation loft.
- Use a mild detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners that may affect the water-repellent finish.
- Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls to redistribute the synthetic fill.
- Periodically re-treat the outer fabric with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray if you notice water no longer beads on the surface.
