Product Information
Full details
The Hoggs of Fife Stenton Fleece Gilet is designed for women who require a functional, insulating outer layer for country living and outdoor pursuits. Featuring a rich pile fabric and faux nubuck detailing, it offers a sophisticated look without sacrificing performance, though the polyester material lacks the natural moisture-wicking properties of wool alternatives. This gilet provides excellent windproofing and breathability, making it a reliable choice for transitional weather or as a mid-layer under a heavier coat.

FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
The Stenton is windproof and insulating, but it is not waterproof. It is best used as a mid-layer in wet weather.
How should I wash this fleece?
It is machine washable at 40°C. Ensure all zips are closed before placing it in the wash.
Does it have an internal pocket?
No, this model features two external zipped pockets for security.
Is the material stretchy?
The polyester pile is structured and designed for a comfortable fit, but it does not have the high-stretch qualities of elasticated athletic gear.
Can I tumble dry this gilet?
It is recommended to hang dry to protect the faux nubuck trim and ensure the longevity of the fleece pile.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or not sliding smoothly
Check the zipper track for debris or lint and gently clean with a soft brush; applying a small amount of graphite or candle wax can lubricate the teeth.
Fleece pile looks flattened after washing
Once dry, use a soft-bristled garment brush to gently fluff the pile and restore its original texture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This gilet is designed for simple, everyday wear. There is no complex setup required; simply layer it over your preferred base or mid-layer. To keep the fleece in optimal condition, it is machine washable at 40°C. Avoid using strong chemical bleaches or aggressive fabric softeners, as these can affect the faux nubuck trim and the integrity of the fleece pile. Always zip the pockets before washing to prevent the metal pulls from snagging other garments or damaging the drum of your machine. Hang to dry naturally to preserve the loft of the fleece.
