Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a garment, the Tibb Gilet requires minimal setup but specific care to ensure long-term performance.
- Storage: Hang the gilet on a padded hanger when not in use to maintain the shape of the quilting and the distribution of the down feathers.
- Cleaning: Due to the delicate nature of the down fill and the nylon fabric, this piece should be professionally dry cleaned. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.
- Layering: The gilet is designed to be worn over light to medium-weight clothing. It is best stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the fabric over time.
- Maintenance: If the down appears compressed, gently pat the quilted areas to fluff the feathers and restore the loft.
