Full details

Crafted from recycled polyester and featuring a water-repellent shell, this vest offers excellent utility for transitional weather; however, its mid-weight insulation is better suited for layering rather than extreme sub-zero conditions.

FAQs
Is the GANT Active Cloud Vest waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it will shed light rain or drizzle thanks to its DWR treatment, but it is not fully waterproof.
Can I remove the hood?
Yes, the hood is detachable, allowing you to customize the vest for different weather conditions or style preferences.
What is the vest made of?
The vest is constructed from recycled polyester, reflecting a commitment to sustainable and circular manufacturing processes.
How many pockets does it have?
It features two exterior side zip pockets and three convenient interior pockets.
Is this vest suitable for layering?
Absolutely. It is designed with a regular fit and mid-weight padding, making it an ideal middle layer under a winter coat.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric
The DWR finish has likely worn off; apply a DWR-restoring spray or treatment to the outer shell.
Hood keeps detaching
Check all connection points (snaps or zippers) for debris or lint, and ensure they are fully pressed or zipped into place.
Drawstring hem is loose
Tighten the toggle adjuster while wearing the vest to ensure the hem is snug against your hips.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your vest, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Always refer to the internal care label. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent when machine washing, and avoid bleach.
- DWR Maintenance: If water stops beading on the surface, consider using a specialized DWR re-proofer to maintain its water-repellent properties.
- Storage: Hang the vest on a wide, padded hanger to maintain its shape and the integrity of the insulation.
- Hood Attachment: Ensure the snaps or zips for the hood are fully engaged before wearing to prevent accidental detachment.
