What color is this specific cardigan?

This variant of the Belstaff Kelbrook Zip Quilted Cardigan is available in a stylish navy blue color.

How should I care for my Kelbrook Zip Quilted Cardigan?

Hand washing is strongly recommended. Use lukewarm water and a mild, wool-specific detergent. Gently squeeze out excess water, reshape, and lay flat to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Is this cardigan suitable for cold weather?

Yes, thanks to its wool construction and quilted polyester filling, it provides excellent warmth, making it ideal for layering in cool to cold weather conditions.

Can I machine wash this cardigan on a delicate cycle?

While some wool garments can be machine washed on a delicate cycle, for optimal care and longevity of this specific cardigan, the manufacturer recommends hand washing. This helps preserve the wool fibers and the integrity of the quilted design.

Is this a slim-fit cardigan?

The product information for this specific variant (MPN: 104410WSNVYM) does not specify a 'slim fit.' Therefore, it is designed with a standard adult male fit, offering comfortable wear without being excessively tight.

Troubleshooting

Cardigan feels itchy or rough against the skin.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent for hand washing. A final rinse with a small amount of wool-safe fabric conditioner can also help soften the fibers. Consider wearing a long-sleeve base layer for additional comfort.

Small balls of fiber (pilling) are forming on the surface.

Pilling is a natural occurrence in wool and other natural fibers, often caused by friction. Gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or a specialized depilling comb. Reduce friction by avoiding wearing backpacks or rubbing against rough surfaces frequently.

Cardigan appears to have shrunk or lost its shape after washing.

This typically occurs due to washing in hot water or excessive agitation. Always hand wash in cool or lukewarm water. Gently reshape the cardigan while it's damp and lay it flat to dry to help it retain its original form. Avoid twisting or wringing.

The navy color seems to be fading.

To protect the color, always use a mild, color-safe detergent specifically designed for wool. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during drying, as UV rays can cause colors to fade over time. Ensure proper rinsing to prevent detergent residue.

Care Instructions:

  1. Hand Washing: To maintain the integrity of the wool and quilted components, *hand washing is strongly recommended*. Use lukewarm water and a mild, wool-specific detergent.
  2. Gentle Handling: Avoid twisting, wringing, or excessive agitation during washing to prevent damage or shrinking.
  3. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly with cool water until all detergent is removed.
  4. Drying: Gently squeeze out excess water without wringing. Lay the cardigan flat on a clean, dry towel to air dry. Reshape it gently if necessary. Avoid hanging to prevent stretching, and keep it away from direct sunlight or high heat, which can damage wool fibers.
