FAQs

Is the hood removable?

The hood itself is not removable, but the faux fur trim attached to the hood is fully removable, allowing for customizable styling.

What material is the gilet made from?

The SoulCal 2Zip Gilet is primarily made from Polyester, both for the outer shell and the padding, ensuring durability and warmth.

How should I wash the gilet?

The gilet is machine washable. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific washing temperature and cycle instructions. For the removable faux fur trim, hand washing or a delicate cycle is often recommended.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter weather?

The gilet provides excellent core warmth for cooler days and mild winter conditions. For very cold weather, it is recommended to wear it as a layering piece over warm sweaters and under a heavier winter coat, as it does not cover the arms.

Can this gilet be worn by men?

This gilet is designed and sized for women. Please refer to the size chart carefully if considering it for a different fit.

Does it have pockets?

Info needed: The product description does not specify if the gilet includes pockets. Please check product images or further specifications.

What sizes are available?

The SoulCal 2Zip Gilet is available in various sizes, including UK 8, 10, 12, 16, 18, and 20, as well as generic sizes like S, M, and XL. Please check specific product listings for available colours and sizes.

Troubleshooting

Faux fur trim looks matted or less fluffy after washing.

Gently brush the faux fur with a soft-bristle brush or comb once dry to restore its fluffiness. Ensure it was washed on a delicate cycle or hand-washed.

Gilet feels less warm than expected.

Ensure all zips are fully closed. Consider layering it over warmer base layers or pairing it with a scarf and hat for comprehensive warmth, especially if worn in very cold conditions.

Zipper is stiff or catches.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Try gently rubbing a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a zipper lubricant along the teeth to improve movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The SoulCal 2Zip Gilet requires no specific setup. Simply unpack it and it's ready to wear. If the faux fur trim is not attached, it can be easily zipped onto the hood.

Compatibility

This gilet is designed for layering and is highly compatible with a wide range of clothing items. Wear it over t-shirts, long-sleeved tops, sweaters, or hoodies. It pairs well with jeans, leggings, and casual trousers for various occasions. Its compact design makes it easy to wear under a heavier coat for extra warmth on very cold days.

Care

To ensure the longevity and quality of your SoulCal 2Zip Gilet, follow these care instructions:

  • Machine Washable: Always refer to the care label attached to the garment for specific temperature and cycle recommendations.
  • Faux Fur Trim: The removable faux fur trim should be treated with care. It's often best to remove it before washing the main gilet and wash it separately, perhaps by hand or on a delicate cycle, to maintain its softness and appearance.
  • Drying: Avoid high heat when drying, as this can damage the polyester material and faux fur. Air drying or tumble drying on a low setting is usually recommended.
  • Storage: Store the gilet in a clean, dry place. For optimal shape retention, hang it on a padded hanger.
