Product Information
Full details
The Jack Pyke Sherpa Fleece Gilet is designed for young outdoor enthusiasts who need reliable insulation without the bulk of a full jacket. Featuring deep pile fleece and stylish faux leather detailing, it offers exceptional warmth and freedom of movement for activities like hiking, camping, or playground play; however, as a sleeveless garment, it is best utilized as a layering piece during colder weather rather than a standalone outer shell in extreme wind or rain.

FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
No, this garment is made of fleece and does not provide waterproof protection. It is designed for warmth and insulation.
Can this be worn by both boys and girls?
Yes, the Jack Pyke Sherpa Fleece Gilet features a neutral design suitable for all children.
How do I determine the right size for my child?
Use the manufacturer's size chart to match your child's measurements; the adjustable drawstring allows for some flexibility in the waist.
Will the faux leather piping crack over time?
To preserve the faux leather, avoid high-heat drying and keep it away from direct heat sources like radiators.
Is the fleece heavy to wear?
No, the Sherpa fleece is designed to be lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear without weighing a child down.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking
Check for loose threads or fabric caught in the teeth; ensure the zipper is aligned correctly before pulling.
Fleece appears matted
Gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristled garment brush to help loft the fibers back up after washing.
Drawstring feels loose
Re-thread the toggle and ensure the knot at the end of the cord is secure to prevent it from slipping back through the hem.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your fleece, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners that can mat the deep pile fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the faux leather piping and cause the synthetic fleece to lose its loft.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Using a hanger will help the gilet maintain its shape better than folding it tightly for extended periods.
- Compatibility: This gilet is designed to fit over standard base layers and sweaters. If layering under a larger coat, ensure the outer jacket has enough room to accommodate the bulk of the fleece.
