Full details

It offers an excellent balance of windproofing, breathability, and warmth, making it ideal for brisk walks or gardening; however, users should note that as a gilet, it provides core warmth but does not protect the arms from inclement weather.

FAQs
Is the gilet waterproof?
It is windproof and insulating, but not waterproof. It is designed to be worn as a mid-layer or outer layer in dry, cool conditions.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the garment to protect the integrity of the faux nubuck trim and the quality of the fleece fabric.
What is the material composition?
The gilet is crafted from durable, high-quality polyester fleece.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the two zipped pockets are designed to securely hold standard-sized smartphones and small personal essentials.
Does it run true to size?
The fit follows standard sizing conventions for women's outdoor wear; please refer to your usual size for a comfortable layering fit.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure the fabric is clear of the track and gently rub a pencil lead or zipper lubricant along the teeth to improve movement.
Fleece appearance is becoming matted
After washing, gently shake the garment and use a soft-bristled garment brush once dry to restore the loft of the fleece pile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Stenton Fleece Gilet is designed for simple, everyday wear. It pairs well with flannel shirts, long-sleeve base layers, or knitwear. To maintain the appearance and functionality of the fleece, it is machine washable at 40°C. To ensure the longest lifespan, avoid using harsh fabric softeners that can coat the fibers and reduce breathability. Hang the gilet to air dry naturally away from direct high-heat sources to keep the fleece pile soft and prevent shrinkage.
