Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks when opening

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Diesel Gilet remains in top condition, proper maintenance is essential. As it is made of softshell material, it is best to machine wash on a delicate cycle with like colors. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the structure of the quilting. Always air dry the gilet on a hanger to maintain the shape of the banded collar and the straight hem. For compatibility, this gilet matches best with slim-fit knitwear or long-sleeve cotton tees. Because of the regular fit, you can generally select your standard size, though if you plan to wear very heavy, bulky sweaters underneath, consider if you prefer a tighter or more relaxed fit before sizing.
