FAQs
Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter weather?
The gilet provides good warmth due to its padding and quilting, but for very cold winter weather, it is best used as a mid-layer or combined with a warmer, heavier coat.
What does 'showerproof' mean for this gilet?
Showerproof means the fabric is treated to resist light rain and splashes. It will keep your child dry in a brief, light shower but is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
How should I wash the gilet?
The gilet is machine washable. Always check the care label on the garment for specific instructions, but generally, wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
Can I tumble dry the gilet?
It is best to air dry the gilet to preserve the padding and fabric quality. Tumble drying may affect the gilet's shape and warmth.
What is the purpose of the hand-me-down label?
The hand-me-down label inside the gilet is a designated space to write the child's name and the date, making it easier to pass on to another child when they outgrow it.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the gilet features two zipped side pockets, which provide secure storage for small items.
What is the main material of the gilet?
The gilet is made from 100% Nylon.
Troubleshooting
Gilet is not as warm as expected.
Ensure the gilet is fully zipped and consider layering it over warmer clothing for colder conditions.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The gilet is showerproof, not waterproof. For heavy rain, a waterproof jacket should be used. Re-evaluate if the exposure to water was prolonged or heavy.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Use the chin guard to keep fabric away from the track. If persistent, contact customer support.
Gilet appears smaller than expected.
Refer to the Joules size guide for accurate measurements before purchasing. Different seasons or styles may have slight variations.
