FAQs
Is the TOG24 Welham Gilet suitable for heavy rain?
The gilet features a water-repellent coating designed to protect you from light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof and is not intended for use in heavy downpours or prolonged wet conditions.
What kind of insulation is used in this gilet?
This gilet uses a quilted insulated filling made from recycled materials, providing effective warmth while supporting environmental sustainability.
How can I adjust the fit of the gilet?
The gilet includes waist adjusters that allow you to cinch in the fit for a more flattering and customized silhouette. The hood also has adjusters for a snug fit around your head.
Can I wear this gilet for intense sports or hiking?
While designed for freedom of movement, the Welham Gilet is best suited for urban wear, casual outdoor strolls, and daily activities. For intense sports or strenuous hiking, more specialized performance outerwear might be more appropriate.
What is the benefit of the two-way zip?
The two-way zip allows you to open the gilet from both the top and the bottom. This is useful for increasing ventilation, accessing pockets of clothing underneath, or providing more freedom of movement when sitting or bending without fully unzipping the gilet.
What material is the gilet made from?
This specific TOG24 Welham Gilet variant is made from Cotton for its primary material, featuring a recycled insulated filling and an external water-repellent coating.
Troubleshooting
Gilet feels too bulky or restrictive when sitting.
Utilize the two-way zip feature. Unzip from the bottom upwards to create more room around your hips and allow for greater flexibility without needing to fully open the gilet.
Gilet doesn't seem warm enough in very cold conditions.
While insulated, the gilet is sleeveless. For colder temperatures, ensure you are layering effectively underneath with thermal long-sleeved tops or sweaters. This gilet is designed for core warmth and works best as part of a layered outfit.
Water repellency seems to be diminishing over time.
The water-repellent coating may wear off with extended use and washing. Follow the garment's care label strictly. If needed, consider using a wash-in or spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) product specifically designed for outdoor apparel, ensuring it's suitable for the gilet's material. > Info needed: Manufacturer's recommendation for DWR reapplication.
