Product Information
Full details
The Hoggs of Fife Stenton Fleece Gilet is designed for adult women who require a functional yet stylish layering piece for country pursuits and outdoor activities. Featuring a high-quality hollow fibre fleece with a rich, soft pile and faux nubuck trim, this gilet provides reliable insulation and windproofing while maintaining a flattering, feminine silhouette. While it is highly versatile for various outdoor conditions, users should note that the polyester material performs best as a mid-layer rather than an outer shell in heavy, sustained rainfall.

FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
No, it is windproof and insulating but is not designed to be waterproof.
Can I tumble dry the Stenton gilet?
We recommend air drying to preserve the life of the faux nubuck trim and the quality of the fleece pile.
Does it fit true to size?
The gilet features a tailored fit. If you plan to wear it over multiple thick layers, you may want to consider your layering needs.
What material is the trim made of?
The trim is made from a durable, textured faux nubuck synthetic material.
Is the gilet machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed at 40 degrees Celsius.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the zipped pockets are designed to securely hold standard-sized smartphones and small personal essentials.
Troubleshooting
Fleece pile appearing matted or flattened
Gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristle garment brush after washing to restore the loft of the hollow fibres.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth; you can apply a tiny amount of candle wax to the zip teeth to improve sliding action.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This gilet is designed for simple, immediate use. To maintain the integrity of the hollow fibre fleece and the faux nubuck trim, please follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct high-heat sources to prevent fiber matting.
- Storage: Hang the garment on a contoured hanger when not in use to maintain its shape.
- Compatibility: The slim, tailored cut makes it highly compatible with most standard-fit jackets and heavy coats. Avoid wearing over extremely bulky knitwear to maintain the flattering fit.
