FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the reversible design?
The reversible design allows you to choose between a super-soft fleece exterior for maximum warmth and comfort, or a hard-wearing, dry-touch nylon exterior for a different look and protection against light wind or moisture.
Is this vest suitable for very cold winter weather?
It's an excellent layering piece for cold weather, providing core warmth. However, as a vest, it doesn't insulate the arms. For extreme cold, it's best used as a mid-layer under an insulated jacket.
How do I determine which side to wear facing outwards?
You can choose based on your needs: the fleece side for maximum softness and insulation, or the nylon side for a smoother finish and some wind/water resistance. It also offers two distinct aesthetic options.
Can I machine wash and dry this vest?
Yes, you can machine wash it cold with like colors on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid high heat and bleach.
What kind of fit does this vest have?
The vest features a stand collar and a zip closure, designed for a neat silhouette that is easy to wear and layer. It aims to provide warmth without excessive bulk.
Are the pockets insulated?
The vest includes handwarmer pockets for everyday convenience and light warmth. They are not heavily insulated but provide a comfortable place to rest your hands.
What material is the vest made from?
The vest is made from 100% polyester, ensuring durability and ease of care.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper track.
Fleece feels matted after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and cold water. Avoid high heat drying; opt for low heat or air drying. You can gently brush the fleece with a soft brush after drying to restore its loft.
Pockets feel less warm
The handwarmer pockets are designed for light warmth and convenience. For significant cold, consider wearing gloves or using the vest as part of a larger layering system.
