FAQs
What is the primary material of this vest?
The vest's shell and lining are made from 100% polyamide, and the filling is 100% polyester.
Is this vest suitable for very cold winter weather?
This vest provides lightweight thermal insulation and is windproof, making it excellent for layering. For very cold conditions, it is best worn as part of a layering system with warmer garments underneath or over it.
How many pockets does the vest have?
The vest features two external pockets and three internal pockets.
Can I machine wash this vest?
Yes, you can machine wash it cold on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low or line dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
What does 'ergonomic fit' mean for the armholes?
Ergonomic armholes mean they are designed to fit comfortably around the arms, allowing for a full range of motion without restriction or chafing.
What is the purpose of the two-way zipper?
The two-way zipper allows you to open the vest from either the top or the bottom, providing adjustable ventilation and comfort, especially when sitting or moving.
Does the vest have a hood?
No, this model features a high stand-up collar and does not include a hood.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the zipper track is clean and free of debris. Gently run a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Vest feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the vest is layered appropriately over insulating base layers. Check that the zipper is fully closed and the stand-up collar is utilized for maximum warmth.
Material appears creased after washing/drying.
Follow the care instructions precisely, especially regarding ironing (do not iron). Line drying may help minimize creases. If necessary, a very low-heat steam, held at a distance, can be used cautiously.
Elasticated armholes feel too tight.
While designed for an ergonomic fit, some initial tightness may occur. Wear the vest for short periods to allow the elastic to adapt slightly. Ensure the size purchased is correct.
