The Craghoppers Altis II Logo Gilet is designed for adult males seeking a versatile, sleeveless layering piece for changeable outdoor conditions. Its key benefit is providing core warmth and weather resistance without restricting arm movement. A potential caveat is that it's a gilet, meaning it offers no sleeve protection.

H2OShield is a fabric technology that provides a durable water repellent (DWR) finish, designed to resist water penetration and keep you dry in light rain or wet conditions.
While the gilet is insulating, it is best suited for mild to cool weather as a layering piece. For very cold conditions, it would need to be worn over substantial thermal layers, or a jacket would be more appropriate.
Wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a non-biological detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR finish. Reapply a DWR treatment after washing to restore performance.
The fabric contains elastane, allowing it to stretch and recover. This provides a more comfortable, flexible fit that doesn't restrict movement during activity.
No, the gilet features a durable water repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can resist light rain and moisture but is not fully waterproof. It is designed for protection against showers rather than prolonged heavy rain.
A sleeveless design allows for maximum freedom of arm movement, ideal for activities where arm mobility is crucial, while still providing core warmth.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
This is normal after repeated washing. Reapply a DWR treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel. Follow the product instructions carefully.
Ensure you are layering appropriately. This gilet is designed as a mid-layer or for mild conditions. For colder weather, add a warmer base layer or consider a fully insulated jacket.
Some pilling can occur with microfleece over time. Avoid abrasive contact and wash inside out on a gentle cycle to minimize this. If significant, consider a fabric shaver.
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure you have selected the correct size before wearing. The sizing guide provided (M: 40 in, L: 43 in, XL: 46 in, 3XL: 52 in waist circumference) can help confirm your fit.
Compatibility: The gilet is designed to be layered over other clothing items such as t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, or light fleeces. It pairs well with outdoor trousers and walking boots for a complete ensemble.
