FAQs
Is this vest suitable for heavy rain?
No, the DWR treatment is designed for light weather conditions and will not provide protection against sustained or heavy downpours.
How should I clean the vest?
Follow the specific care label attached to the garment, generally opting for a gentle machine cycle in cold water.
Does the fit allow for thick sweaters underneath?
Yes, the regular fit is designed to accommodate mid-weight layering, making it a great choice for wearing over sweaters or flannel shirts.
Is the material machine washable?
Yes, it is typically safe for machine washing, provided you follow the specific temperature and cycle instructions on the garment tag.
What is the purpose of the elasticated hem?

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no setup. To maintain the DWR performance, it is recommended to follow the care label instructions precisely.

When cleaning, choose a gentle cycle with cold water and air dry away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the quilted structure and the synthetic material.
