This guide specifically covers the 'XS' size. Please refer to standard sizing charts for American Vintage apparel for precise measurements if available.

Can this gilet be worn in the rain?

The gilet is designed for warmth and style, not as rainwear. It is not waterproof.

What is the best way to wash this gilet?

Machine wash cold with like colors. Tumble dry low and cool iron if needed. Do not dry clean.

Does the gilet have an internal pocket?

The product description mentions zip pockets, typically located on the exterior.

Is this gilet suitable for formal occasions?

What does 'relaxed silhouette' mean for fit?

A relaxed silhouette means the garment is cut with extra room for comfort and ease of movement, not tight-fitting.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels too loose

Layer over thicker garments like sweaters or consider it a relaxed-fit item.

Zipper is stiff

Rub a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Pilling on fabric

This can occur with wool blends. Use a fabric shaver gently to remove pills. Follow care instructions to minimize this.

Gilet not warm enough

Layer a long-sleeve base layer or a mid-layer garment underneath.
