FAQs

Is the Trespass Leona Gilet waterproof?

The gilet is made from high-quality pongee fabric which provides resistance against outdoor elements like light wind and moisture. It is not fully waterproof, so for heavy rain, we recommend wearing a dedicated waterproof outer shell.

Can I wear this gilet in very cold winter weather?

The Leona Gilet provides excellent core warmth and is suitable for chilly weather. For very cold winter conditions, it is best used as a warm layering piece under a heavier, insulated jacket, as it does not offer arm protection.

How do I clean my Leona Gilet?

We recommend machine washing on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water. Use a mild detergent. Air dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting to preserve the fabric and insulation.

Are the pockets big enough for a smartphone?

Yes, the two convenient pockets are designed to be practical and provide ample storage for essentials, including most standard smartphones, keys, or small personal items.

Is the hood removable?

The hood on the Leona Gilet is described as 'grown-on,' meaning it is an integrated part of the gilet's design and is not detachable.

What is 'pongee fabric'?

Pongee is a type of woven polyester fabric known for its durability, smooth texture, and resistance to water and wrinkles. It makes the gilet robust and protective against light outdoor elements.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels too bulky when layered underneath an outer jacket.

Ensure your outer jacket has enough room to accommodate the gilet's padded design. Consider lighter, less bulky base layers or a larger size in your outer jacket for optimal comfort.

Hood keeps falling down or doesn't provide enough protection.

Utilize the adjustable hood ties. Pull them to cinch the hood closer to your head for a more secure fit and better coverage against wind or cold.

The Leona Gilet is designed for straightforward use and easy integration into your wardrobe. To 'set up,' simply wear it over your chosen base or mid-layers. Adjust the hood ties for a snugger fit around your head if needed. This gilet is highly compatible with a range of other garments; it layers effectively over long-sleeved tops, sweaters, and fleeces, and can be comfortably worn under a waterproof jacket or heavier coat for multi-season versatility. For care, we recommend machine washing the gilet on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water using a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang to air dry to maintain the integrity of the insulation and fabric. Do not iron directly on the padded areas to prevent damage to the synthetic fibers. Storing it on a hanger in a well-ventilated area will help maintain its shape.
