FAQs
What season is this gilet most suitable for?
This gilet is designed for Autumn and Winter, perfect for layering in cooler weather conditions.
What materials is the gilet made from?
The gilet is entirely made from 100% Polyester for the outer fabric, wadding (insulation), and lining.
Is the hood removable?
The description refers to a 'duvet hood,' which typically implies it is integrated and not designed to be removable. There is no mention of a removable feature.
How should I care for my gilet?
Always refer to the care label inside your specific garment for the most accurate instructions. Generally, polyester items can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and air-dried flat or tumble-dried on low.
What kind of fit does this gilet have?
It features a 'Regular fit' and is described as 'True to size,' meaning it should align with your standard dress size for a comfortable fit.
Can I wear this gilet in heavy rain?
The gilet's material is 100% polyester, which offers some resistance to light moisture. However, it is not described as waterproof or water-resistant, so for heavy rain, we recommend wearing a dedicated waterproof outer layer.
What does 'chevron pattern' mean?
A chevron pattern is a distinctive V-shaped or inverted V-shaped design, often seen in textiles and other decorative arts.
Troubleshooting
Gilet feels too snug or too loose
This gilet is designed for a 'regular fit' and is 'true to size'. If it feels off, double-check that you ordered your usual dress size. Consider trying a size up for a looser layering fit or if you prefer to wear very thick sweaters underneath.
Gilet not providing expected warmth
This gilet is intended as a layering piece for cooler Autumn/Winter conditions. For very cold weather, ensure you are layering effectively with warm base layers and thick knits underneath. It may not be sufficient as a standalone outer layer in freezing temperatures.
Zip or poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten
Check if any fabric from the gilet's lining or surrounding material is caught in the zip mechanism or poppers. Ensure the zip is fully aligned before attempting to pull it. For poppers, apply firm, direct pressure. Avoid forcing them to prevent damage.
Quilting appears flattened or uneven after washing
After washing, gently reshape the gilet while it is still damp. Air drying flat or tumble drying on a very low heat with dryer balls can help restore the loft and evenness of the quilting. Avoid over-drying or high heat.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and maintain the quality of your Chevron Quilted Hooded Gilet, follow these general care guidelines. Always check the specific care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions, as these can vary.
- Material: The gilet is made from 100% Polyester (outer, wadding, and lining).
- Washing: Typically, polyester garments can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water. Avoid hot water to prevent potential shrinkage or damage to the quilting.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, air dry flat to maintain the shape and loft of the quilting. Avoid high heat as it can damage polyester fibers.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting, preferably with a cloth barrier between the iron and the gilet, to prevent melting or scorching the polyester.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Hanging is suitable to maintain its shape.
