FAQs

What is Airtrap technology?

Airtrap technology refers to the fabric's ability to trap air within its structure, creating an insulating layer that retains body heat and provides warmth without adding bulk.

Is this gilet waterproof?

No, this gilet is water repellent, meaning it can resist light moisture and rain for a short period. It is not designed to withstand prolonged or heavy rainfall.

What materials is the gilet made from?

The gilet is crafted from 100% Polyester, and it is made from eco-friendly, recycled materials.

How should I wash the gilet?

You should machine wash the gilet on a gentle cycle at 40°C and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleaching and dry cleaning.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

The gilet provides good insulation and is ideal for cooler conditions or as a layering piece. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it with additional thermal clothing and a waterproof outer shell.

Does the gilet have pockets?

Yes, the gilet includes two convenient side pockets.

What are the main benefits of the fabric technologies used?

The gilet features Airtrap and Thermo-Guard for insulation, Quick Dry properties for rapid drying, and a Water Repellent finish for protection against light moisture.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels too tight or too loose

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the size guide if available. This model is size XL.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Lubricating the teeth with a dry soap bar or graphite pencil can sometimes help.

Reduced water repellency

Water repellency can diminish over time with wear and washing. Consider using a fabric-specific re-waterproofing spray to restore its performance. Follow the product's care instructions carefully.
