Full details

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is integrated into the design for consistent coverage and a seamless look.

What is the material composition?

The outer shell is constructed from durable cotton-based materials, filled with premium supersoft wadding for insulation.

Can I wear this in the rain?

The gilet provides protection against light wind and mist, but it is not waterproof and should be worn under a shell in heavy rain.

Does it fit true to size?

This model is a UK size 16 and is designed with a standard fit to allow for comfortable layering underneath.

How should I store the gilet?

It is best stored on a wide, padded hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and prevent the wadding from compressing in tight spaces.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Apply a small amount of beeswax or lead pencil graphite to the teeth of the metal zip to lubricate it.

Wadding appears uneven after washing

Once dry, gently shake and fluff the gilet by hand to redistribute the internal wadding evenly across the quilted panels.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and easy to layer
  • Supersoft wadding provides effective insulation
  • Stylish and versatile brown colorway
  • Practical pocket design for daily utility
  • Secure dual-zip and popper closure

Cons

  • Sleeveless design provides no arm protection from cold
  • Specific care required to maintain wadding loft
  • Brown color may not match all wardrobe palettes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your gilet in optimal condition, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can compress the wadding and reduce insulation efficiency. Air dry the garment on a flat surface or a sturdy hanger to maintain the shape of the hood and quilt pattern. It is compatible with a wide range of long-sleeved base layers, including cotton shirts, turtlenecks, and light fleeces. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this may damage the metal zip and outer synthetic materials.
