FAQs

Is this gilet waterproof?

The Dhb BLOK Gilet is designed to be windproof and breathable, not waterproof.

Can I store this in a jersey pocket?

Yes, it is designed to be lightweight and highly packable, making it easy to store in a standard jersey pocket.

Does this gilet provide reflective visibility?

Yes, it includes reflective inserts to help improve your visibility to other road users in low-light conditions.

How does the two-way zipper work?

The two-way YKK zipper allows you to unzip the gilet from the bottom while keeping the top fastened, providing quick ventilation and easier access to items stored in the pockets of the jersey worn underneath.

What material is this made from?

The gilet is constructed from high-performance polyester, balancing wind resistance with durability.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull

Ensure the zipper track is clean and free of grit or dirt, and apply a light silicone lubricant if necessary.

Feeling overheated during a ride

Use the two-way zipper to open the bottom of the gilet or fully unzip it to allow immediate airflow through the mesh back panel.

Gilet feels too tight across the chest

The BLOK range features a slim performance fit; if you prefer extra space for layering, consider choosing one size larger than your standard jersey size.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent wind protection
  • Highly packable for easy storage
  • Breathable mesh panel prevents overheating
  • Reflective detailing for increased visibility
  • Secure two-way zipper allows for flexible venting

Cons

  • Offers minimal thermal insulation for extreme cold
  • Not intended for heavy rain or wet conditions
  • Slim fit may require sizing up for those preferring a looser layer

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best performance, pair this gilet with a moisture-wicking base layer and a short or long-sleeve jersey depending on the temperature. Because of its slim-fit design, ensure you select your correct size to maintain freedom of movement in the shoulders.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent.
  • Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical performance of the polyester material.
  • Hang dry in a shaded area to maintain the integrity of the windproof panels.
  • Avoid tumble drying and ironing, which may damage the reflective inserts or the zipper mechanism.
