Product Information
Full details
The PETIT BATEAU Plain Padded Gilet is an essential layering piece for young girls looking for comfort and warmth during the winter months. Featuring a practical zip fastening and durable polyester construction, it provides a functional addition to any cold-weather wardrobe while incorporating at least 50% recycled materials. While it offers excellent core warmth, the sleeveless design means it is best paired with long-sleeve sweaters or tops rather than being used as a standalone outerwear piece in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
The gilet is water-resistant but not fully waterproof; it is designed to keep the wearer warm rather than dry in heavy rain.
What is the material composition?
It is made of high-quality polyester, with at least 50% of the material being recycled.
Does it have a hood?
No, this specific model is designed without a hood for a cleaner silhouette.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is best to air dry the gilet to maintain the integrity of the padding and fabric.
How does the sizing run?
The size follows standard UK children's sizing; please refer to the tag for specific fit guidelines.
Troubleshooting
Zipper gets stuck
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and run a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to lubricate the mechanism.
Padding appears uneven after washing
Gently shake the garment and reshape it while it is damp to redistribute the padding evenly across the quilted sections.
Pros and Cons
Pros

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no setup upon arrival. To ensure longevity, follow the care label instructions carefully. It is recommended to machine wash on a delicate cycle using mild detergent. Avoid bleach or heavy tumble drying, as this can degrade the synthetic padding. Hang drying in a well-ventilated area is the safest way to maintain the shape of the quilting. The gilet is fully compatible with standard long-sleeve school uniforms, hoodies, and sweaters.
