Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Gilbert XP100 body armor, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps.
Setup and Fit
- Ensure the garment is worn as a base layer directly against the skin or over a very thin compression garment for optimal moisture management.
- Check that the shoulder padding aligns correctly with your acromioclavicular joints to maximize impact dispersion.
Care Instructions
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water.
- Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the technical properties of the recycled polyester.
- Always air dry in a well-ventilated area; do not tumble dry, as high heat will damage the integrity of the foam padding.
