FAQs

What is the main benefit of a gilet?

A gilet, or bodywarmer, provides core insulation to keep your torso warm while allowing complete freedom of movement for your arms, making it ideal for active pursuits or layering.

How water-resistant is the DWR finish?

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish provides resistance against light rain and splashes. It is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, for which a dedicated waterproof jacket would be more suitable.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

This gilet is best used as a mid-layer in very cold weather, worn over insulating base and mid-layers, or as an outer layer in milder conditions. It provides core warmth but lacks sleeves for full insulation.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the chest measurements provided in the product description (e.g., XXL corresponds to a 49-inch chest). Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the chart for the best fit.

What material is the gilet made from?

The shell is made of Nylon, and the filling is Microfibre. It features a DWR Finish, and is Insulating and Water Resistant due to its Isotherm technology.

How should I clean and maintain the gilet?

Machine wash cool (30°C) with similar colours and close zippers before washing. Tumble dry on low or hang to dry. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean.

Does this gilet have a hood?

No, this specific model features a high-neck collar but does not have a hood.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels too tight or too loose.

Refer to the size guide provided (XXS: 34 in. chest to 4XL: 56 in. chest) and compare with your own measurements. Consider if layering items underneath will affect the fit.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The DWR finish is designed for water resistance, not full waterproofing. For heavy or prolonged rain, consider a waterproof outer shell. The DWR treatment may also need refreshing over time.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. If still stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or silicone spray applied to the teeth can help.

Gilet has lost some of its loft/warmth.

Ensure the gilet is clean and dry. Follow the care instructions for washing and drying. Tumble drying on a low heat with clean tennis balls can help restore loft to the microfibre filling.
