Product Information
Full details
The Hoggs of Fife Stenton Fleece Gilet is designed for women who require a functional yet stylish mid-layer for country living and outdoor pursuits. Featuring a rich, hollow-fibre fleece construction, it offers excellent thermal insulation, windproofing, and breathability, making it an ideal choice for layering on cooler days. While the tailored fit provides a flattering silhouette, users should note that as a dedicated mid-layer, its thin profile is best suited for layering under a waterproof jacket in heavy rain rather than serving as standalone weather protection.

FAQs
Is the Stenton Gilet waterproof?
No, while the gilet is windproof and insulating, it is not waterproof and should be worn under a waterproof layer in heavy rain.
Can I tumble dry this gilet?
It is recommended to hang dry this garment to preserve the quality of the faux nubuck trim and fleece texture.
How should I choose the right size?
The gilet has a tailored fit. If you plan on wearing thick sweaters underneath, you may prefer to size up from your usual preference.
What is the primary material used?
The gilet is crafted from high-quality polyester hollow fibre fleece.
Does it have an internal pocket?
The product features two secure external zippered pockets for your essentials.
Troubleshooting
Visible pilling on the fleece surface
Pilling is common with synthetic fibers; use a fabric shaver gently to restore the pile.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clean the teeth of the zip with a soft brush and ensure no fabric is trapped; a small amount of clear wax can help lubricate the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a layering piece, the Stenton Gilet is designed to sit comfortably over base layers or thin shirts and fits easily beneath a bulkier coat or waterproof shell when the weather turns. No special setup is required; simply pull on and zip up. Regarding care, the gilet is designed for longevity: it is machine washable at 40°C. To ensure the longevity of the faux nubuck trim and the integrity of the fleece pile, it is recommended to wash with similar colors and avoid harsh bleaching agents. Hang dry to maintain the garment's shape.
