This EA7 vest is designed for immediate use without complex setup. Its `normal fit` makes it compatible with a range of body types, ideal for layering over shirts, sweaters, or under heavier coats. To get the most out of your vest and ensure its longevity, proper care is essential. The vest is `machine washable at 30°` (or `machine wash cold`) and can be `tumble dried low`. It's crucial to use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. To help redistribute the down filling and maintain its loft, it's often recommended to tumble dry with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. Avoid high heat during drying, as this can damage the down and polyamide fabric. Do not bleach or iron. Store the vest by hanging it or loosely folding it to prevent compression of the down.
