FAQs

What is Airsoft fabric?

Airsoft is a fabric used by Moncler known for its durability and light weight, making it suitable for outerwear that offers protection without being heavy.

Can I wash the gilet in a washing machine?

Yes, the gilet can be machine washed at 30 degrees Celsius. It is recommended to use a liquid detergent and avoid fabric softeners or bleach. Ensure thorough drying, preferably in a tumble dryer on low heat with tennis balls.

What is the filling made of?

The gilet is filled with a blend of 90% down and 10% feather, which provides excellent warmth and insulation.

Does the gilet contain any animal products?

Yes, the gilet contains non-textile parts of animal origin, specifically a cow leather tag. The filling is also down and feather.

How should I dry the gilet after washing?

It is best to tumble dry the gilet on a low heat setting. Adding clean tennis balls or dryer balls can help to re-fluff the down and prevent clumping.

What is the purpose of the two-way zipped front?

The two-way zipper allows you to open the gilet from either the top or the bottom, providing adjustable ventilation and ease of wear, especially when sitting or layering.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold weather?

The Lechtal Down Gilet provides significant warmth for its weight and is excellent as a mid-layer. For extremely cold conditions, it is designed to be worn under a heavier, insulated, or windproof outer jacket.

Troubleshooting

Gilet appears flat or lost its puffiness after washing.

This is common with down-filled items. Place the gilet in a tumble dryer on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. The balls will help break up clumps and restore the loft of the down and feathers.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Small feathers or down are escaping through the fabric.

This is a natural characteristic of down-filled products and usually resolves itself as the fabric fills with tiny down clusters. If excessive leakage occurs, you can try gently pulling the escaped down back through the fabric from the inside. For persistent issues, consult a professional cleaner or the manufacturer.

The gilet does not feel warm enough on its own.

The gilet is designed primarily as a layering piece. For increased warmth, wear it over an insulating layer like a fleece or wool sweater, or under a windproof or waterproof outer shell.

Compatibility: This gilet is designed for layering with various types of clothing.

It is also compatible with outerwear such as parkas, shell jackets, and heavier coats.

Care Instructions: To maintain the gilet's quality and insulating properties:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius. Use a gentle cycle if available.
  2. Detergent: Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners or bleach.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore the loft of the down and feather filling. Remove promptly after drying.
  4. Cleaning: For the leather tag, use a specific leather cleaner if necessary, following product instructions. Avoid washing the leather parts.
  5. Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing the gilet for extended periods to preserve its shape and fill.
