Castore Hybrid Gilet - Green

This gilet is best suited for cool conditions, typically between 5°C and 15°C, and offers protection against light rain and wind. It is not designed for freezing temperatures or heavy downpours.

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron or dry clean.

While it provides warmth, it's primarily designed for cool conditions. For winter, it would be best used as a mid-layer under a more robust, insulated winter jacket.

ProTek is a technology integrated into the fabric that provides enhanced water resistance, helping to keep you dry during light precipitation.

The gilet includes an internal chest pocket for secure storage of valuables and two zip side pockets for convenient access to essentials like keys or a phone.

The gilet is crafted from 100% polyamide, offering durability and water resistance.

No, this specific gilet model does not feature a hood. It has a sleeveless, vest-like design.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture. In strenuous activity, some internal moisture may build up; consider a more breathable layer or opening the gilet briefly.

The ProTek water-resistant finish may diminish over time. Consider reapplying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment suitable for synthetic fabrics. Ensure the garment is clean before reapplication.

Gently pull the zipper. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Gently smooth the fabric with your hands. Minor shifting during washing or wear can occur; the insulation should redistribute with wear. Avoid aggressive stretching or pulling.
