FAQs

Is this vest waterproof?

No, it is made of polyester which provides basic protection, but it is not a waterproof garment.

Can I wear this over a bulky jacket?

The regular fit is designed to be worn under jackets or over sweaters, but wearing it over a bulky jacket may restrict your movement.

How should I choose my size?

The gilet follows a standard regular fit. We recommend choosing your usual shirt size for the best balance of comfort and layering capability.

Is the fabric machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable; however, please follow the care label instructions and use a gentle cycle.

Does it have side pockets?

The product features a functional chest pocket for quick access to small items.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or catches

Ensure no inner fabric lining is caught in the zipper teeth. If persistent, apply a small amount of graphite or candle wax to the zipper track.

Minor wrinkling after storage

Hang the gilet in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes or use a low-heat garment steamer to release wrinkles from the polyester.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your ARKET Quilted Gilet remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid high-heat tumble drying to protect the quilted structure.
  • Compatibility: The regular fit allows you to pair this easily with standard sized shirts, hoodies, and sweaters. If you intend to wear it under a slim-fit coat, ensure you have sized correctly to avoid bunching.
  • Storage: Hang the gilet on a sturdy hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and the integrity of the quilted padding.
