FAQs

What is Sherpa fleece?

Sherpa fleece is a type of synthetic fabric designed to mimic the texture and warmth of sheep's wool. It's known for its softness, insulation properties, and plush feel.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the Trespass sizing chart, paying close attention to bust, waist, and hip measurements. For this specific gilet, consider how many layers you intend to wear underneath when selecting your size.

Can this gilet be worn in wet conditions?

While the fleece offers insulation, it is not waterproof. For heavy rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over the gilet.

Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?

The pockets are designed for secure storage of essentials. Check the specific dimensions if you plan to store a larger smartphone, as pocket size can vary.

How often should I wash the gilet?

Wash as needed. Frequent washing can increase wear on the fabric. Follow the care instructions on the garment's label to maintain its quality.

What is the purpose of the contrast stretch bindings?

The contrast stretch bindings serve both a functional and aesthetic purpose. They help to provide a snug, comfortable fit around the edges and add a visual design element.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold weather?

For very cold weather, this gilet serves best as a mid-layer, providing significant warmth. For extreme cold, it should be combined with a windproof and/or waterproof outer layer.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to pull the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a bit of wax to the zipper teeth.

Fleece appears matted or less soft after washing

Avoid high heat in the washing machine and especially in the dryer. Air dry the gilet flat or on a line. You can try gently brushing the fleece with a soft brush after it has dried to restore some loft.

Garment feels too snug or restrictive

Check the size guide carefully before purchase. For a looser fit, consider layering with lighter base garments. This gilet is designed for a snug fit to maximize warmth; if it consistently feels too tight, it may be the wrong size for your needs.
