Full details
The Joules Tilly Gilet is an ideal layering piece for active children aged 5-6 who need extra warmth during outdoor play or school transitions. Crafted from soft, durable fleece, it provides reliable core insulation while maintaining freedom of movement for the arms, though the cream-coloured fabric requires careful attention to avoid staining during messy outdoor activities.

FAQs
Is the Joules Tilly Gilet waterproof?
No, the gilet is made from fleece and is intended for warmth rather than water resistance. It should be worn under a waterproof layer in wet weather.
What age group is the 5-6 size suitable for?
This size is designed for the average build of a child aged 5 to 6 years old.
Can I tumble dry this garment?
It is recommended to air dry to maintain the integrity of the fleece fabric, as high heat from a tumble dryer can cause the fleece to pill or lose its shape.
Does the neon trim wash out?
The neon trims are designed to be colour-fast, but it is best to wash the gilet with similar colours to maintain the vibrancy of the contrast features.
Are the pockets deep enough for items?
The pockets are sized specifically for children, making them perfect for small items like stones, coins, or tissues.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks during use
Check the fabric track to ensure no fleece fibers are caught in the teeth; pull the fabric away and zip slowly to clear the obstruction.
Fleece appears matted after several washes
Use a specialized fabric comb or a soft-bristle brush to gently fluff the fleece fibers back to their original loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Joules Tilly Gilet in top condition, follow these simple care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colours. Using a mild detergent will help preserve the softness of the fleece.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to prevent the fabric from pilling. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, as these can stiffen the fleece material.
- Compatibility: This gilet is designed to pair perfectly with standard cotton long-sleeve tops or thin base-layer thermals. Due to its slim fit, it can also be comfortably worn underneath a waterproof parka or mac for added insulation during rainy days.
