FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
No, the nylon shell is designed for warmth and wind resistance, not as a waterproof outer layer.
Can I wear this under a coat?
Yes, its lightweight profile makes it an excellent mid-layer to wear under a larger winter coat.
What is the best way to wash the garment?
Always follow the care label. Use mild, down-specific detergent and a delicate wash cycle, followed by tumble drying on low.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, the nylon construction allows for moisture vapor transmission while trapping warmth.
How should I store the gilet?
Store it hanging in a closet or folded loosely to ensure the down maintains its loft.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers poking through the fabric
This is normal for high-quality down; gently pull the feather back from the inside rather than pulling it through the fabric.
Gilet looks flat or loses loft
Tumble dry the garment on low heat for 15-20 minutes with a few clean tennis balls to redistribute the down clusters.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid compressing the gilet for extended periods to prevent damage to the down clusters. When cleaning is necessary, it is highly recommended to follow the manufacturer's care label instructions, typically involving professional cleaning or machine washing on a delicate cycle with a specific down detergent. Always tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls to help fluff the down and restore its original loft.
