It refers to the innovative fabric construction where the nylon compartments for the down feathers are created directly on the loom during weaving. This method enhances feather containment and eliminates the need for traditional stitching in these areas, improving insulation and durability.

Yes, the down used in this gilet is RDS (Responsible Down Standard) certified, meaning it comes from supply chains that respect animal welfare.

The anti-drop treatment is durable but can be diminished by harsh washing or chemical treatments. Follow the care label instructions carefully, avoiding strong detergents and high heat.

The 'anti-drop' treatment offers resistance to light rain and water splashes. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over the gilet.

The 'ciré' finish is a technique applied to the fabric to give it a smooth, shiny, and slightly waxy appearance, enhancing its aesthetic appeal and water-repellency.

Garment dyeing means the product is dyed after it has been fully constructed. This process results in a unique, deep, and uniform color, and the fabric is pre-shrunk during dyeing.

This gilet provides good insulation and wind resistance, making it suitable for cool to moderately cold weather, especially when layered. For extreme cold, it may be best used as a mid-layer beneath a heavier coat.

Ensure the garment is washed according to the specific instructions for garment-dyed items, using a delicate cycle, cold water, and washing separately. Avoid prolonged soaking and remove promptly.

Tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore the loft of the down filling. Ensure the garment is completely dry before storing.
