FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Frankie Fleece Gilet?
The gilet is designed to provide warmth and comfort as a layering piece for cooler days, without adding excessive bulk.
What materials is the gilet made from?
It is made from a combination of soft microfleece (70% polyester/30% polyester micro fleece, 210 gsm) and durable poplin overlays (63% polyester/37% polyester micro poplin with PA coating, 84 gsm).
Is the gilet waterproof?
The description does not state that the gilet is waterproof. The poplin overlays offer some protection, but it is primarily designed for warmth and light protection, not heavy rain.
How many pockets does the gilet have?
It features one zipped chest pocket and two zipped lower pockets.
Can this gilet be worn in very cold weather?
It is best suited as a layering piece. For very cold weather, it should be worn under a more protective outer jacket.
How should I clean the gilet?
Machine wash according to the care label, typically on a gentle cycle. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Does the gilet have a hood?
No, the Frankie Fleece Gilet does not feature a hood. It has a stand-up collar with stretch binding.
Troubleshooting
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Gently rub a graphite pencil lead on the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Fleece material is pilling
Follow washing and drying instructions carefully. Avoid excessive friction during washing and tumble dry on low heat.
Gilet feels too tight or restrictive
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. If consistently too tight, consider if a larger size is needed for your intended use.
