Full details
The Trespass Leona Gilet is a versatile and stylish layering piece designed for adult women who enjoy outdoor activities and require additional warmth without bulk. It provides effective insulation and comfort in chilly weather, blending fashion with functionality for casual outings or more active use. However, as a sleeveless gilet, it is best utilized as part of a layered system for full weather protection rather than a standalone outer layer in harsh conditions.

FAQs
Is the Trespass Leona Gilet waterproof?
No, the Trespass Leona Gilet is not waterproof. It is made from durable pongee fabric which offers some resistance to light moisture, but for full rain protection, we recommend wearing a waterproof outer layer over it.
How should I wash the Leona Gilet?
You should machine wash the gilet cold with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to best preserve its quality. Avoid ironing or dry cleaning.
Can I wear this gilet in very cold weather?
The Leona Gilet provides good insulation for chilly weather. For very cold conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer, combined with a thermal base layer and a warm, protective outer jacket to ensure adequate warmth.
What are the side vents for?
The side vents on the Leona Gilet are designed to enhance your mobility and comfort, especially during active movements like walking or bending. They also contribute to the gilet's stylish, longer length aesthetic.
Does this gilet have any internal pockets?
The product description mentions 'two convenient pockets' which typically refers to external hand pockets. There is no information to suggest the gilet includes internal pockets.
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood on the Leona Gilet is described as a 'grown-on hood,' meaning it is an integrated part of the gilet's design and is not removable.
Troubleshooting
Gilet feels bulky or restrictive.
Ensure you are selecting the correct size. While padded, the design is meant for layering. Try pairing it with thinner base layers if you feel restricted, or consider the side vents for increased mobility.
Not feeling warm enough in cold weather.
The Leona Gilet is an insulating layer. For colder temperatures, layer it over a thermal base layer and under a protective outer jacket (e.g., a waterproof shell). It's designed to add warmth, not as a primary extreme cold weather outer layer.
Hood doesn't stay in place or feels uncomfortable.
Utilize the adjustable features of the grown-on hood. Tighten the drawstrings for a more secure fit in windy conditions, or loosen them for a relaxed feel. Adjust until comfortable and secure.
Pockets feel small or insufficient for items.
The two pockets are designed for essentials like keys or a phone. For carrying larger items or more gear, consider using a backpack or a jacket with additional pocket space.

The Leona Gilet requires no specific setup beyond putting it on. Ensure the adjustable grown-on hood is tailored to your comfort and protection needs by tightening or loosening its drawstrings. This gilet is highly compatible with a wide range of clothing, fitting comfortably over long-sleeved tops, fleeces, or light sweaters. For outerwear, it layers well under waterproof jackets or heavier coats for comprehensive cold-weather protection. To maintain the gilet's warmth and appearance, care is straightforward: machine wash cold with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to preserve the integrity of the padding and fabric. Avoid ironing or dry cleaning. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions.
