How do I determine my size?
Refer to the brand's specific size chart for the most accurate measurements. The vest has a slim, figure-hugging fit.
Can I machine wash this vest?
Yes, it is recommended to machine wash on a delicate cycle with cold water. However, hand washing is preferred for longevity.
What colors are available?

Can this vest be worn on its own?

Troubleshooting
Vest appears stretched out after washing.
Ensure you are laying the vest flat to dry, avoiding hanging while wet, which can cause stretching. Check care label for specific drying instructions.
Ribbing looks uneven.
Gently reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. Unevenness can sometimes occur with knitwear due to tension variations.
Fabric feels scratchy.
Ensure the garment is thoroughly rinsed after washing. A fabric softener suitable for knitwear might help soften the fibers on subsequent washes, following care instructions.
