FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this gilet?

The EA7 Premium Shield gilet is designed for lightweight warmth and style, suitable for sports and leisure activities in mild to cool weather conditions. It functions well as a layering piece.

What material is the gilet made of?

The gilet is made of technical polyester fabric with Thermore padding for insulation.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold weather?

While it provides warmth, it is best suited for mild to cool conditions. For extreme cold, it is recommended to layer it under a heavier, insulated jacket.

How should I wash the gilet?

Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleaching and dry cleaning.

What sizes are available?

This specific listing is for size XXL. However, the Premium Shield gilet is available in a range of sizes, including S, M, L, and XL, in both blue and black colorways.

Does the gilet have a hood?

No, this gilet features a stand collar for wind protection, but it does not have a hood.

Can this gilet be worn for formal occasions?

No, its design is inherently sporty and casual, making it unsuitable for formal wear. It is best paired with athleisure or casual outfits.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, try applying a small amount of graphite pencil lead or wax to the teeth of the zipper.

Fabric appears wrinkled after washing

Remove the gilet from the washing machine promptly. Lay it flat or hang it to air dry. If needed, iron on a cool setting, avoiding direct heat on the logo.

Padding feels uneven

Gently redistribute the padding by hand. This may occur after washing or prolonged compression. Ensure the gilet is dry before attempting to smooth out the padding.

Logo patch is peeling

Avoid direct heat and excessive rubbing on the logo. If minor peeling occurs, try gently pressing it back into place with a cool iron and a protective cloth, but avoid high heat.
