No, it is designed to be water-resistant, meaning it provides protection against light rain, drizzles, and splashes. It is not intended for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to severe wet conditions.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Tumble dry low, preferably with 2-3 clean dryer balls (like tennis balls) to help fluff the goose down and prevent clumping. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
The gilet provides excellent core warmth with its goose down padding. For very cold winter weather, it is best used as a mid-layer underneath a heavier, insulated outer jacket to maximize warmth and protection.
'Packable' means the gilet can be compressed and stored compactly into its accompanying dust bag. To pack, lay it flat, fold it lengthwise, and then roll it tightly from the bottom up before placing it in the bag.
The outer shell and lining are made of 100% Polyester, and it features warm goose down padding for insulation.
Yes, the EA7 Core Identity Packable Gilet comes with a dedicated dust bag for easy and compact transport or storage.
It is suitable for a range of sports and leisure activities, offering warmth without restricting movement. Its lightweight and sleeveless design make it a good choice for active use where core warmth is needed without overheating.
This is often due to down clumping. Tumble dry on low heat with 2-3 clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps break up clumps and restore the down's loft and insulating properties. Repeat cycles if necessary, ensuring it's completely dry to prevent mildew.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper as you operate it. If the zipper is stiff, rub a graphite pencil tip or a small amount of zipper lubricant along the teeth to help it move smoothly.
Over time, the water-resistant coating can wear off. While the product information doesn't specify re-treatment, for general polyester care, you could consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for technical fabrics after washing. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Ensure the gilet is laid flat to remove air, then fold it lengthwise. Starting from the bottom, roll it as tightly and evenly as possible. The key is to compress out the air as you roll. The provided dust bag is designed for a snug fit.
This gilet is designed for straightforward use, offering seamless integration into your active lifestyle.
Proper care will maintain the gilet's warmth and longevity.
