FAQs
What materials is the Roman Camo Print Longline Hooded Gilet made from?
The gilet is constructed from 100% Polyester for the outer fabric, 100% Polyester Wadding for insulation, and 100% Polyester Lining, ensuring warmth, durability, and easy care.
Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter conditions?
Designed for the Winter season, its polyester wadding and longline hooded design provide good warmth. For extremely cold conditions, it's best used as an effective layering piece over substantial knitwear or thermal tops.
How should I properly wash this gilet to maintain its quality?
Always check the garment's care label first for specific instructions. Generally, polyester gilets should be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on low heat or air dry to preserve the fabric and shape.
Does the hood on the gilet have an adjustable feature?
Yes, the hood is equipped with a drawcord fastening, allowing you to adjust it for a snugger fit, enhanced warmth, or protection against wind and light precipitation.
Are the pockets on the gilet secure for carrying personal items?
Absolutely. The gilet features functional zip pockets, designed to securely hold your small personal essentials like keys, cards, or a phone, preventing them from falling out.
Will the camouflage pattern fade after washing?
With proper care according to the garment's label, the polyester fabric and printed camouflage pattern are designed to maintain their color and appearance. Avoiding harsh chemicals and excessive sun exposure will help prevent fading.
Is this gilet heavy or lightweight to wear?
While providing ample warmth due to its wadding, the gilet is designed as a comfortable layering piece. It offers warmth without excessive bulk, making it relatively lightweight and easy to wear for its insulation capabilities.
Troubleshooting
Gilet feels too snug or too loose despite ordering your usual size.
This gilet is designed to fit true to size. If the fit is not ideal, verify your current measurements against a standard sizing chart for UK Women's Dress Sizes. Consider the thickness of the layers you are wearing underneath; heavy knitwear can make a gilet feel tighter than intended. If still unsatisfied, consult the retailer's return/exchange policy.
Fabric appears creased or wrinkled after storage or washing.
Polyester garments can sometimes develop creases. Avoid ironing directly with high heat, which can damage the fabric. Instead, try gently steaming the gilet to release wrinkles. Alternatively, hang the gilet in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes, or use a fabric wrinkle release spray if suitable for polyester.
Zip feels stiff or gets stuck.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zip mechanism. For stiffness, you can try rubbing a graphite pencil tip or a small amount of household lubricant (like beeswax or a dedicated zipper lubricant) along the zip teeth. Operate the zip slowly a few times to distribute the lubricant.

Care Instructions
Proper care will help maintain the gilet's quality, shape, and appearance over time. Always refer to the specific care label attached to your garment for the most accurate instructions.
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle, preferably with cold water. Use a mild detergent to protect the fabric and print.
- Bleaching: Do not use bleach, as it can damage the polyester fibers and fade the camouflage print.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or ideally, air dry by laying flat or hanging to maintain its shape and prevent shrinking or stretching.
- Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can melt or damage polyester fabric. If creases occur, a gentle steam might be an option, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean unless explicitly stated on the care label.
