FAQs

What is Thermore padding?

Thermore is a type of thermal insulation made from synthetic fibers, designed to provide warmth without excessive bulk. It mimics the properties of down but offers better performance when damp.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

This gilet provides moderate warmth. For very cold conditions, it is best used as a layering piece with additional insulated outerwear.

What does the 'Premium Shield' refer to?

This likely refers to the EA7 branding style, featuring a shield logo patch, indicating a specific collection or design aesthetic within the EA7 range.

Can I put this gilet in a washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash it cold with like colors, but avoid bleach and tumble dry on low or hang dry for best results.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stuck

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth and try again. Ensure no fabric is caught in the slider.

Padding feels uneven

After washing, gently redistribute the Thermore padding by hand to ensure it is evenly spread throughout the gilet. Hang dry can help prevent clumping.

Garment loses shape after washing

Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, especially regarding water temperature and drying methods. Avoid wringing the garment.
