FAQs

What does the "OLD" treatment mean for the vest's appearance?

The "OLD" treatment is a garment-dyeing process that gives the vest a distinctive, pre-worn, and slightly faded appearance, simulating the look of a well-loved vintage item. This is an intentional design feature.

Is the vest warm enough for winter?

The vest features a quilted lining, providing some warmth, but it is primarily designed as a layering piece for transitional weather or milder climates. It may not be sufficient as primary outerwear in very cold winter conditions.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the brand's specific size chart. Consider the intended layering; if you plan to wear it over thicker items, you might consider sizing up. The provided product details specify this is a size M.

Can I machine wash the vest?

Yes, a machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with similar colors is recommended. Always air dry to preserve the fabric and dye.

What is the material of the vest?

The vest is made from 100% Cotton.

How many pockets does the vest have?

The vest features maxi front bellows pockets, typically two large ones located on the front.

What is the closure type for the main opening?

The vest features a front zip closure.

Troubleshooting

Color appears uneven or faded

This is a characteristic of the "OLD" garment-dyeing treatment, intended to create a vintage look. If excessive fading is a concern, ensure you are following the recommended care instructions precisely, especially regarding washing and drying.

Stitching feels loose

Inspect the stitching carefully. If it is a minor looseness, it may not affect the garment's integrity. For significant issues, consult a tailor or contact customer support if the item is under warranty.

Pocket snap buttons are difficult to close/open

Ensure the fabric around the snap is not bunched up. If the buttons feel stiff, try gently working them back and forth. Avoid forcing them, which could damage the fabric or the snaps.
