FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Google hood?
The Google hood is a signature C.P. Company feature designed to provide extra protection against the elements, with integrated goggles for visibility and style.
Is this gilet suitable for heavy rain?
The D.D. Shell fabric offers resistance to light rain and wind. For heavy or prolonged rain, additional waterproof outer layers are recommended.
How should I determine the right size?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer or manufacturer. Measure your chest and waist and compare them to the garment's measurements. Consider if you intend to layer thicker items underneath.
Can this gilet be worn on its own in cold weather?
The gilet provides good insulation for mild to cool conditions. For colder weather, it is best used as a mid-layer over sweaters or long-sleeved tops, or under a heavier coat.
What material is the gilet made from?
The gilet is made from 100% Polyamide for the shell and lining.
How do I clean the Google lenses?
Gently wipe the lenses with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh cleaning solutions that could damage the lenses or their coating.
What is the fit like?
The gilet has a regular fit, designed to accommodate layering. It features adjustable drawcords at the hood and waistband for a more customized fit.
Troubleshooting
Goggles fogging up
Ensure the hood is properly adjusted to allow for airflow. For persistent fogging, a mild anti-fog spray designed for eyewear may be cautiously applied, following product instructions.
Zipper is stiff
Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down to loosen it.
Down feathers escaping
This can occasionally happen with down-filled items. Gently pull any escaping feathers back into the garment from the inside if possible. If excessive leakage occurs, contact customer support.
Reduced insulation effectiveness
Ensure the gilet is clean and completely dry. Dampness significantly reduces down's insulating properties. Refer to care instructions for proper cleaning and drying.
