FAQs

Is this gilet suitable for very cold weather?

The Carlotte Gilet provides warm down-touch insulation, making it suitable for cooler conditions. For extremely cold weather, it is best used as a layering piece under a warmer, more insulated jacket.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Please refer to the Regatta size guide available on the product page or website. It provides detailed measurements to help you select the best fit.

Can I wash this gilet in a washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash the gilet at 30°C with similar colors. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

What does 'water-repellent' mean in this context?

Water-repellent means the fabric will resist water penetration from light rain or splashes, causing water to bead up and roll off. It does not mean the gilet is fully waterproof and will not protect against prolonged or heavy downpours.

Is the insulation synthetic or down?

The insulation is synthetic, described as 'down-touch insulation', designed to mimic the feel and warmth of down while being easier to care for and perform when damp.

Does it have internal pockets?

Yes, the gilet features one internal security pocket, ideal for keeping valuables safe.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels less warm than expected

Ensure the insulation has not been compressed significantly during storage. Gently fluff the insulation by hand. Check care label for washing instructions; improper washing can affect insulation performance.

Water-repellent finish is not effective

The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish can degrade over time. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor apparel. Follow product instructions carefully when reapplying.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any debris. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a specialized zipper lubricant) to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Stitching is coming loose

For minor loose threads, carefully trim them with scissors. For significant seam issues, consider professional repair to prevent further damage.
