Product Information
Full details
The Trespass Simone Padded Gilet is a versatile, lightweight outer layer designed for women who need core warmth without the restriction of a full jacket. Perfect for transitional weather or layering during outdoor activities, it features a reliable padded construction and protective storm flaps. While it offers excellent mobility and wind resistance, users should note that as a sleeveless garment, it is best suited as a mid-layer or for days when only the torso requires extra insulation.

FAQs
Is the Simone Gilet waterproof?
The gilet features an inner storm flap for wind and light rain protection, but it is not classified as waterproof.
How should I choose my size?
The gilet follows standard UK dress sizing. If you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath, you may prefer to size up.
Can I wear this while hiking?
Yes, it is excellent for hiking as it provides core warmth while allowing full range of motion for your arms.
What is the best way to clean the gilet?
Use a gentle machine wash cycle with mild detergent. Always avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Are the pockets deep enough for large smartphones?
The zip pockets are designed for standard essentials, but size compatibility depends on the specific dimensions of your phone case.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or gets stuck
Check for loose fabric caught in the track and rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to lubricate the zipper.
Padding feels clumped after washing
Place the garment in the dryer on a low-heat setting with clean tennis balls to help fluff and redistribute the internal insulation.
Pros and Cons

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The gilet does not require any specialized setup; simply ensure the size matches your dress size for the intended layering purpose.
Care Instructions:
- Always check the internal care label before washing.
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can compromise the thermal properties of the padding.
- Tumble dry on low or, ideally, air dry away from direct sunlight to maintain the loft of the padding.
- Keep away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the synthetic polyester fibers.
