FAQs

How do I wash my EA7 Core Identity Packable Gilet?

Machine wash cold on a delicate cycle. Do not tumble dry, bleach, iron, or dry clean. Air dry flat and fluff periodically to redistribute the down.

Is this gilet waterproof?

The gilet is made from technical polyamide fabric, which offers some water resistance, but it is not fully waterproof. It's designed to protect against light moisture and provide warmth.

Can I wear this gilet in very cold winter weather?

This gilet is best suited for milder weather conditions or as a layering piece under a heavier jacket for added warmth in colder temperatures. It's not designed as a standalone garment for extreme cold.

What material is the gilet made of?

The EA7 Core Identity Packable Gilet is made from 100% polyamide, with goose down padding for insulation.

Does the gilet have pockets?

Yes, it features two practical side pockets with zip fastenings for secure storage of your essentials.

What is meant by 'packable'?

The term 'packable' means the gilet can be easily folded and compressed into its included dust bag, making it compact and convenient for travel or storage.

What kind of fit does this gilet have?

The gilet is designed with a regular fit, offering comfortable wear and allowing for easy layering.

Troubleshooting

Gilet appears flat or not as warm as expected.

This is common after storage or washing. Gently shake and pat the gilet to redistribute the goose down. Allow it to air out and loft for several hours or overnight. Ensure it's completely dry if recently washed.

Difficult to pack into the dust bag.

Ensure the gilet is folded neatly and evenly. Start by folding the arms (if present) inward, then fold it lengthwise. Roll or fold it tightly from the bottom up, gently compressing as you go. Air out any trapped air as you pack it into the bag.

Foul odor after washing or prolonged storage.

This can happen if the down did not dry completely. Rewash the gilet following the care instructions carefully, ensuring it is thoroughly air-dried in a well-ventilated area, gently fluffing it periodically until all moisture is gone.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth and insulation due to goose down padding.
  • Highly portable and space-saving with its fully packable design.
  • Stylish and modern athletic aesthetic with the EA7 branding.
  • Versatile for various activities, from sports to casual wear.
  • Convenient and secure storage with zippered side pockets.
  • Comfortable and secure fit provided by the elasticated hem.

Cons

  • Requires specific care instructions (machine wash cold, no tumble dry) due to goose down and polyamide material.
  • Not intended as a standalone outer layer for extreme cold weather conditions.
  • Goose down products can be sensitive to improper washing, potentially leading to clumping if not dried correctly (though machine drying is not recommended).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup

Upon receiving your EA7 Core Identity Packable Gilet, remove it from its packaging and dust bag. The goose down insulation may appear compressed. Allow the gilet to *loft* naturally for a few hours by gently shaking it and laying it flat, which will help it regain its full insulating power.

Compatibility

This gilet is designed for regular fit and is highly compatible with various clothing systems:

  • Layering: Wear it over base layers or light sweaters for added warmth. It fits comfortably under heavier jackets or coats for colder conditions.
  • Activities: Suitable for active wear during sports or as a casual layering piece for everyday use.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial for maintaining the performance and longevity of your gilet. Follow these guidelines closely:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a delicate cycle. Use a mild detergent. For best results with down-filled items, use a specific down wash if available. Close all zippers before washing.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Tumble drying can damage the down and fabric. Instead, lay the gilet flat on a clean, dry surface or hang it to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heat.
  3. Lofting During Drying: While drying, periodically fluff the gilet by hand to redistribute the down and prevent clumping. This helps restore its original loft and warmth.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron.
  5. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  6. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.

Following these steps will help preserve the gilet's insulating properties and overall appearance.
