FAQs

What kind of padding does this gilet use?

The gilet uses Thermore padding, which is designed to provide warmth and insulation efficiently without adding significant bulk.

Is this gilet suitable for heavy rain?

The gilet is made of technical fabric, offering some resistance to light moisture, but it is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry or lightly wet conditions, or as a layer under a waterproof jacket.

What is the best way to wash the gilet?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleach and high heat ironing.

Can I wear this gilet for intense sports activities?

Yes, the technical fabric and Thermore padding make it suitable for sports and leisure, offering comfort and freedom of movement. However, for very high-intensity activities in extreme cold, additional layers might be necessary.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the EA7 sizing chart for specific measurements. Pay attention to chest, waist, and length to ensure a proper fit, considering it is a gilet meant for layering.

What does the 'Premium Shield' in the name refer to?

This likely refers to the EA7 branding, including the shield logo patch, and the overall quality and design associated with the premium range.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or gets stuck

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.

Gilet feels too tight or too loose

Check the size guide provided by EA7 for accurate measurements. If the fit is not as expected, consider exchanging for a different size.

Padding appears uneven after washing

Gently reshape the padding while the gilet is still damp. Lay flat to dry, or tumble dry on low heat as per care instructions, to help redistribute the insulation.
