What type of insulation does the gilet use?

It features a synthetic fill for excellent insulation.

What occasions is this gilet best suited for?

It is ideal for casual wear, outdoor activities in mild to cool weather, and as a layering piece during transitional seasons.

How should I clean the gilet?

Machine wash cold with like colours, use non-chlorine bleach only if needed, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter conditions?

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the sizing guide and compare with your measurements. If between sizes, consider how you intend to layer underneath; a larger size may be suitable for thicker layers.

Hood attachment is difficult.

Check that the hood's attachment points align correctly with the gilet's corresponding fastenings. Ensure there are no obstructions and that the zipper or snaps are clean and functional.

Reduced warmth after washing.

Ensure the gilet was washed and dried according to the care instructions. Synthetic fill can clump if not properly cared for. Gentle tumble drying on low heat can sometimes help to restore loft.
