Using this gilet is a breeze. Just put it on over your regular clothes when it gets chilly. The internal pockets are great for keeping small items like keys or cards, while the zipped outer pockets are perfect for phones or wallets. To keep your gilet in top shape, simply machine wash it. Avoid using harsh detergents as they might damage the fabric. Also, don't dry it under direct sunlight for too long as it could fade the colors. With proper care, this gilet will serve you well for many cold days to come.
