Quality Analysis 80/100
This gilet is crafted from durable, weather-resistant shell, ensuring it can withstand various conditions. The use of a two-way zip fastening adds to its functional durability, making it a reliable layering piece.

This gilet, crafted from mid-weight, non-stretchy fabric, offers a regular fit that's true to size, making it a practical layering piece. While its weather-resistant shell and suede trim add durability and style, the lack of stretch suggests a more structured feel rather than a soft, yielding comfort.
Sustainability Impact 50/100
This gilet incorporates conventional polyester and suede, with no details provided on the sourcing or welfare aspects of the lamb suede, or any recycled content for the polyester.
