FAQs
Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter weather?
While the gilet is down-filled and offers good warmth, it is best described as a trans-seasonal piece. For very cold winter conditions, it is recommended to use it as a mid-layer under a heavier, waterproof outer jacket.
How do I know if the 9-12 months size will fit my baby?
Sizing can vary by brand. It's advisable to consult the specific sizing chart provided by Moncler Enfant or the retailer for this garment, comparing it with your baby's current measurements.
Can I wash this gilet in a regular washing machine?
Yes, but it's crucial to use a gentle or delicate cycle, a specialized down detergent, and to tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
What does 'Recycled Longue Saison' mean?
Longue Saison is a signature Moncler nylon fabric. 'Recycled' indicates that the material used is made from post-consumer or post-industrial waste, contributing to sustainability efforts.
Is the gilet fully waterproof?
The fabric is water-repellent, meaning it can resist light rain or moisture. It is not fully waterproof and may not offer complete protection in heavy downpours.
What is the primary benefit of the packable design?
The packable design allows the gilet to be compressed into a small size, making it easy to carry in a diaper bag or travel luggage for use when needed, without taking up much space.
Troubleshooting
Gilet appears flat after washing
Place the gilet back in the tumble dryer on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This process helps to re-fluff the down insulation.
Water repellency seems reduced
The water-repellent finish may diminish over time. Consider using a reproofing spray specifically designed for down garments and technical outerwear after cleaning and drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
Small down feathers are escaping
Some minor leakage of down is normal with high-quality down-filled products. Ensure the garment has been washed and dried correctly, as improper care can exacerbate this. If excessive leakage occurs, contact customer support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment; no setup is required.
Compatibility: Designed for infants aged 9-12 months. Its primary function is outerwear, suitable for layering over various types of infant clothing.
Care Instructions:
