Alpine Down
Pyro Gilet
£269
Including UK VAT.
New for winter 2019 and our first ever vest, the Pyro gilet is a lightweight design with box wall baffles to maximise warmth whilst at the same time keeping weight and bulk to a minimum. Like the jacket, the cut is generous in length and there are two hand-warmer pockets. The outer shell is robust and water-resistant which means it can handle a fair amount of abuse.

Care & attention+
Down is a very resilient insulating material and, with basic care, any down jacket should last you a very long time. There are two simple rules to ensure longevity:
1. Always store your jacket uncompressed in a dry, airy place
2. Try to keep it as clean as possible to minimize washing (this ultimately damages the down).
We highly recommend you hand-wash your down garment or, alternatively, use a professional service. You can download washing instructions here.
