Full details
This Under Armour Tech Utility Colour Block Jacket is designed for active kids who need to stay comfortable and dry in various weather conditions. Its primary benefit is the UA Storm technology, which repels water while maintaining breathability. A potential consideration is that it's specifically a junior's fit, so adult sizes are not available.

FAQs
What age group is this jacket designed for?
This jacket is designed for kids and juniors.
Is this jacket waterproof or water-resistant?
The jacket features UA Storm technology, which makes it water-resistant, repelling water effectively without sacrificing breathability. It is not fully waterproof.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
This jacket is lightweight and designed for comfort and protection against rain. It is best layered over other clothing for warmth in colder conditions, rather than being a primary insulator.
What does '4-way stretch' mean?
4-way stretch material means the fabric can stretch and recover in four directions – lengthwise and crosswise – allowing for greater freedom of movement.
How do I wash the jacket to maintain its water-repellent properties?
Machine wash cold with like colors, use non-chlorine bleach only if needed, and tumble dry on low. Avoid fabric softeners and ironing, as these can degrade the water-repellent finish.
Are there reflective elements on the jacket?
Yes, the jacket includes reflective details to enhance visibility in low-light conditions.
What materials are used in this jacket?
The primary material is a lightweight stretch-woven fabric made of 87% Polyester and 13% Elastane. The main body fabric contains at least 80% recycled polyester.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not repelling water effectively.
Ensure the jacket has been washed according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners and excessive heat. Re-treatment with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for technical apparel may be necessary over time.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a tiny bit of lip balm to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels less breathable.
Check that the care instructions have been followed, as improper washing can affect breathability. Ensure the garment is clean; dirt and oils can clog pores.
