Can the reflective details be washed off?
The reflective details are designed to be durable. Standard washing according to care instructions should preserve them. Avoid abrasive cleaning methods.

Troubleshooting
Water seeping through seams
Ensure seams are fully sealed and that the garment has been washed with a re-proofer to maintain the DWR finish. Check that the water-repellent zips are fully closed.
Reduced water repellency
Wash the dungarees using a technical wash and a re-proofer. Avoid using fabric softener or harsh detergents, which can damage the fabric's waterproof properties.
Child feels cold while wearing
The dungarees are unlined and designed for active wear. For colder weather, layer thermal base layers underneath to ensure adequate warmth.
Stiff fabric after washing
