FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a cool, gentle cycle.
Does the hood detach?
The jacket features an integrated hooded neckline; it does not detach.
Can this be worn in heavy rain?
It is rated at 2000mm, which is suitable for light to moderate rain, but it may soak through during prolonged heavy downpours.
Is the jacket insulated?
No, it is a waterproof shell designed for rain protection and wind resistance, not for thermal warmth.
How do I choose the right size?
We recommend choosing based on your child's age; since it is a shell, you may want to size up slightly if you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath.
What is ripstop fabric?
Ripstop is a reinforced nylon fabric designed to be resistant to tearing, which is perfect for active kids.
Troubleshooting
Water seems to be soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off; consider re-treating the garment with a waterproof spray wash-in product.
Jacket feels damp inside
Ensure the child is not wearing too many layers that trap heat, or check if the jacket is being worn in conditions exceeding its breathability capacity.
Zip is sticking or hard to pull
Check for fabric caught in the teeth or debris; gently clear the track and ensure the zip is aligned correctly before pulling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No specific setup is required; simply choose the correct size based on your child's age and fit preferences. To ensure the jacket maintains its waterproof integrity, wash it on a cool cycle with minimal detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the technical DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the nylon fabric. For drying, hang the garment to air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the seam tape or fabric materials over time.
