STONE ISLAND Hooded Puffer Jacket Juniors - Black - 9-10

RDS stands for Responsible Down Standard. It certifies that the down used in the jacket comes from waterfowl that have been treated ethically, with no live-plucking or force-feeding, and that the down is traceable throughout the supply chain.

Refer to the care label. Generally, wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls until completely dry.

Check the care label. Some down-filled, garment-dyed items can be dry cleaned, but it's crucial to use a cleaner experienced with down and technical fabrics. Hand or machine washing following specific instructions is often preferred.

This is a finishing treatment applied during the garment dyeing process that helps the fabric repel water and stains, maintaining the jacket's appearance and functionality in light moisture.

The badge is typically attached with buttons and can be removed before washing. Hand wash it gently if needed, or wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

While the anti-drop agent provides some water repellency, this jacket is primarily designed for warmth and protection against moderate cold and light precipitation. For heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof outer shell might be necessary.

This refers to the UK children's sizing convention, typically corresponding to an age range of 9 to 10 years old. It's always advisable to consult a size chart if available.

Small amounts of down may initially escape. If significant leakage occurs, check that the garment has been washed and dried according to care instructions. Ensure seams are intact. Minor leaks may stop on their own as the down settles.

This is common with down garments. Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This agitation will help break up clumps and restore the down's loft.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's still stiff, you can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

The anti-drop finish may diminish over time. Consider using a technical wash-in water repellent treatment specifically designed for down-filled outerwear, following the product's instructions carefully.
