FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The adidas Sportswear Rain Kids Windbreaker is designed primarily for protection against rain and wind. It is lightweight and not insulated. For very cold weather, it should be used as an outer shell layered over warm clothing, but it will not provide significant warmth on its own.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester, which contributes to its lightweight feel, durability, and quick-drying properties.
How do I choose the correct size for my child?
This specific windbreaker is sized for children aged 7-8 years. For the most accurate fit, it's always recommended to consult the official adidas sizing chart, which typically provides guidance based on height and chest measurements rather than just age.
Can the hood be removed?
No, the hood on this adidas Sportswear Rain Kids Windbreaker features gathered bindings for a snug fit and is a fixed component of the jacket, designed to offer continuous protection.
How does CLIMAPROOF technology work?
CLIMAPROOF technology acts as a barrier, using waterproof materials and seam-sealed construction to block harsh weather elements like rain and wind. Simultaneously, its breathable design allows sweat vapor from the inside to escape, ensuring the wearer remains dry and comfortable from both external and internal moisture.
Are the pockets truly waterproof for electronics?
The reversed-entry pockets are highly effective at protecting contents from rain and splashes. While they offer excellent water resistance for most items, for sensitive electronics or critical documents in heavy or prolonged downpours, it's always safest to use an additional dedicated waterproof pouch.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside, despite being waterproof.
Ensure all zippers are completely closed and the hood is properly adjusted during wear. Sometimes, if the wearer is highly active, internal moisture (sweat) can accumulate if the jacket's breathability is overwhelmed, or if layers underneath are not breathable. If the issue persists, review care instructions; improper washing or drying (e.g., using fabric softener) can reduce the water-repellent effectiveness over time.
Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.
Gently pull the fabric taut around the zipper area to relieve tension. Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Occasionally, a small amount of zipper lubricant (like zipper wax) can improve smooth operation. Avoid forcing the zipper to prevent damage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
The adidas Sportswear Rain Kids Windbreaker requires no complicated setup. Simply wear it over your child's clothing as an outer layer when rain or wind protection is needed. Ensure the front zipper is fully closed for maximum weather defense, and adjust the hood for a snug fit if desired.
Compatibility
This windbreaker is specifically designed for children aged 7-8 years (UK sizing). It is compatible with various layering options underneath, from a simple t-shirt on mild rainy days to a fleece or sweater for cooler, windier conditions. Its lightweight design ensures it won't add bulk, allowing for comfortable movement.
Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the `CLIMAPROOF` properties and extend the lifespan of the jacket. Follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent. Wash with like colors.
- Bleaching: Do not bleach.
- Drying: Tumble dry low or hang dry in a shaded area. Avoid high heat, as it can damage the waterproof coating.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
- Fabric Softeners: Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the jacket's water-repellent finish and breathability.
