Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is integrated into the jacket design for maximum waterproof protection.
Are the trousers lined?
The set is designed to be lightweight and packable, meaning it consists of an unlined waterproof shell perfect for layering over other clothes.
Can I tumble dry the set?
It is recommended to air dry the items to preserve the waterproof integrity and taped seams.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to seep through after heavy use
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need to be reapplied using a standard outdoor fabric reproofing spray.
The fabric feels stiff or noisy
This is normal for lightweight waterproof materials; ensure the child is wearing a comfortable base layer underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the waterproof coating, wash the garments on a gentle cycle in cool water and avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, which can clog the breathable fabric pores. Always ensure the jacket and trousers are completely dry before folding them into the packaway bag to prevent mold or odors. When storing for long periods, keep the set in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to protect the fabric integrity and reflective details.
