FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, this jacket is made from fleece material, designed for warmth and comfort. It is not waterproof and will not protect against rain. For wet conditions, we recommend layering it under a waterproof outer shell.

What age group is this jacket designed for?

This specific variant is for kids, designed for female children aged 5-6 (UK size).

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

This fleece jacket provides warmth but is best suited for mild to cool, dry weather. For very cold conditions, it should be used as a mid-layer underneath a more substantial, insulated, and windproof outer jacket.

How do I clean the reflective stripes?

The reflective stripes can be cleaned as part of the regular machine washing process. Avoid direct scrubbing with harsh brushes or strong chemicals to preserve their integrity.

Are the pockets secure for holding small items?

Yes, the jacket features secure zippered hand pockets, including concealed ones with reverse coil zippers, designed to keep small items safely inside.

What is the material of the jacket?

The jacket is made from a comfortable fleece material, known for its warmth and soft texture.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm after washing.

Ensure you are not using fabric softener during washing, as it can coat fleece fibers and reduce their insulating capability. Wash with mild detergent and tumble dry on low.

Zipper feels stiff or snags.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, gently rub a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a zipper lubricant along the teeth to smooth operation.

Reflective stripes appear dull or damaged.

Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive detergents directly on the reflective areas during cleaning. Gentle washing and air drying are recommended to preserve their integrity.

Setup The jacket requires no setup. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure the fit is appropriate for your child's size (UK 5-6) to allow for comfortable movement and layering if needed. ### Compatibility This jacket is designed to be highly compatible with various clothing systems. It can be worn over a base layer (like a t-shirt or long-sleeve top) for warmth, or comfortably fit under a waterproof or windproof outer shell for protection against the elements. Its 'Pink' color family makes it a versatile addition to many children's wardrobes. ### Care To ensure the longevity and performance of your jacket, follow these care instructions: 1. Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle. 2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the fleece fibers and reduce its insulating properties. 3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid high heat, which can cause shrinkage or damage to the fabric. 4. Ironing: Do not iron. 5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. 6. Storage: Store in a clean, dry place when not in use.
