FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket provides excellent protection against rain and wind. For very cold conditions, it's recommended to layer a warm insulating jacket underneath.
How do I know if I'm ordering the correct size?
This jacket is sized for children aged 3-4 years. Please refer to standard UK children's sizing charts if unsure, but the description indicates it is specifically for this age group.
Can this jacket be worn for school PE lessons?
Yes, its waterproof and breathable properties make it suitable for outdoor activities during school, including PE lessons held outside.
What is Isotex 20000?
Isotex 20000 is a type of waterproof, breathable fabric that can withstand a hydrostatic head of 20,000mm of water and allows 15,000g/m²/24hrs of water vapor to pass through.
How often should I re-proof the jacket?
Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface or is starting to soak into the fabric. This is typically needed every few washes or after significant wear.
Is the hood adjustable?
Yes, the jacket features a technical hood, which generally implies it is designed for effective coverage and may have adjustment features for a snugger fit.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric
Ensure the jacket has been washed correctly without fabric conditioner. Consider applying a re-waterproofing treatment designed for technical fabrics.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This can be due to a lack of breathability, often caused by dirt or residues. Wash the jacket according to care instructions. Ensure the mesh lining is clean.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow it to dry. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth.
