FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?

The Acorus jacket provides excellent warmth for its weight and is ideal for transitional seasons or as a layer in colder weather. For extreme cold, additional layers or a heavier-duty winter coat may be necessary.

How do I ensure the down filling is properly dry after hand washing?

After hand washing and removing excess water, lay the jacket flat or hang it to air dry. Gently massage the down clumps to break them up. You can also use a low-heat dryer with tennis balls to help re-fluff the filling once it is mostly dry.

Can this jacket be machine washed?

No, the care instructions specify hand wash only to preserve the integrity of the down filling and the delicate nylon fabric.

What does 'longue saison' nylon mean?

Longue saison is a specific type of nylon fabric developed by Moncler that is known for its lightweight feel, resistance to wind and water, and smooth finish, providing warmth without bulk.

What are the non-textile parts of animal origin?

These refer to the down and feather filling used in the jacket, which are derived from animals.

How easily does this jacket pack down?

The jacket is designed to be easily foldable into a compact size, making it very convenient to pack in a bag for travel or to store when not in use.

What sizes are available?

This particular product listing is for size 12-18 months. Other sizes, including 18-24 months and 6-9 months, are available under different listings.

Troubleshooting

Jacket appears flat or lacks loft after washing.

Gently tumble dry on a very low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help re-fluff the down and feathers. Ensure it's completely dry afterwards.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Gently run a graphite pencil lead or a bit of lip balm along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Small stain on the fabric.

Spot clean the affected area with a damp cloth and a tiny amount of mild soap. Rinse the area gently with a clean, damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Elasticated cuffs feel loose.

This is generally due to normal wear and tear. For significant looseness, professional tailoring might be an option, though typically not cost-effective for children's wear.
