Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is snowproof and treated with a DWR finish, which makes it water-repellent for snow and light moisture, but it is not fully seam-sealed for heavy rain.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
We recommend air drying, but if necessary, you can tumble dry on the lowest heat setting.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is a 'grown-on' design, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket for better wind and snow protection.
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket is constructed from durable, high-quality polyester.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
The jacket includes adjustable cuffs and a secure zip fastening system, allowing for a snug fit over base layers.
Troubleshooting
Water seems to soak into the fabric
The DWR finish has likely worn off; apply a waterproof re-proofer spray to restore the water-repellent properties.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Clear any debris or fabric caught in the teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; applying a small amount of zipper lubricant can also help.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Raptor Snow Ski Jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
- Re-treating: Over time, water-repellent performance may diminish. Use a standard spray-on DWR replenishment product to restore the snowproof finish.
- Storage: Store the jacket on a hanger in a dry, well-ventilated area to maintain the integrity of the fleece lining and synthetic outer shell.
