FAQs
What material is the Nike Puffer Jacket made of?
The jacket is composed of 100% polyester, providing durability and a base for its warming and water-repellent properties.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a water-repellent finish, meaning it will protect against light rain and damp conditions. However, it is not fully waterproof and is not intended for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to severe wet weather.
How does the jacket keep my baby warm?
It utilizes Nike's Therma-FIT technology, which is designed to manage the body's natural heat, providing effective insulation to keep your baby warm in cold weather.
What is the recommended age group for this jacket?
This Nike Puffer Jacket is specifically designed for babies/infants.
Can I put gloves on my baby while they wear this jacket?
Yes, the jacket is designed with unsnappable cuffs that can be opened to make room for gloves or mittens, ensuring your baby's hands stay warm and comfortable.
How should I clean the Nike Puffer Jacket?
Always refer to the specific care instructions on the product label inside the jacket for the best results. Generally, polyester puffer jackets benefit from machine washing on a gentle cycle with low heat drying (often with dryer balls).
Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem to be keeping my baby warm enough.
Ensure the jacket is appropriately sized for your baby, as an ill-fitting jacket can reduce warmth. Check that it is zipped up completely. Consider layering with appropriate base layers underneath, especially in very cold conditions.
Water isn't repelling as effectively as before.
The water-repellent finish can diminish over time with wear and washing. Ensure you are following the exact care instructions on the product label. Incorrect washing or drying can sometimes affect the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment. If the label allows, consider using a DWR-restoring wash-in product.
Zipper is stiff or gets stuck.
Gently try to work the zipper up and down, ensuring no fabric is caught. A small amount of zipper lubricant (designed for fabric zippers) can help. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.
Jacket appears flat or less 'puffy' after washing.
After washing and drying according to the care label, tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. These will help to fluff up the insulation and restore the jacket's loft.

Care
Proper care is crucial to maintain the jacket's performance and appearance. Always refer to the specific product care label located inside the jacket. As per product information, the composition is 100% polyester. General recommendations for polyester puffer jackets often include:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry low with tennis balls to help fluff the insulation, or lay flat to air dry. Avoid high heat.
- Bleach/Ironing: Do not bleach or iron.
Adhering to these instructions (or those on the label) will help preserve the Therma-FIT technology and the water-repellent finish.
