FAQs
What does the 10,000mm rating mean for waterproofing?
A 10,000mm rating indicates that the fabric can withstand 10,000 millimeters of water in a vertical test, signifying a high level of waterproofing suitable for heavy rain.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
Yes, the jacket is designed with a spacious fit to accommodate warm layers like fleeces or sweaters underneath, making it suitable for cold and wet conditions.
Is the material breathable?
While primarily designed for waterproofing, the PU material offers a degree of breathability. However, for intense physical activity, some moisture buildup may occur.
How do I ensure the reflective details remain effective?
Avoid excessive abrasion during washing and drying. Do not iron the reflective areas. Gentle machine washing and air drying are best for preserving them.
What sizes are available for this jacket?
This jacket is available in a range of children's sizes, from 12-18 months up to 11-12 years. The specific variant mentioned is for ages 7-8 years.
Is the hood detachable?

What is the warranty period for this jacket?
Information regarding the specific warranty period is not provided in the product details.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not fully waterproof after washing.
Ensure no fabric softener or harsh detergents were used. Check that all seams are intact and that the hood, cuffs, and hem provide a snug fit. Re-washing with a mild detergent might help restore properties.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels restrictive during movement.
While designed for comfort, ensure the correct size is being used. If layering heavily, consider if a larger size might be needed for more freedom of movement.
