Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt or residue. Re-apply a waterproofing treatment suitable for polyester fabrics if necessary, following product instructions. Check that seams are intact.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently pull the zipper while holding the fabric taut. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Child feels clammy inside the jacket
This may indicate the need for better ventilation or that the child is overdressed. Ensure the hood is not sealed too tightly and consider removing insulating layers underneath if the temperature or activity level has increased.
