FAQs
What is the filling made of?
The jacket is filled with feather-free, insulated synthetic down, providing warmth without using natural feathers.
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket has a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which is designed to repel light rain and snow. It is not fully waterproof and may not withstand heavy downpours.
How should I wash the jacket?
Machine wash inside out with similar colours using a non-biological detergent. Tumble dry on low with tennis balls or air dry flat. Do not use bleach, fabric softener, or iron.
What does '200gsm filling' mean?
GSM stands for grams per square meter. 200gsm indicates a substantial weight of insulation material used, suggesting good warmth for its type.
What age group is this jacket for?
This specific listing is for children's UK size 5-6 years.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
It is designed for warmth and should be suitable for cold weather. For extreme conditions, layering may be advisable.
Are there other sizes or colours available?
This guide focuses on the Black, Size 5-6 variant. Other sizes and colours may be available from the retailer; please check product listings.
Troubleshooting
Jacket seems less warm after washing
Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dry. Tumble drying on a low heat with tennis balls can help re-fluff the synthetic down filling and restore its loft and warmth.
Water repellency is reduced
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish can diminish over time. Consider using a re-proofing spray specifically designed for outdoor clothing after washing to restore this feature.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If needed, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth.
