FAQs
What age range is this jacket suitable for?
This jacket is designed for babies and young children, with sizes available from 6 months up to 6 years old.
Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is waterproof and breathable, offering effective protection against bad weather, including rain. For very heavy or prolonged downpours, layering underneath may be advisable.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle with similar colours, using a liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
Are the reflective prints durable?
The reflective prints are designed to improve visibility. While generally durable, their reflectivity may diminish over many washes. Following the care instructions will help prolong their effectiveness.
Can I use fabric softener when washing this jacket?
No, fabric softeners should not be used as they can clog the pores of the fabric and reduce its waterproof and breathable capabilities.
What does 'water-repellent property' mean?
It means the outer fabric has been treated so that water beads up and rolls off the surface, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated and helping to keep the wearer dry.
Does the jacket have a hood?
Yes, the jacket features a built-in hood for added protection against wind and rain.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric.
Ensure the outer fabric is clean. If it's been washed many times, consider using a DWR re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment to restore its water-repellent properties.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
This might be due to humidity from the child's body. Ensure the full zip is open slightly for ventilation if the child is very active. Check that the breathable membrane is not blocked by dirt; clean as per care instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Check for any fabric caught in the teeth. You can lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a tiny amount of wax.
