Full details

The Kite Sweet Sparrow Go Coat is designed for active young children, offering excellent protection against rain and wind. Its key benefit lies in its durable, waterproof, and windproof construction with taped seams, ensuring children stay dry and comfortable. A potential consideration is that while it offers significant warmth with its fleece lining, it may be best suited for transitional weather rather than extreme cold without additional layers. This coat features an adorable animal print, a PFC-free water-repellent finish, and is made from recycled materials, aligning with sustainable practices.

FAQs

Is this coat suitable for very cold winter weather?

The coat offers good protection against wind and has a fleece lining for warmth, making it suitable for cooler weather. For extremely cold temperatures, layering additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.

What does 'GOTS certified' mean?

GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification means the product meets strict environmental and social criteria throughout its production, from raw material sourcing to manufacturing. It ensures organic status and responsible processing.

How do I clean the coat to maintain its features?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Line dry or tumble dry on a low setting. Do not dry clean.

Is the water-repellent finish safe for children and the environment?

Yes, the coat uses Bionic Finish® Eco, which is a fluorine-free and environmentally responsible water-repellent finish.

Can the reflective strips be washed?

Yes, the reflective strips are designed to withstand washing according to the care instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the strips.

What are the main benefits of the recycled polyester material?

Using recycled polyester reduces waste by repurposing materials that would otherwise end up in landfill. It also lowers the demand for new fossil fuel-based materials.

How do I know which size to choose?

Refer to the product's size guide, which usually correlates sizes with age ranges (e.g., 18-24 months, 3-4 Years). The specific product listed is size 18-24 months.

Troubleshooting

Coat is not repelling water as effectively.

The Bionic Finish® Eco water repellent treatment may need refreshing. Consider using a PFC-free waterproofing spray suitable for outdoor clothing after washing and drying. Avoid fabric softeners which can degrade the finish.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a bit of wax can help lubricate the teeth.

Fleece lining feels matted after washing.

Avoid high heat when drying. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry. Gently brush the fleece with a soft brush after it has dried to restore its texture.
