FAQs
Is this suit suitable for heavy rain?
With a 2,000mm waterproof rating, it is excellent for light to moderate rain, though it may eventually saturate in extreme, prolonged downpours.
Can this be worn in the winter?
Yes, but because it is a shell suit without thick insulation, you should layer your child with thermal clothing underneath.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the specific UK child size provided. If you are unsure, we recommend measuring your child's height and chest to ensure the elasticated waistband fits comfortably.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is integrated into the design to ensure it stays in place and provides maximum wind and rain protection.
Can I tumble dry the suit?
No, you should always air dry the suit to prevent damage to the waterproof coating and the integrity of the fabric.
Troubleshooting
Water seems to be leaking through the zipper
Ensure that the stud-closing storm flap is pressed firmly shut over the entire length of the zipper after closing it.
The suit feels cold to wear
The suit is designed as a shell; ensure the child is wearing adequate insulating layers underneath to retain body heat.
Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off
The waterproof coating may have worn off from heavy use; consider applying a technical wash-in waterproofing treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Wetplay suit, always check the fit before use; the elasticated waistband should be snug but not restrictive. When putting on the suit, ensure the storm flap is properly closed over the zip to guarantee the waterproof seal. Regarding care, the garment should be hand-washed or machine-washed on a gentle cycle in cool water. Avoid using harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof coating. Always air dry the suit away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high heat can damage the fabric membrane.
