FAQs

What type of weather is this set best suited for?

This set is ideal for cool to moderately cold weather, offering protection against wind and light rain or snow. It's suitable for everyday outdoor activities and play.

How do I find the correct size?

Please refer to the 'Size Guide' section in the product description, which provides measurements for different age ranges. It's recommended to measure your child and compare with these dimensions for the best fit.

Is the jacket detachable from the salopettes?

Yes, the jacket and salopettes are separate pieces and can be worn together as a set or individually.

Can this set be worn in heavy rain?

The set has a water-resistant finish, which is effective against light moisture. For prolonged or heavy rain, additional waterproof outerwear may be required.

What does 'PFC Free' mean?

PFC-free means the garment has been treated without the use of per- and poly-fluorinated chemicals, which are often used for water repellency but can have environmental impacts. This indicates a more eco-conscious manufacturing process.

How should I clean the set to maintain its features?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Consider re-proofing treatments after several washes to maintain water resistance.

Does the hood offer adjustable features?

The hood is fleece-lined and elasticated, designed to provide a snug fit around the face for warmth and protection, but it does not typically have separate drawstrings for adjustment.

Troubleshooting

Jacket zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the stormflap and fabric are not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Salopettes seem too long or short.

Refer to the size guide provided for the specific measurements. For slight length adjustments, consider rolling up the cuffs of the salopettes temporarily. For a more permanent solution, alteration may be necessary.

Water repellency is reduced after washing.

This is common with wear. Use a technical fabric wash and consider applying a DWR re-proofing spray or treatment as per the product's instructions to restore water resistance.

Fleece lining feels matted.

Avoid high heat drying, which can cause fleece to mat. Gently brush the fleece with a soft brush or wash on a delicate cycle with cool water to help restore its softness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides good warmth due to fleece lining and polyester insulation.
  • Offers protection against light moisture and wind.
  • Designed with children's comfort and activity in mind.
  • Features a practical hooded design for extra coverage.
  • Includes a full zip with stormflap for enhanced weather protection.

Cons

  • The water resistance may not be sufficient for heavy or prolonged rain.
  • The 'snug fit' might not appeal to children who prefer very loose clothing.
  • Polyester material may not offer the same breathability as natural fibers for high-intensity activities.
  • Specific care instructions for washing may be required to maintain fabric properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This is a ready-to-wear set, so there is no specific setup required beyond dressing the child. The jacket and salopettes are designed to be worn together or separately.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the performance and longevity of the fabric, it is recommended to follow these general care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash the set according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can affect the water-resistant properties.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Overheating can damage the fabric and its treatments.
  3. Re-proofing: For optimal water repellency, consider using a re-proofing spray suitable for outdoor clothing after several washes, following the product's specific instructions.
  4. Cleaning Pockets: Ensure pockets are emptied before washing to prevent damage to the fabric or contents.
