How do I find the right size for my child?

Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem warm enough.
Ensure the jacket is zipped up completely and the hood is worn. For very cold temperatures, consider layering appropriate clothing underneath.
Water repellency seems to be diminishing.
The water-repellent finish can wear off over time. Follow the specific care instructions for cleaning, as dirt can affect performance. It may be possible to re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment suitable for outerwear; consult a care specialist or product care guide for more information.
Zipper gets stuck or is difficult to move.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the slider up and down. A small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., a graphite pencil rubbed on the teeth) can help.
Jacket has a minor tear or snag.
For small tears, use a fabric repair patch designed for outdoor gear to prevent further damage and maintain insulation integrity. For larger damages, professional repair may be necessary.
