FAQs
Is this set suitable for heavy rain?
The set features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, which is effective against light rain and snow. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof garment would be more appropriate.
What is the primary purpose of the fleece lining?
The fleece lining is designed to provide warmth and insulation, making the set comfortable for use in cooler temperatures.
Can the jacket and salopettes be worn separately?
Yes, the jacket and salopettes are designed to be versatile and can be worn independently of each other, allowing for different layering options.
How should I care for the garment to maintain its water resistance?
Wash the garment at 30°C with a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Do not iron or dry clean. Re-proofing treatments can be used if water repellency diminishes over time.
Is the sizing true to the UK child size listed?
The set is designed with a snug fit for active children. It is recommended to check the specific size guide provided by Mountain Warehouse and consider the child's measurements for the best fit.
Are there any pockets on the salopettes?
The product description mentions 2 side pockets on the jacket. Specific pocket details for the salopettes are not provided in the description, but they are typically designed for practical wear.
What does 'PFC Free' mean?
PFC Free means the garment is made without perfluorinated chemicals, which are often used in outdoor clothing for water repellency but can have environmental concerns. This indicates a more eco-conscious manufacturing process.
Troubleshooting
Water resistance seems reduced.
Ensure the garment has not been washed with fabric softener. For restored water repellency, consider using a specialized re-proofing spray suitable for outdoor gear, following product instructions.
Child feels cold despite wearing the set.
Check if the size is appropriate; a snug fit is intended, but if it's too tight, it can restrict movement and insulation. Ensure all zippers and fastenings are securely closed to prevent drafts.
Fleece lining is matted.
Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Gentle washing and air drying or low-heat tumble drying are best for preserving the fleece.
