Product Information
Full details
The Kite Sweet Sparrow Go Coat is designed for active children aged 3-4 years who need reliable protection from the elements. Its key benefit is providing waterproof, windproof, and warm outerwear made from sustainable materials. A potential consideration is that while highly functional, the animal print might not suit all aesthetic preferences. This coat features taped seams, a fleece-lined hood and back, welt pockets, and adjustable cuffs for comfort and warmth. It is constructed from 100% recycled polyester, making it an eco-conscious choice.

FAQs
What does 'waterproof up to 5,000 mm' mean?
This rating indicates the coat can withstand a significant amount of water pressure before leaking. 5,000 mm is suitable for moderate to heavy rain, keeping the wearer dry during typical outdoor play.
How is this coat environmentally friendly?
The coat is made from 100% recycled polyester, sourced from post-consumer drinking bottles. Additionally, it uses a PFC-free Bionic Finish® Eco for water repellency.
What is the GOTS certification?
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) is a leading certification for textiles made from organic fibers. It ensures that strict environmental and social criteria are met throughout the entire supply chain, from raw material cultivation to manufacturing and labeling.
Can I put this coat in the dryer?
No, the coat should not be tumble dried. It should be air-dried away from direct heat to maintain its shape, waterproofing, and the integrity of the materials.
How do I clean the reflective strips?
The reflective strips should be treated gently. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Standard machine washing at 30°C with mild detergent, followed by air drying, is usually sufficient. Ensure no abrasive elements come into contact with them during washing or drying.
What age group is this specific coat for?
This specific listing is for children aged 3-4 years.
Does the hood have adjustable features?
The hood is fleece-lined for warmth and features a protective chin stand. While not explicitly stated as adjustable with drawstrings, the design aims for a snug fit.
Troubleshooting
Coat is not completely waterproof after washing.
Ensure the Bionic Finish® Eco treatment is still effective. Reapplication might be necessary if water no longer beads on the surface. Follow care instructions meticulously, avoiding fabric softeners which can impact water repellency.
Zipper is difficult to use.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to ease it up and down. Ensure the zipper pull is aligned correctly. A small amount of wax can sometimes help lubricate the zipper if it's stiff.
Fleece lining feels matted.
This can sometimes occur after washing. Ensure the coat is not over-agitated in the washing machine. Avoid high heat when drying. Gentle brushing after drying may help restore the fleece texture.
Velcro straps have lost their grip.
Clean the Velcro by removing any lint or debris. Sometimes pressing the hook and loop sides together firmly after cleaning can help re-establish their grip.
