Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the jacket is correctly sized for your child to allow for proper layering. Check that the zipper is fully closed and the cuffs are snug. For very cold conditions, consider adding additional thermal layers underneath.
Water repellency seems reduced, or water is soaking in.
The water-repellent finish can wear off over time or with improper washing. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and if the issue persists, consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) restorative spray or wash-in product designed for outdoor gear.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.
Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. If the zipper is still stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth to help it move smoothly.
Reflective trims appear dull or dirty.
Clean the jacket according to the care instructions. If dirt or residue is obscuring the reflective material, gently wipe it with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh scrubbing which could damage the trim.

Care Instructions
Proper care helps maintain the jacket's performance and longevity. Follow these general guidelines, and always check the garment's specific care label:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the water-repellent finish and insulation.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably, hang to air dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
