FAQs

What age group is this set designed for?

This specific set is for kids aged 7-8 years, with size guides available for other age groups.

Is the set fully waterproof?

The set has a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, making it water-resistant, not fully waterproof. It is suitable for light rain and damp conditions but not heavy downpours.

What is the material of the jacket and salopettes?

Both the jacket and salopettes are made from 100% Polyester, with the jacket featuring a fleece lining.

How do I wash the set?

Machine wash at 30°C. Avoid bleach, high heat for ironing or tumble drying, and dry cleaning.

Does the hood have adjustable features?

The hood is fleece-lined and elasticated for a snug fit, offering good coverage and warmth.

Are there pockets on the salopettes?

The product description specifies 2 side pockets on the jacket. Pockets on the salopettes are not explicitly detailed but are common features.

What does 'PFC Free' mean?

PFC Free means the garment has been manufactured without the use of perfluorinated chemicals, which are often used in waterproofing treatments but can be harmful to the environment.

What is the 'Snug Fit'?

A 'Snug Fit' indicates that the garment is designed to fit closely to the body, offering a streamlined profile and potentially better heat retention. It may be less loose than a standard fit.

Troubleshooting

Jacket zipper is stiff.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the teeth for smoother operation.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Reapply a PFC-free waterproofing treatment after washing according to the product's instructions.

Fleece lining feels matted.

This can happen after repeated washing. Ensure you are following the low-heat tumble dry instructions and avoid high heat, which can damage the fleece fibers.

Salopettes are too long/short.

Check the size guide provided. Salopettes often have adjustable straps; ensure these are correctly set. If the length is significantly off, consider if the correct size was ordered.
