FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent.

What does ARED 15/15 mean?

ARED 15/15 refers to the fabric's performance rating, meaning it has a 15,000mm waterproof rating and 15,000g/m2/24hr breathability.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

No, fabric softener should be avoided as it can damage the waterproof coating and the breathability of the fabric.

Is the hood removable?

The hood is designed with an elasticated fit for a secure, snug feel against the elements.

Is this jacket suitable for general school wear?

While durable enough for school, its high-performance insulation and technical features are specifically optimized for skiing and mountain activities.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside

Ensure the child is wearing breathable base layers; avoid cotton which traps sweat. Check that all vents are clear.

Water no longer beads on the surface

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a DWR re-proofer, then tumble dry on low to reactivate.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof and breathability rating (ARED 15/15)
  • Fully taped seams offer superior weather protection
  • Effective insulation for cold-weather comfort
  • Durable polyester construction built for active play

Cons

  • Heavier feel due to high-performance insulation
  • Limited to specific performance uses
  • Requires proper maintenance to keep DWR coating effective

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the jacket, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild technical detergent suitable for waterproof garments. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the breathable fabric.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying, use a low heat setting to help reactivate the DWR finish.
  3. Reproofing: Over time, if water stops beading on the surface, use a spray-on DWR treatment to restore the repellent coating.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
