FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, which means it can withstand light rain or splashes, but it is not fully waterproof and may not perform well in heavy downpours.
What is Warmloft insulation?
Warmloft is a synthetic insulation technology that mimics the warmth and loft of down without its bulk, providing effective heat retention even in damp conditions.
Can the hood be removed?
No, the hood is grown-on, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket and cannot be removed.
How do I wash the jacket?
It is recommended to machine wash the jacket inside out with the zip closed, using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and high heat for drying; tumble dry on a low setting or line dry. Do not iron.
What are the stretch panels made of?
The Extol Stretch panels are made from a blend of 60% polyester, 30% polyester, and 10% elastane, providing flexibility and ease of movement.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
The jacket provides good warmth for its weight, especially with the Warmloft insulation. However, for extremely cold conditions, it may be best used as a mid-layer with additional insulation.
What sizes are available?
This specific listing is for size 6. The jacket is available in a range of kids' sizes, and other colour options may also be available in different sizes.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to wiggle the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth of the zipper.
Water repellency seems reduced
Reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment specifically designed for outdoor fabrics after washing. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
Jacket feels less warm than before
The insulation may have become compressed over time. Ensure the jacket is washed and tumble-dried on a low setting with tennis balls to help restore the loft of the insulation.
Name label (for ages up to 8) is fading
This is a common effect of repeated washing. Future washing should be done inside out on a gentle cycle with mild detergent to prolong the label's legibility.
