Under Armour Windbreaker Jacket - Black - M

No, this jacket is water-repellent, not fully waterproof. It's designed to shed light rain and moisture to keep you dry in minor drizzles, but it's not intended for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to severe wet conditions.

The shell and lining of this Under Armour Windbreaker Jacket are made from 100% polyester, providing durability, wind resistance, and water-repellent properties.

This windbreaker provides a good barrier against wind and offers light protection from cold. For true winter conditions, especially in very cold temperatures, it is best used as a layering piece over a warmer mid-layer, like a fleece or insulated top, as it offers limited insulation on its own.

The jacket is machine washable. Always consult the product's care label for specific instructions regarding water temperature and drying methods to ensure its longevity and performance.

The product description mentions side pockets for storing essentials. It does not specify any internal pockets. Info needed: [Confirmation of internal pockets or lack thereof].

Yes, its lightweight, windproof, and water-repellent design makes it suitable for various outdoor activities and sports where light weather protection is needed, such as light jogging, cycling, or playing outdoors. For highly intense or sweat-inducing activities, consider Under Armour's more breathable performance lines.

Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and oils can clog the fabric's pores, reducing its water-repellent capability. Wash according to care instructions. If the issue persists after washing, the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish might need re-application using a specialized spray-on or wash-in product, available at outdoor retailers.

Refer to the Under Armour size chart and compare it against your child's current measurements. Children grow quickly, so a size up or down might be necessary. The elasticated features provide some flexibility, but the overall fit depends on correct sizing.

Polyester can sometimes generate static electricity. To reduce static, try using a fabric softener (specifically formulated for athletic wear if possible) during washing, or allow the jacket to air dry instead of tumble drying. A dryer sheet can also help if tumble drying.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away and try again. For persistent stiffness, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.
