Troubleshooting

Jacket is not keeping the child warm enough.

Layer additional clothing underneath the jacket, such as a fleece or a thermal base layer, for extra warmth.

Water is seeping through the jacket in the rain.

The jacket is water-resistant, not waterproof. For heavy rain, use a waterproof outer layer.

Zippers are sticking.

Lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap. Gently work the zipper back and forth.
