FAQs

What does Isotex 20000 mean?

Isotex 20000 is a waterproof, breathable and windproof fabric technology. The '20000' indicates its hydrostatic head rating, meaning it can withstand a column of water 20,000mm high before showing signs of leakage, offering excellent protection against heavy rain.

Is this jacket insulated?

No, the Highton Shell Jacket is a waterproof shell jacket. It is designed to protect from rain and wind and can be layered over insulating clothing like fleece or sweaters for warmth.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the product's size guide, which typically provides measurements for chest, waist, and height. For this kids' jacket, the size '5-6 Years' corresponds to a specific age and height range.

Can this jacket be worn year-round?

Yes, it can be worn year-round. In warmer, wet weather, it provides protection without overheating due to its breathability. In colder weather, it serves as an effective waterproof outer layer over warmer mid-layers.

What kind of activities is this jacket best suited for?

It's ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities including hiking, camping, school, and general outdoor play in wet or windy conditions.

How often should I re-apply the water-repellent finish?

The need to re-apply depends on usage and how often the jacket is washed. It's generally recommended to re-apply after washing, or when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface but soaking into the fabric.

Troubleshooting

Water is leaking through the jacket seams.

Ensure the garment has been washed correctly using pure soap and that a water-repellent finish has been applied and is functional. Check for any damage to the taped seams.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

This can sometimes occur if the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish is worn out. Re-applying a DWR treatment can restore breathability. Ensure the mesh lining is clean and not obstructed.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check the zipper for any fabric caught in it. Gently try to free any obstructions. If necessary, use a graphite pencil or a wax-based lubricant on the zipper teeth.
