Core Hooded Softshell Jacket - Red - 9-10

The '9-10' size is designed for children aged 9 to 10 years old, with specific chest and height measurements provided in the product description.

The jacket offers waterproof protection with an 8000mm rating, suitable for moderate rain. For very heavy downpours, additional waterproof outerwear might be necessary.

Yes, the inner microfleece lining provides extra warmth, making it suitable for cooler temperatures. For very cold conditions, layering with a thermal base layer and mid-layer is recommended.

Wash at 30°C or 40°C with similar colours, and avoid bleach, high heat tumble drying, and ironing. Air drying is often best for preserving the fabric's performance.

The TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) membrane is a key component of the fabric, providing waterproof, windproof, and breathable qualities to the jacket.

To preserve the reflective details, avoid high heat during washing and drying. Gentle washing and air drying are recommended.

Ensure all zips are fully closed. Check the TPU membrane for any damage. If heavily soiled, wash according to care instructions as dirt can affect water repellency.

This can happen if the breathability is overwhelmed by excessive perspiration. Ensure the jacket is not too tight, allowing for air circulation. Consider wearing lighter layers underneath in milder conditions.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth if the issue persists.

This is often due to excessive heat from washing or drying, or abrasion. Avoid high heat washing and drying. Hand wash gently if possible and air dry.
