FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-resistant due to its DWR finish and softshell fabric, meaning it can withstand light rain and splashes. However, it is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy or prolonged downpours.

What is the best way to clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water (30°C) using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

How do I maintain the water-resistant properties?

Periodically re-apply a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product after washing to refresh the water repellency. Follow the instructions on the re-proofing product.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

Yes, the fleece lining provides warmth, making it suitable for cool weather. For very cold temperatures, it can be effectively layered over other warm clothing.

What does 'softshell' mean for this jacket?

Softshell fabric is known for being comfortable, flexible, and offering a balance of breathability, water resistance, and wind resistance. It's ideal for active wear.

What sizes are available?

This specific listing is for size 3-4 Years. Other sizes, including 5-6 Years, 7-8 Years, 9-10 Years, and 13 Years, are available across different color variants.

Does the jacket have a chin guard?

Yes, the jacket features a chin guard to protect the child's chin from the zipper.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper track. If the issue persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment, following the product's instructions.

Fleece lining feels matted or less soft.

Avoid using fabric softener during washing, as it can degrade the fleece. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing.
