FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
The jacket features a water-repellent finish, which is ideal for light showers, but it is not classified as fully waterproof for heavy, sustained downpours.
Can the hood be detached?
No, the hood is a grown-on style, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket for maximum warmth and security.
What is the best way to clean this jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid fabric conditioners and tumble drying.
Does this jacket have reflective safety features?
Yes, it includes 360-degree reflective trims to help your child be seen by traffic during dark or low-light conditions.
Is the padding bulky?
The padding is designed to provide significant warmth while remaining lightweight and flexible, allowing for easy movement during outdoor activities.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the fabric
The water-repellent treatment may have worn off; consider using a specialized wash-in reproofing product designed for outdoor synthetic jackets.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Clean any debris or grit from the zip teeth using a soft brush, then gently rub a standard pencil tip over the teeth to act as a dry lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is ready to wear straight out of the package. Because the material is primarily high-quality polyester, it is durable and easy to maintain. To ensure the water-repellent finish remains effective, wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the technical fibers and reduce the water-repellent performance. Always allow the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the insulating padding.
