Nike Storm FIT Junior Park 20 Full Length Sideline Jacket - Black

The jacket features a water-repellent finish which helps keep you dry when it starts to rain. It's designed to shed light rain and moisture, but it is not described as fully waterproof for prolonged heavy downpours.

Synthetic fill refers to insulation made from artificial fibers, typically polyester. It's designed to mimic the warmth of down but often performs better in wet conditions and is more affordable. It provides lightweight warmth.

Yes, while it's optimized for sideline and sports use, its strong weather protection (windproof, water-repellent, warm) makes it suitable for general outdoor wear, commuting to school, or any activity in cold and wet weather.

The product description does not explicitly mention a hood. Based on the 'elongated, full-zip design covers you from the elements' and the 'full length' description, it focuses on body coverage, but information about a hood is not provided.

The jacket has a loose, roomy fit designed for layering. It's available in children's UK sizes like 7-8 and 9-10. For best fit, refer to Nike's official size chart for junior apparel. If your child is between sizes, consider if you prefer more room for layering or a slightly closer fit.

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester for both its outer shell and synthetic fill insulation, providing durability, water repellency, and warmth.

Ensure the jacket is cleaned regularly according to care instructions, as dirt and oils can hinder water repellency. Info needed: Consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-treatment spray after washing if the effect significantly fades over time.

While designed for a roomy fit, check if the inner layers are excessively thick. Opt for thinner, performance-oriented layers underneath to maximize warmth without adding unnecessary bulk. Ensure the jacket size is appropriate for the wearer.
