FAQs

What age range is this jacket suitable for?

This jacket is designed for children and is available in various sizes corresponding to age groups. Please check the specific size chart provided for accurate measurements, as children's sizing can vary.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket offers water-repellent protection and taped seams, making it suitable for light to moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a jacket with higher hydrostatic head ratings might be more appropriate.

How do I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Do not iron. Tumble dry on a low heat or hang to dry.

What does 'packaway' mean?

Packaway means the jacket is designed to be easily folded and packed into a small space, such as a bag or pocket, making it convenient to carry when not in use.

What is the breathability rating?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs, indicating its ability to allow water vapor to pass through, helping to keep the wearer comfortable.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

No, it is not recommended to use fabric softener. Fabric softeners can clog the pores of the waterproof and breathable membrane, reducing the jacket's performance.

Does the hood offer adjustable tightening?

The hood is described as 'grown on' with 'elasticated detailing', which provides a secure fit without separate drawcords.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer water-repellent

The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and apply a suitable reproofing spray or wash-in treatment for waterproof clothing. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before applying any treatment.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. You can then apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a specialized zipper lubricant) to the teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This can happen if the jacket is not breathable enough for the activity level or if the inner layer is saturated. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt can clog the pores. For high-exertion activities, consider layering with moisture-wicking base layers.

Seams appear to be leaking

Check if the taped seams are intact. If the tape is peeling or damaged, the waterproofing may be compromised. Minor wear can sometimes be addressed with seam sealer, but significant damage may require replacement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides effective waterproof and breathable protection.
  • Very lightweight and easy to pack for travel or storage.
  • Comfortable for active wear due to moisture-wicking properties.

  • Suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities.

Cons

  • Sizing can be specific, requiring careful measurement.
  • Primarily designed for younger children, check age/size guides.
  • While water-repellent, extreme downpours might require a more robust option.
  • Style is plain, offering less aesthetic variety.
  • Polyamide material may not be as durable as heavier fabrics for rough play.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
