Troubleshooting

Jacket seems to leak in heavy rain.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and any waterproof coatings are intact. For older jackets, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need reapplication.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

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.

Child feels cold while wearing the jacket.

The jacket is designed for rain and wind protection, not heavy insulation. Layering with a fleece or warm sweater underneath will provide additional warmth in colder temperatures.
