FAQs
What does 'water-repellent' mean for this jacket?
Water-repellent means the fabric is treated to resist water penetration, causing water to bead up and roll off. It's suitable for light rain or drizzle but not for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours.
What age range is the Size XS suitable for?
Size XS is designed for kids aged 7-8 years.
Is this jacket warm enough for winter?
This jacket is lightweight and designed for active use. It offers protection from wind and light moisture but does not provide significant insulation for cold winter weather. Layering may be necessary in cooler temperatures.
How do I wash the Nike Miler Jacket?
The jacket is machine washable. It's recommended to wash in cold water with a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
Are the reflective details durable?
The reflective details are designed for durability with proper care. Avoid high heat and ironing directly on them to maintain their effectiveness.
Does the hood offer full protection in windy conditions?
The hood provides coverage for the head and can help block some wind. For very strong winds, its effectiveness may be limited, but it offers additional protection compared to not wearing one.
What is the UVA/UVB protection factor?
The jacket provides UVA/UVB protection in the areas it covers, helping to shield the skin from harmful sun rays. Specific UPF ratings are not provided.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced
Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash according to care instructions and avoid fabric softeners, which can impede water repellency. Consider a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-proofer if performance significantly declines over time.
Reflective details are peeling or damaged
Avoid high heat when drying and do not iron directly on the reflective elements. Gentle washing and air drying are recommended to preserve these features.
Jacket feels damp inside after light rain
While water-repellent, the jacket is not fully waterproof. For heavier rain, a more robust waterproof jacket may be needed. Ensure the hood is properly secured to cover the head.
