Product Information
Full details
The Nike Tempo Repel Running Jacket is an ideal choice for active kids who refuse to let wet weather stop their outdoor play or training sessions. Crafted from water-repellent polyester, it provides a crucial shield against light rain while ensuring breathability through a clever vented back design. While it excels at moisture protection, it is designed primarily for light to moderate wet conditions rather than heavy, prolonged downpours.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket completely waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it is designed to shed light rain and moisture, but it is not intended to be fully waterproof in heavy, prolonged downpours.
How should I wash this jacket?
Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Avoid fabric softeners to maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish.
Can my child wear this in cold weather?
This jacket works well as a wind-breaking outer layer, but it does not have internal insulation. It is best used as part of a layering system during colder months.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is constructed from durable, lightweight polyester, which is chosen for its moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties.
Does the hood stay up during activity?
The hood is designed for a standard fit to provide coverage, though it does not feature an adjustable drawstring, so it is best suited for light winds.
Is the sizing true to size?
Yes, Nike children's apparel generally runs true to size, but consider the layers your child will wear underneath when choosing between sizes.
Troubleshooting
Water starts soaking through the fabric
The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. Ensure you are not using heavy fabric softeners during wash cycles, which can strip the coating.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Ensure no fabric is caught in the track. If the zipper remains stiff, you can lightly rub the teeth with a graphite pencil to act as a dry lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Nike Tempo Repel jacket is simple. Because it is machine washable, routine maintenance is straightforward: wash in cold water with similar colors and tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry. To maintain the water-repellent integrity of the fabric, avoid using harsh fabric softeners. The jacket is designed to fit comfortably over standard school uniforms or base-layer sportswear, making it a highly compatible addition to any child's wardrobe. Ensure you choose the size that accommodates the layers your child typically wears underneath for the best fit.
