FAQs
Is this jacket machine washable?

Can my child wear this in heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, but it is not waterproof and should not be relied upon in heavy or prolonged downpours.
What does 'Hybrid' mean in the product name?
It refers to the combination of insulated panels for warmth and stretch fabric panels for better movement.

Yes, it is equipped with two zipped lower pockets for secure storage.
Is the jacket suitable for night-time use?

Can I tumble dry the jacket?

Troubleshooting
Water-repellent finish stops working
Reactivate or refresh the durable water-repellent (DWR) coating using a specialized wash-in or spray-on garment treatment.
Jacket feels less warm over time
Ensure the garment is clean. Accumulated dirt and oils can compress the loft of the insulation; washing properly will restore its insulating properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the water-repellent finish and the integrity of the synthetic insulation, machine wash the jacket on a cool, gentle cycle. It is recommended to zip up all pockets before washing. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners, as these can clog the technical fibers and degrade the water-repellent treatment. Air drying is the safest method to prevent the insulation from clumping; if you must tumble dry, use the lowest heat setting with dryer balls to help fluff the insulation. The jacket is unisex and designed to fit comfortably over standard school uniforms or casual base layers.
