FAQs

Is the hood completely removable, or just the fur trim?

Only the fur trim is detachable from the hood. The hood itself is integrated into the jacket for consistent protection.

How warm is this jacket? Can it be worn in winter?

The partial Sherpa fleece lining provides good warmth, making it suitable for cooler autumn and spring days. For winter, it can be worn with appropriate layering (e.g., a fleece or thermal top underneath) to provide sufficient warmth in mild winter conditions.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester, which contributes to its waterproof properties and durability.

How do I ensure the waterproofing lasts?

To maintain waterproofing, avoid fabric softeners when washing. Periodically re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for waterproof garments, especially if you notice water no longer beads up on the surface.

Can this jacket be tumble dried?

No, tumble drying is not recommended. It can damage the waterproof membrane and the fur trim. Always air dry the jacket and fur trim thoroughly.

Does it have multiple pockets?

This specific model features one contrast zip pocket, which is suitable for securely holding small items.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem waterproof anymore.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating might need refreshing. Wash the jacket following care instructions, then apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof outerwear. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-treating.

Zipper is stiff or gets stuck.

Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like zipper wax or a graphite pencil) to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down to distribute the lubricant. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Fur trim looks matted or clumpy.

If the fur trim is detachable, remove it. Gently hand wash with a mild soap and cold water, then carefully comb through the fur with your fingers or a wide-toothed comb while it's still damp. Lay flat to air dry completely, fluffing occasionally.

Jacket smells musty after storage.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storage. If it has a smell, machine wash it according to care instructions, using a specialized outerwear cleaner if available, and air dry thoroughly in a well-ventilated area. Avoid storing in damp conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions

The jacket is ready to wear straight out of its packaging. If the fur trim is not already attached, simply use the designated fastenings (e.g., small buttons or loops) on the hood to secure it.

Compatibility

This specific jacket is designed for boys aged 5-6 (UK sizing). Always ensure accurate measurements for chest, waist, and arm length to choose the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. It is compatible with various layering options, from light t-shirts to fleeces, depending on the prevailing weather conditions.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and performance of your waterproof jacket:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Close all zips and fastenings before washing. It is important to not use fabric softener, as it can impair the waterproof coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry thoroughly away from direct heat. Tumble drying is not recommended as it can damage the waterproof membrane and fur trim.
  3. Fur Trim Care: If the fur trim is detachable, remove it before washing the main jacket. Hand wash the fur trim separately with mild soap and cold water, then air dry flat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry the fur trim.
  4. Waterproofing Maintenance: Over time, the factory-applied Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need re-treating. Use a suitable DWR spray or wash-in product as per the product's instructions, typically after several washes, to restore water repellency.
  5. Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew or damage to the waterproof coating.
