FAQs
Are these dungarees lined?
No, these dungarees are unlined, making them lightweight and flexible for layering over other clothing.
What is the best way to layer these dungarees for cold weather?
For colder weather, layer a warm base layer (like thermal leggings and long-sleeved top) and a fleece jumper underneath the dungarees.
How do I clean mud or dirt off?
You can wipe away light dirt with a damp cloth. For heavier soiling, machine wash according to the care instructions.
What age group are these dungarees suitable for?
This specific product is listed for children aged 3-4 years, but they are available in a range of sizes for toddlers and older children.
How effective are the reflective details?
The reflective details are designed to enhance visibility in low light conditions, such as dusk or overcast days, making children more easily seen by others.
Can these be worn for activities other than playing outside?
While designed for outdoor play, their waterproof and flexible nature could be suitable for messy indoor activities as well, protecting clothing underneath.
What does 'taped seams' mean?
Taped seams mean that waterproof tape has been applied over the stitching lines on the inside of the garment, preventing water from leaking through the needle holes.
Troubleshooting
Dungarees seem too large or baggy.
Adjust the shoulder straps to their shortest setting and ensure the underfoot stirrups are securely fastened under the footwear.
Water seeping through seams.
Check if the taped seams are intact. If damaged, the waterproofing may be compromised. Ensure the garment has been washed and dried according to instructions, as incorrect washing can affect performance.
Buckles are difficult to fasten.
Ensure the buckle and strap ends are clean and free from debris. Practice fastening and unfastening can help children gain dexterity.
Reduced water repellency after washing.
Avoid using fabric softener and tumble dry on a low heat to help reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment if performance does not improve.
