FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?

This jacket is designed with goose-down padding for excellent warmth, making it ideal for cool to mild weather. For extreme cold, layering may be necessary.

How do I know which size to order?

It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size chart, available on the product page or manufacturer's website, to find the best fit for your child.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. Always check the care label for specific instructions.

What does 'packable' mean for this jacket?

Packable means the jacket can be easily compressed and folded into a small size, often into its own pocket or an included dust bag, making it very convenient for travel.

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

The jacket is made with technical fabric that offers water resistance, meaning it can repel light rain. However, it is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

To maintain the loft of the down filling, it's best to store the jacket loosely in a breathable garment bag or on a hanger. Avoid long-term storage while compressed.

What is the material of the padding?

The jacket is padded with goose-down, which provides excellent insulation and a high warmth-to-weight ratio.

Troubleshooting

Jacket loses loft after washing

Place the jacket in a tumble dryer on low heat with clean tennis balls. The movement helps to break up clumps of down and restore its fluffy volume.

Water repellency seems reduced

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need refreshing. Consider a spray-on DWR treatment designed for technical outerwear after cleaning.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth of the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.

Minor stains on the fabric

Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or scrubbing, which can damage the fabric or down.

  • Highly portable and convenient for travel.
  • Durable and water-resistant material for everyday wear.
  • Stylish design with signature EA7 branding.

Cons

  • Not fully waterproof; may not withstand heavy rain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no setup upon arrival; it is ready to wear. It is compatible with most children's outerwear needs for cool to mild weather.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. It is recommended to wash the jacket inside out.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls. The tennis balls help to redistribute the down filling and restore the jacket's loft.
  3. Storage: Store the jacket loosely when not in its dust bag to allow the down to breathe. Avoid storing it compressed for extended periods.
  4. Cleaning Pockets: Ensure pockets are zipped closed before washing to prevent items from getting lost or damaging the fabric.
