FAQs

Is this Under Armour jacket fully waterproof?

No, this jacket is water-repellent, meaning it effectively sheds light rain and drizzle, but it is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours. For prolonged or heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket would be more suitable.

What age group is this specific jacket size suitable for?

This particular variant of the Under Armour Windbreaker Jacket is sized for Juniors, specifically in the 7-8 age range.

Does this windbreaker have a hood?

Based on the product description, this Under Armour Windbreaker Jacket does not feature a hood.

Can this jacket be worn in winter?

As a windbreaker, it's designed to block wind and offer light rain protection. It can be worn in cooler winter weather as a layering piece, but it does not provide significant insulation on its own for very cold temperatures. You would need to layer it over warmer clothing.

What material is the jacket made from?

Both the shell and the lining of the Under Armour Windbreaker Jacket are made from 100% polyester, offering durability and ease of care.

Are there any internal pockets in this jacket?

The product description mentions side pockets for storing essentials. There is no mention of internal pockets.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

To maintain its shape and fabric quality, store the jacket by hanging it in a closet or folding it neatly. Avoid prolonged compression or storing it in damp conditions.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer repels water effectively.

Ensure the jacket is washed according to the care label, avoiding fabric softeners. Over time, the water-repellent treatment may diminish; specialized wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) products designed for outerwear can be used to restore performance if desired, though consult the product label or manufacturer's website first.

Jacket feels stiff or crinkled after washing.

This can occur if the jacket is over-dried or exposed to high heat. Ensure you tumble dry on a very low setting or, ideally, air dry the jacket. Avoid wringing or twisting the jacket excessively when wet. Gentle handling during washing and drying will help maintain its original feel.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric isn't caught in the zipper teeth. If the zipper is still stiff, try lubricating it with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant, gently running it along the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.
