FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides lightweight warmth with synthetic down insulation, making it ideal for chilly days. For extremely cold temperatures, layering with additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.

How does the water-repellent finish work?

The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish causes water to bead up and roll off the fabric surface, helping to keep the wearer dry in light rain or showers. It is not a substitute for a fully waterproof jacket.

What age group is this jacket designed for?

This jacket is designed for kids, specifically young girls, with available sizes typically ranging from younger children's sizes upwards.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with similar colours and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

How should I dry the jacket to maintain its insulation?

It is best to tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting, ideally with clean tennis balls. This helps to redistribute and re-fluff the synthetic insulation.

Are there other patterns or colours available?

Yes, this jacket is part of the Orla Kiely collection and is available in various iconic prints and potentially different base colours, depending on the specific product listing.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from Polyester, featuring synthetic down insulation.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not drying properly after washing

Ensure the jacket is not over-compacted in the washing machine. Use a low heat tumble dry setting, and consider adding clean tennis balls to help fluff the insulation. Repeat the drying cycle if necessary.

Water-repellent finish seems less effective

The water-repellent finish can diminish over time. Consider using a specialized fabric re-proofer spray suitable for synthetic outerwear after washing and drying to restore its performance. Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners.

Jacket appears to have lost some loft/puffiness

This can happen after washing and drying. Use a low heat tumble dry setting with clean tennis balls to help re-fluff the synthetic insulation. Avoid high heat which can damage the filling.
