Lyle & Scott Softshell Hooded Jacket - Blue - 7-8

No, this jacket features a water-resistant softshell fabric, meaning it will repel light rain and splashes. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

This jacket is ideal for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, and cool summer days. It provides lightweight warmth and protection against wind and light rain, making it perfect for active days outdoors when the weather is unpredictable.

While it offers some warmth, this jacket is not designed for harsh winter conditions or very cold temperatures. For winter, it would best serve as a layering piece under a heavier, insulated coat, or for mild winter days.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors, using a mild detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron. Follow these steps to maintain the fabric's integrity and water resistance.

Yes, it features an adjustable hood for personalized protection. The ribbed cuffs and hem also provide a snug, comfortable fit.

The jacket is made from durable polyester, which provides its weather-resistant and stretchy properties.

Yes, the jacket includes a zipped left sleeve pocket and zipped side pockets, ensuring that your child's belongings are kept secure during activity.

Ensure you are washing the jacket according to the care instructions, avoiding harsh detergents or fabric softeners that can degrade the water-resistant treatment. If the issue persists, consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for outdoor clothing after washing to revitalize its water-shedding properties.

Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. If it's still stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like a graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper wax) to the teeth, then work the zipper repeatedly to distribute it.

This jacket provides lightweight warmth and is water-resistant, not fully insulating for extreme cold nor fully breathable for intense heat. Adjust the layers worn underneath based on the temperature. For cooler days, add a fleece or thermal layer; for warmer days, wear a light t-shirt. The full zip allows for quick ventilation.
