FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light showers and drizzle. For prolonged or heavy rain, additional waterproof outerwear may be necessary.
How do I clean the jacket to maintain its water repellency?
Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent, avoiding bleach and fabric softener. After washing and drying, it is recommended to re-apply a DWR finish to restore its water-repellent properties.
What does 'Grown On Hood' mean?
'Grown On Hood' refers to a hood that is permanently attached to the main body of the jacket, rather than being detachable.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
While the jacket offers some insulation through its quilted design, it is primarily a lightweight layer. For very cold conditions, layering with warmer garments underneath is recommended.
What are the dimensions of the pockets?
The product details do not specify exact pocket dimensions, but they are designed to hold small personal items securely.
Is the jacket made entirely from recycled materials?
The product description states it is 'Made from Recycled Materials', indicating that at least a significant portion, if not all, of the material content is recycled.
What is the denier of the fabric?
The fabric has a denier of 20D, which signifies a lightweight and fine thread construction.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need reapplication. Follow the instructions on a suitable DWR re-waterproofing product, typically applied after washing and drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to close.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels less insulated than expected.
This jacket is designed for lightweight protection. For colder weather, consider layering additional warm clothing underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
This jacket requires no assembly and is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with standard children's clothing sizes. To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Wash similar colours together. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, as these can damage the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat.
- Re-Waterproofing: For best results, re-apply a water-repellent finish after washing according to product instructions (e.g., using a spray-on or wash-in treatment). This helps to restore the DWR finish's effectiveness.
