Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
The jacket provides waterproof and windproof protection. For cold weather, layering appropriate thermal clothing underneath is recommended.

Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
Ensure the DWR finish is intact. If it has worn off, apply a suitable re-proofer according to the manufacturer's instructions. Check that all seams are intact and taped.
Child feels clammy or too warm
While the jacket is breathable, prolonged strenuous activity can still lead to warmth. Ensure appropriate layering underneath. The breathability rating is 15,000 g/m²/24 hours, which is good, but effectiveness can depend on external humidity and activity level.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use
Clean the zipper area with a damp cloth and allow it to dry. Apply a small amount of wax or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket has an odor
Follow the washing instructions carefully, using a mild detergent. Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dried after washing and storage.
