Product Information

Full details

This Under Armour Tech Utility Jacket is designed for active kids who need versatile weather protection. Its key benefit is the UA Storm technology, which repels water without compromising breathability, making it ideal for various conditions. A potential consideration is that it's primarily for light to moderate rain and wind, not heavy downpours. This jacket offers a lightweight, durable, and comfortable fit with 4-way stretch material, a full-zip fastening, hood, and secure zip pockets.

FAQs

What makes the UA Storm technology special?

UA Storm technology is a water-resistant treatment applied to the fabric that repels rain and snow. It keeps you dry without sacrificing the jacket's breathability, ensuring comfort during activity.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

This jacket is designed for light to moderate rain. For extremely heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions, a more robust waterproof jacket might be necessary.

Can adults wear this jacket?

This specific model is marketed for kids. While the Unisex fit might allow some adults to wear it, Under Armour offers similar styles in adult sizing.

How do I maintain the water-repellent feature?

Avoid using fabric softeners and bleach. Wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and tumble dry on low. Reapplying a DWR treatment periodically can help restore its effectiveness.

What does '4-way stretch' mean?

4-way stretch means the fabric can stretch in two directions (lengthwise and widthwise), allowing for a greater range of motion and flexibility during any activity.

Is the jacket warm enough for cold weather?

The jacket is lightweight and designed for weather protection rather than insulation. It can be effectively layered over warmer clothing for colder conditions.

Are there other colors available?

Availability of colors can vary. Please check the product listing for current color options. This guide focuses on the black variant.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not repelling water effectively.

The UA Storm water-repellent finish may have worn off. Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment suitable for synthetic fabrics. Ensure no fabric softeners were used during washing, as they can clog the fabric's pores.

Zipper is stuck.

Gently try to pull the zipper up or down. If it's caught on fabric, carefully try to free the snagged material. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or wax can help lubricate the zipper teeth.

Jacket feels stiff or less comfortable after washing.

Avoid using fabric softeners. Ensure the jacket is washed and dried according to the care label instructions, typically on a cool setting and low heat for drying. Consider a gentle tumble dry to restore some softness.
