FAQs
What age group is this jacket designed for?
This specific jacket is sized for toddlers aged 2-3 years (UK sizing).
Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, the jacket has a waterproof rating of up to 10,000mm, making it highly effective in rainy conditions.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
The jacket itself provides protection against wind and rain. For cold weather, it is designed to be layered over warmer clothing like fleeces or sweaters.
How do I wash the jacket?
The jacket is machine washable. Use a mild detergent and wash on a gentle cycle. It's best to air dry rather than tumble dry.
What does 'generously sized' mean?
It means the jacket is cut a little larger than standard sizing to allow for comfortable movement and for wearing additional layers underneath without feeling restrictive.
Is the hood adjustable?
The hood is semi-elasticated, meaning it has elasticated sections to provide a snugger fit around the head without needing drawstrings, ensuring better protection while maintaining safety.
What are the environmental benefits of this jacket?
The jacket is made from recycled fabric, contributing to reduced waste and a more sustainable approach to clothing production.
Troubleshooting
Jacket appears to be leaking.
Ensure the front zip is fully closed and the flap is over it. Check that cuffs and hood are properly fitted. For persistent issues, the waterproof treatment may need reapplication after extended use, though this jacket is designed for robust performance.
Child feels damp inside the jacket.
While the jacket is breathable, high exertion in very humid conditions can still lead to some moisture buildup. Ensure the child is not overdressed underneath. Check that the hood and cuffs are sealed effectively to prevent external moisture entry.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. If resistance persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a wax-based product can help lubricate the zipper.
