FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it resists light rain, but it is not fully waterproof or seam-sealed for heavy storms.

Can this be washed in a washing machine?

Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle. We recommend zipping it up before washing.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, the jacket features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the collar.

Is the jacket bulky?

No, the Thermo-Guard insulation is designed to be lightweight and packable while still providing warmth.

What age group is this jacket for?

This specific variant is sized for children aged 5-6, though other sizes are available for different age groups.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the fabric

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need refreshing; wash the garment and apply a specialized re-proofing spray.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Check for fabric caught in the teeth and gently clean any dirt or debris from the zipper track using a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is ready to wear immediately out of the package. It is designed to be highly compatible with standard school uniforms or casual base layers. To maintain the jacket's performance, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-repellent finish.
  2. Drying: Air dry the jacket whenever possible. Avoid excessive heat, as high-temperature tumble drying can damage the synthetic insulation.
  3. Maintenance: If water no longer beads off the fabric, consider applying a garment-safe re-proofing spray after washing to restore the water-repellent properties.
