Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
There is no complex setup required. Simply have your child put on the jacket over their clothing as needed for outdoor protection.
Compatibility
This jacket is designed as an outer shell, making it highly compatible with various layers underneath. For optimal warmth in colder weather, pair it with:
- Base layers: Thermal tops or t-shirts for moisture-wicking.
- Mid-layers: Fleeces or sweaters for insulation.
Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain the jacket's waterproof performance and extend its lifespan. Always refer to the specific care label inside the jacket for detailed instructions.
- Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C or 40°C) using a gentle cycle. Use a technical wash designed for waterproof garments, as regular detergents can impair waterproofing.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket naturally. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the waterproof coating.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Bleaching/Dry Cleaning: Do not bleach or dry clean.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, consider re-proofing the jacket with a suitable DWR treatment spray or wash-in product.
