FAQs

What age group is this suit for?

This specific size is for toddlers aged 3-4 years. The Puddleflex range is available for ages from 6-12 months up to 5-6 years.

How waterproof is this suit?

The suit offers a high level of waterproofing, rated up to 10,000mm, making it suitable for heavy downpours and prolonged wet conditions.

Is the hood removable?

Yes, the hood is detachable, offering flexibility based on weather conditions and for easier cleaning.

What are the materials used?

The suit is made using recycled materials, featuring a waterproof outer shell and a soft polar fleece lining with 160gsm insulation.

Are there any special features for very young children?

Yes, for the smaller sizes (6-12 months), integrated fold-over mitts are included to keep little hands warm and protected.

How should I clean the suit?

Machine wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle with a technical wash or non-biological liquid detergent. Do not tumble dry; hang to air dry. Avoid fabric conditioners.

How can I ensure the suit remains waterproof?

Periodically re-waterproof the suit using a suitable spray or wash-in treatment, following the product instructions. Ensure the DWR treatment on the outer fabric is maintained.

Troubleshooting

Suit is leaking or not fully waterproof.

Ensure all zips are fully closed and the storm flap is secured. Check for any damage to the fabric or seams. Consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the outer fabric.

Child feels cold despite wearing the suit.

Verify that the suit is the correct size and not too tight, which can restrict insulation. Ensure appropriate base layers are worn underneath for colder temperatures. Check that the hood and cuffs are sealed.

Zip is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zip teeth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zip teeth. Ensure the storm flap is not caught in the zip.

Fleece lining feels matted after washing.

Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the fleece. Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and appropriate detergent. Gently brush the fleece after air drying if needed.
