FAQs

What does 'Isotex 20000' mean?

Isotex 20000 refers to the waterproof and breathable rating of the fabric. '20000' indicates that the fabric can withstand a water column of 20,000mm and has a breathability rating of 20,000 g/m²/24 hours, meaning it's highly waterproof and breathable.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild liquid detergent. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low setting. Avoid using powder detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners.

Is the hood removable?

No, the hood is a grown-on technical hood and is not designed to be removed.

Does the jacket have a name label?

Yes, it includes a printed name label, but this is only provided for sizes up to age 8.

How can I ensure the jacket remains waterproof over time?

Regular washing with appropriate detergent and reactivating the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish using a specific outdoor fabric re-proofer after washing will help maintain its waterproof capabilities.

What are the pocket configurations?

The jacket features two zipped lower pockets and two zipped chest pockets for secure storage.

What age group is this jacket intended for?

This jacket is designed for children, specifically indicated for ages 7 and above, though sizing varies by UK children's sizes.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, then apply a specific outdoor fabric re-proofer and tumble dry on a low heat to reactivate the DWR treatment.

Child feels damp inside despite the jacket being waterproof

This could be due to reduced breathability. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and residue can clog the fabric's pores. Check for any blockages in the lining. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability may be compromised.

Zips are stiff or difficult to use

Gently try to move the zip up and down. Clean any debris around the zip teeth. You can use a graphite pencil or a specialized zip lubricant to help it glide more smoothly.
