Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup and Wearing
- Donning the Jacket: Simply put on the jacket over appropriate layers.
- Adjusting the Hem: Pull the `drawcord` at the bottom hem to tighten the jacket around the waist, preventing cold air from entering. Release the toggle to loosen.
- Securing Cuffs: Use the `adjustable cuffs` to create a snug fit around your child's wrists. This helps block out cold and keeps sleeves from riding up during activity.
Compatibility
This parka jacket is designed for boys in the kids and toddler age groups, suitable for various outdoor activities. It is compatible with standard layering systems, allowing for additional thermal base or mid-layers underneath based on weather conditions. It is made from `Polyester` material.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your waterproof parka:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent specifically designed for waterproof garments, if available. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or harsh detergents as these can damage the waterproof coating.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the jacket to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Storage: Store in a dry, cool place. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the waterproof coating may lose its effectiveness. Consider using a technical wash-in or spray-on re-proofing product to restore water repellency, following the product's instructions. Info needed: Specific re-proofing recommendations from manufacturer.
