FAQs
Are these dungarees lined?
No, these dungarees are unlined, making them ideal for layering over other clothing to adjust warmth based on the weather.
What age range are these dungarees for?
This specific product is sized for children aged 5-6 years. They are available in a wide range of sizes, from 12-18 months up to 11-12 years.
Can I put these dungarees in the washing machine?
Yes, they are machine washable. It is recommended to wash them on a gentle cycle at a low temperature (30-40°C) and avoid fabric softeners.
How do I ensure my child stays warm in these dungarees?
The dungarees are waterproof and windproof but unlined. For warmth, layer appropriate clothing underneath, such as fleece trousers, leggings, or a thermal base layer, depending on the temperature.
Are the reflective details durable?
The reflective details are designed to withstand normal wear and washing. For maximum longevity, follow the care instructions carefully, particularly regarding washing temperature and avoiding tumble drying.
What is the material of the dungarees?
The dungarees are made from soft PU-coated polyester, with taped seams for full waterproofing. They are also made from recycled materials.
What if the stirrups are too long or too short?
The underfoot stirrups are adjustable. You can extend or shorten them to best fit your child's leg length and footwear to prevent the dungarees from riding up.
Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric
Ensure the dungarees are not worn out or damaged. Check that the taped seams are intact. Consider re-waterproofing if the material's performance has diminished significantly over time, although this is rarely necessary with proper care.
Dungarees feel tight over clothing
These dungarees are designed to be spacious for layering. If they feel too restrictive, ensure you are not layering with excessively bulky items underneath. The design prioritizes flexibility over a very snug fit.
Buckles are difficult to fasten
Ensure the buckles are properly aligned. If they are stiff, they may need a few uses to loosen up. Check for any debris caught in the buckle mechanism.
Legs ride up during activity
Adjust the underfoot stirrups to be taut enough to hold the leg hem down. Ensure the stirrups are correctly positioned under the footwear.
