This coat offers excellent protection against wind and rain, ensuring children stay dry and comfortable during puddle jumping or school commutes, though its lightweight design makes it best suited for layering in colder climates rather than as a heavy-duty winter parka.

FAQs
Is this coat warm enough for winter?
It is windproof and waterproof, making it a great outer shell, but it lacks thick insulation. We recommend layering with a warm fleece or knit sweater underneath for winter wear.
What does 3,000 mm waterproof rating mean?
This rating indicates the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 3,000 mm column of water over a 24-hour period before moisture seeps through, making it perfect for light to moderate rain.
Can I tumble dry the coat?
It is best to air dry the garment to protect the waterproof seams and fabric integrity.
What size is this product?
This specific item is designed for children aged 7-8 years.
Is the fabric safe for children?
Yes, the coat is made from OEKO-TEX approved fabric, which means it has been tested to be free from harmful substances.
Troubleshooting
Water seems to be soaking through after extended wear
The waterproof coating may need refreshing; ensure you are not using detergents that contain fabric softeners, as these strip the protective layer.
Zip is sticking or hard to pull
Check for debris in the teeth of the zipper and ensure no fabric is caught in the guard. Gently clean with a damp cloth if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the waterproof coating, always machine wash the garment inside out at 30°C. Avoid using strong bleach or fabric softeners, as these can break down the waterproof membrane. The coat is designed for children aged 7-8 and features a convenient zip-through mechanism with a durable kite zip pull that is easy for small hands to operate. Store the coat in a dry place, and avoid leaving it bundled up while wet to prevent mold or odors from developing.
