FAQs

What makes this jacket waterproof?

The jacket is made from ripstop nylon with a 10000 mm water column and features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment and thermo-glued seams to prevent water penetration.

How do I fold the jacket into its pocket?

Turn the jacket inside out and carefully fold it down until it fits into one of the front pockets. The pocket is designed to contain the entire folded jacket, with an elasticated belt to secure it further.

Is the jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This windbreaker is designed primarily for protection against wind and rain. It offers minimal insulation and is best suited for mild to cool weather or as an outer layer over warmer clothing in colder conditions.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash it gently at 30°C. However, it is crucial to avoid bleach, tumble drying, and ironing, and to wash it separately.

What does 'at least 50% recycled polyamide' mean?

It means that over half of the nylon material used in the jacket is made from recycled sources, which helps to conserve resources and reduce waste.

What is the breathability rating?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 10000 g/m²/24h, which indicates good performance in allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping the wearer comfortable.

What sizes are available for this specific green windbreaker?

This particular listing is for size 6 Y (Years).

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

Ensure the jacket is washed according to the care instructions (gentle 30°C wash, no fabric softener). Reapplying a DWR treatment may be necessary if performance does not improve.

Zipper is difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil can sometimes help lubricate the teeth.

Jacket feels slightly stiff after washing.

Avoid tumble drying and ironing, as these can damage the fabric's properties. Air dry away from direct heat and sunlight. The fabric should regain its natural feel after a short period.
