FAQs

Is this coat suitable for heavy winter snow?

This is a splash coat designed for rain and wind; it is not heavily insulated for extreme freezing winter conditions.

What does OEKO-TEX approved mean?

It means the fabric has been tested for harmful substances and is certified as safe for direct contact with children's skin.

Can I iron this coat?

No, ironing is not recommended as the synthetic materials used for waterproofing can melt or degrade under high heat.

Does the coat come in larger sizes?

Yes, different variants are available in sizes up to 9-10 years.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is permanently attached to ensure a continuous seal against wind and rain.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the fabric

The waterproof coating may have worn off due to frequent washing. Avoid fabric softeners and ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle.

Zip feeling stiff or catching

Check for fabric debris or mud caught in the zip track. Clean gently with a soft brush and ensure no internal lining is trapped in the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This coat is designed for everyday wear. To keep the waterproof functionality intact, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Turn the garment inside out before washing to protect the outer surface. Use a gentle machine wash cycle at 30 degrees Celsius.
  2. Detergents: Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the waterproof coating.
  3. Drying: Air dry the coat naturally. Do not tumble dry, as the heat can compromise the integrity of the welded seams and the waterproof membrane.
  4. Storage: Ensure the coat is completely dry before storing it in a wardrobe to prevent mold or mildew growth.
