FAQs

What does 'ECONYL® regenerated yarns' mean?

It means the nylon fabric is made from recycled materials, such as discarded fishing nets and industrial plastic, which are processed to create high-quality nylon yarn, making the jacket more sustainable.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket features an anti-drop finish, which provides water resistance against light rain and snow. For heavy downpours, additional waterproof gear might be necessary.

How do I choose the right size for my child?

Refer to the Stone Island size chart, which typically provides measurements for chest, waist, and height to help you select the most appropriate size. For this jacket, size UK 10 is indicated for a 10-year-old.

What is the benefit of RDS certification?

RDS (Responsible Down Standard) certification ensures that the down used in the jacket comes from animals that have been treated ethically and not subjected to unnecessary harm, such as live-plucking or force-feeding.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. It is recommended to wash it inside out with zippers closed and to tumble dry on low heat.

What causes the iridescent look of the fabric?

The Nylon Metal fabric has a unique structure and finish that creates an iridescent effect, reflecting light differently from various angles, giving it a distinctive metallic sheen.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Yes, the product description mentions a classic hood, designed to provide extra protection from the elements.

Troubleshooting

Jacket loses loft after washing

Ensure the jacket is completely dry and tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to help break up clumps and restore loft.

Color seems to fade unevenly

This can be a characteristic of the garment-dyeing process. To minimize further fading, wash inside out in cold water and avoid prolonged sun exposure.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and apply a graphite pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper.

Water repellency is reduced

The anti-drop finish may diminish over time. Consider applying a water-repellent treatment suitable for technical outerwear after washing and drying, following product instructions.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Wash inside out with zippers closed.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent specifically for technical fabrics or down. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls or dryer balls to help re-fluff the down. Remove promptly after drying.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting, preferably inside out. Avoid direct heat on prints or embellishments.
  • Special Note: Due to the garment-dyed nature and anti-drop finish, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent color fading and maintain the fabric's properties. Professional dry cleaning is also an option if care labels permit.
