FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain or splashes. For heavy or prolonged rain, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
What age group is the printed name label for?
The printed name label is included for children up to age 8.
Can I use fabric softener when washing this jacket?
No, fabric softener should be avoided as it can impair the jacket's water-repellent properties and the performance of the synthetic insulation.
How do I ensure the jacket stays warm?
Ensure the jacket is washed and dried correctly according to the care instructions. The feather-free synthetic down provides warmth, and maintaining its loft is key. Avoid over-drying.
Is this jacket machine washable?
Yes, the jacket is machine washable. Please refer to the care label for specific temperature and cycle recommendations, typically a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius.
What is the main advantage of the 'feather-free' insulation?
The feather-free insulation provides excellent warmth and loft similar to natural down but is hypoallergenic and performs better when damp.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses water repellency
Wash the jacket with a technical fabric wash and consider applying a water-repellent finish spray suitable for synthetic materials. Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing.
Jacket feels less warm after washing
Ensure the synthetic insulation is properly fluffed up. Tumble drying on a low heat with clean tennis balls can help redistribute the insulation. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach.
Zip is stiff or difficult to use
Check for any fabric caught in the zip. Gently try to move the zip up and down. Lubricate the zip teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zip lubricant if necessary.
