FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features Isotex 10000 waterproof fabric with taped seams and a durable water-repellent finish, providing excellent protection against rain.

Is the jacket breathable for active kids?

Absolutely. With a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24 hours, it's designed to keep your child comfortable and fresh during active play.

What material is the jacket made from?

The main outer fabric is recycled peached polyester, and it features a 100% polyester taffeta lining for comfort.

How do I care for and wash this jacket?

Specific care instructions are on the garment's label. Generally, wash waterproof jackets on a gentle cycle with a technical wash, avoid fabric softeners, and air dry to preserve performance. Please check the label upon purchase.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, it has a grown-on hood with bartacked cord detailing for integrated head protection from the elements.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the two lower patch pockets feature concealed stud closures to keep small items safe.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is a waterproof and breathable shell, not insulated. For very cold weather, we recommend layering it over warm fleeces or thermal tops.

Can this jacket be tumble dried?

Always refer to the garment's care label for specific drying instructions. Tumble drying waterproof garments on low heat is sometimes possible but can affect coatings; air drying is often recommended to extend the product's life.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem to be fully waterproof or is wetting out.

Ensure all press studs are fastened and the hood is properly adjusted. The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish might need re-application over time. Wash the jacket according to its care label (when available) as dirt can impair DWR performance. If care instructions are unavailable, use a technical wash specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.

Child feels sweaty or clammy inside the jacket.

Despite high breathability, ensure your child is not overdressed underneath. The jacket is a shell, so adjust inner layers based on activity level and external temperature. In very humid conditions, breathability can be reduced.

Press studs are difficult to fasten or unfasten.

Check for any fabric caught in the studs. Apply gentle, firm pressure when fastening. If they remain stiff, repeated use should ease them over time.

Hood keeps falling down or doesn't provide enough coverage.

Adjust the hood's position to sit comfortably on your child's head. The 'grown-on' design is integrated, offering consistent coverage. For best fit, ensure no thick hats are pushing it off.

Care

> Info needed: Specific washing and drying instructions are not provided in the product description. For optimal care and to maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable properties, please refer to the garment's care label upon purchase. Generally, waterproof jackets benefit from gentle washing cycles, mild detergents, and avoiding fabric softeners, which can degrade the DWR finish. Allow to air dry.
