FAQs
Is this coat insulated for winter?
This coat is designed as a protective shell. It is windproof and waterproof, but for very cold days, we recommend layering a fleece or sweater underneath.
What does 3,000 mm waterproof mean?
This rating indicates that the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 3,000 mm column of water over a 24-hour period before moisture penetrates the material.
Can I tumble dry the splash coat?
It is generally not recommended to tumble dry this coat, as high heat can damage the welded seams and the waterproof membrane. Air drying is the safest method.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is integrated into the coat design to ensure maximum water protection for the neck and head areas.
How do I choose the right size?
The sizes are based on age groups. For the best fit, check your child's current measurements against our sizing guide, as children grow at different rates.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking through the fabric
The waterproof coating may be wearing off; wash the item with a specialized outdoor gear cleaner and consider re-applying a water-repellent spray.
Zip is sticking or hard to pull
Check for fabric caught in the zipper teeth and gently clear any debris; a light rub with a pencil lead can act as a dry lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Kite Daisy Dot Splash Coat is made from specialized polyester, proper care is essential to maintain its water-repellent qualities. It is recommended to wipe down the outer surface with a damp cloth after light use to remove mud. For deeper cleaning, follow the care label instructions, typically suggesting a gentle machine wash on a cold cycle. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip away the waterproof coating over time. Always air dry the coat naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can degrade the protective seams.
