FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof or just water repellent?

The jacket is described as water repellent, meaning it is designed to shed light rain and moisture effectively. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket might offer more protection.

How do I clean the jacket?

The jacket can be machine washed at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Do not iron.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

The jacket is lightweight and designed primarily for rain protection. For colder weather, it is recommended to wear insulating layers underneath.

What does 'packaway' mean?

Packaway means the jacket is designed to be easily folded and stored into a small, compact size, making it convenient to carry in a bag for unexpected weather.

What sizes are available?

This specific listing is for size 5-6 years. Other sizes are available for children, indicated by different product listings and sizing charts.

How durable is the material?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyamide, which is known for its durability and lightweight properties, suitable for active children.

Does the hood have an adjustment cord?

The jacket features a grown-on hood with an elasticated edge for a snug fit, rather than separate adjustment cords.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer water repellent.

The water-repellent finish may have worn off over time. Re-apply a suitable water-repellent treatment as per the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Jacket feels damp inside after wear.

This could be due to high humidity or the jacket reaching its breathability limit during intense activity. Ensure the jacket is properly ventilated if possible and consider if the activity level exceeds the jacket's intended use for heavy rain.

Seams appear to be leaking.

Check if the taped seams are intact. If there is visible damage to the tape, the jacket's waterproof integrity may be compromised.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This jacket requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed for children. The specific size 5-6 years is indicated, and it is compatible with various children's outdoor clothing. It is suitable for both boys and girls, as indicated by its unisex design in some variants, and black and powder lilac colors in this description.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's water-repellent properties and overall condition:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, as these can damage the fabric's performance.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron. If creases are present after washing, a low tumble dry setting should help.
  4. Re-proofing: For continued water repellency, consider using a re-proofer spray or wash-in product suitable for synthetic fabrics after several washes. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
