Product Information
Full details
The Dare 2b Shredder II Ski Jacket is a high-performance winter garment designed for active children who need reliable protection during long days on the slopes. Built with ARED 35/35K waterproof and breathable fabric, this jacket offers professional-grade weather resistance while keeping kids warm with recycled high-loft insulation; however, it is specifically optimized for active skiing, meaning it may feel bulkier than standard casual school jackets.

FAQs
Is the hood removable?

What does 35K breathability mean?
It means the fabric is highly efficient at allowing perspiration vapor to escape, keeping the child dry even during high-intensity activity.
Can this be machine washed?
Yes, it can be machine washed at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Always follow the specific care label attached to the garment.
Does it have a ski pass pocket?
Yes, it features a dedicated ski pass pocket to allow for easy access at lift scanners.
Is the insulation made from sustainable materials?
Yes, the jacket uses high-warmth padding made from recycled materials.
Are the seams taped?
Yes, the jacket features fully taped seams to ensure complete protection from water penetration.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to soak into the fabric surface
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry on low or apply a DWR re-proofing spray to restore water beading.
Moisture inside the jacket after active use
Check that base layers are moisture-wicking and not cotton. High levels of exertion may require unzipping the jacket slightly to allow excess heat to vent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the waterproof coating, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash the jacket on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using fabric softeners as they degrade the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Drying: Air dry the garment naturally. If the DWR finish loses effectiveness, tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the coating, or apply a re-proofing spray.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be worn over standard thermal base layers or light fleeces. Because it is highly insulated, avoid thick, bulky layers underneath, as these may restrict movement and reduce the breathability of the fabric.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place and ensure the jacket is completely clean and dry before putting it away for the off-season.
