Trespass Dripdrop Padded Waterproof Rain Suit - Navy Blue - 7-8

A 2000mm waterproof rating means the fabric can withstand a 2000mm column of water over 24 hours before water begins to seep through. This indicates good protection against light to moderate rain and splashes, ensuring your child stays dry in typical wet conditions.

3000mvp (Moisture Vapour Permeability) indicates the fabric's ability to allow moisture vapor (perspiration) to escape from the inside out. A 3000mvp rating means 3000 grams of water vapor can pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours, helping to prevent your child from feeling clammy and overheated during active play.

Yes, the Trespass Dripdrop suit is padded for warmth and is windproof, making it suitable for cooler autumn and mild winter conditions. For very cold winter weather, we recommend layering it over appropriate thermal clothing for optimal insulation.

The suit is designed for children aged 7-8. However, as sizes may run large, it's best to consider your child's specific height and build. If your child is between sizes or at the lower end of the age range, you might consider sizing down or trying it on over typical layers to assess the fit.

Yes, the reflective piping is designed to reflect light from sources like car headlights, streetlights, or flashlights, significantly increasing your child's visibility to others in low-light conditions such as dusk, dawn, or overcast weather. It acts as an important safety feature.

No, it is strongly advised not to use fabric softener. Fabric softeners can clog the pores of breathable and waterproof fabrics, reducing their performance and potentially damaging the waterproof coating. Stick to mild detergents specifically designed for outdoor gear or a gentle, non-biological detergent.

Check if the suit is being worn over too many warm layers, which can cause internal condensation due to the child overheating. Ensure all zippers are fully closed and elasticated cuffs/ankles are snug to prevent external water entry. Confirm the suit is clean, as dirt can impair breathability.

Ensure the fabric lining is not caught in the zipper teeth. Try gently pulling the fabric away. If it continues, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like zipper wax or a silicone-based spray) to the teeth to help it glide more smoothly. Avoid forcing the zipper.

This suit's sizing may run large. Consider if your child needs to wear thicker layers underneath. If it's still too large, it might indicate that a smaller size would be more appropriate for your child's current build.

First, ensure it's not condensation from the inside (see 'Child feels damp inside' issue). If actual leakage, check for any tears, punctures, or signs of wear on the taped seams. While unlikely for a new suit, extreme prolonged downpour can sometimes challenge any waterproof rating. Ensure the care instructions have been followed, as improper washing can degrade waterproofing.
