Product Information
Full details
The Kite Cloud Nine Puddlepack Suit is an essential piece of outdoor gear for active children aged 5-6 years, specifically designed for those unpredictable springtime showers. Its standout benefit is the ultra-convenient pack-away design that allows the entire suit to fold into itself, making it perfect for stashing in a school bag or car glovebox. While it provides excellent waterproof protection, it is a lightweight layer, so it is best suited for warmer, rainy days rather than extreme winter conditions.

FAQs
Is this suit warm enough for winter?
No, this is a lightweight rain suit designed for mild, wet weather. It is not insulated and should be used as a waterproof shell over warmer layers for colder temperatures.
Can I tumble dry the suit?
No, it is recommended to air dry the suit to prevent damage to the waterproof membrane and taped seams.
What does the 3,000 mm waterproof rating mean?
It means the fabric can withstand 3,000 mm of water pressure before leaking, making it highly effective for moderate rain.
Does the suit come with a storage bag?
The suit is designed to pack away into itself, meaning it does not require a separate storage bag.
What age is the 5-6 size intended for?
This size is designed to fit children aged 5 to 6 years, generally based on average height and weight for that age range.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be seeping through seams
Ensure the garment was not washed with fabric softeners, which can degrade the waterproof coating. If the coating is still intact, double-check that the item was turned inside out during the wash cycle.
Difficulty zipping the front
Check for fabric caught in the zipper track. Ensure no mud or grit is lodged in the teeth of the zip and clean with a damp cloth if necessary.
