FAQs
What does Isotex 10000 mean?
Isotex 10000 indicates the fabric's waterproofing and breathability rating. It means the fabric is waterproof to 10,000mm and breathable to 10,000g/m²/24hrs, offering good protection against rain and allowing moisture vapor to escape.
Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?
The jacket has a synthetic filling (Warmloft, 180gsm) providing good insulation. For extremely cold conditions, layering with additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is a grown-on hood, meaning it is attached to the jacket and cannot be removed.
Are the materials recycled?
Yes, this jacket is made from recycled materials.
How do I clean the sherpa lining in the hood?
The sherpa lining can be cleaned following the standard washing instructions for the jacket. Avoid high heat drying, which can mat the sherpa.
What sizes are available for the printed name label?
The printed name label feature is available for sizes up to Age 8.
How do I adjust the hem and cuffs?
The cuffs have adjustable hook and loop straps. The hem can be adjusted using the shockcord toggle located on the inside of the hem.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and re-apply a suitable DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or sticking
Gently try to move the zipper. You can lubricate it with a graphite pencil (rubbing the lead on the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Reduced warmth after washing
Ensure the synthetic filling is not clumped. Tumble drying on a low heat with tennis balls can help redistribute the filling and restore loft.
Loose threads or minor damage
Carefully trim any loose threads with scissors. For larger tears, consider a fabric repair patch or professional mending.
