Lyle and Scott 1/4 Zip Jumper - Blue - Size: 9-10

This particular Lyle and Scott 1/4 Zip Jumper is designed for kids, specifically sized 9-10 years. It is part of a range available for children from 7-8 years up to 15-16 years.

Yes, the jumper is made from 100% cotton, which is a natural fiber known for its excellent breathability, ensuring comfort for your child.

To minimize the risk of shrinkage, machine wash the jumper in cold water with similar colours. It is best to air dry it flat, or if using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting.

While 100% cotton is breathable, the soft brushed fabric is primarily designed for warmth. It is best suited for cooler temperatures, though the quarter-zip allows for some ventilation if worn indoors or during mild weather.

The embroidery is durable. When ironing, it is advisable to iron around the embroidered area or turn the jumper inside out to avoid direct contact with the hot iron, preserving the detail.

The quarter-zip design offers several benefits: it allows for easy on and off, quick adjustment for ventilation if your child gets too warm, and provides versatile layering options over other tops.

The suitability of this jumper for school uniforms depends on your child's school policy regarding colours and branded attire. Please check your school's specific uniform guidelines before purchase.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and, if desired and suitable for cotton, a fabric softener. Follow recommended wash temperatures (cold/warm). Air drying flat can also help maintain the fabric's natural softness.

To prevent future shrinkage, always wash in cold water and air dry flat or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting. High heat is a common cause of cotton shrinkage.

Gently trim any loose threads with sharp scissors. For pilling, use a fabric shaver or lint remover carefully to restore the smooth appearance. To help prevent pilling, wash the jumper inside out and avoid excessive friction during wear or washing.

Ensure the fabric around the zip is not caught. If it persists, a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specific zipper lubricant can sometimes help to ease the movement. Keep the zip clean from debris.
