FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides good warmth for its weight due to synthetic insulation, making it suitable for cool to mild winter conditions. For extreme cold, layering or a heavier insulated jacket might be more appropriate.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Refer to the garment's care label for precise instructions.

What does 'water-repellent' mean for this jacket?

The fabric has been treated to repel water, meaning light rain or splashes will bead up and roll off. It is not fully waterproof and may not withstand prolonged heavy rain.

Can the hood be removed?

No, the hood is fixed and features elasticated trim for a snug fit.

What are the benefits of using recycled materials?

Using recycled materials reduces waste and the demand for new resources, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.

Is the insulation down or synthetic?

This jacket uses premium synthetic down insulation, which mimics the warmth of down but is often more resilient to moisture and easier to care for.

What sizes are available?

This model is designed for kids and is available in various junior sizes. Specific size availability may vary.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not shedding water effectively

The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment following the product's instructions.

Jacket feels less warm than expected

Ensure the synthetic insulation is not compressed. If washed, ensure it's dried properly, and consider layering for colder conditions.

Zipper is difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil on the teeth can sometimes help.

Pockets not closing securely

Ensure the hook and loop fasteners are clean and free from debris. Gently brush or clean the hook and loop surfaces to restore their grip.
