FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof or water-repellent?

The jacket is water-repellent, designed to protect against light rain and showers. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket might be more suitable.

What is the G/M²/24hrs rating?

The jacket has a rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs, indicating its breathability level. This means it can allow 5000 grams of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours.

How do I find the right size for my child?

Refer to the sizing chart provided in the product description. Measurements are typically given in inches for chest size relevant to age groups. It's recommended to measure your child's chest and compare it to the chart.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

This jacket is primarily a shell layer and offers limited insulation. For cold weather, it is best worn over warm layers like a fleece or sweater.

How do I store the jacket when not in use?

The jacket is designed to be packable. Fold it down according to its internal instructions or simply compress it and store it in a backpack or its own hood pocket if applicable.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is a grown-on style with an elasticated edge to help secure the fit around the child's head.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent finish may need reactivating. Tumble dry on a low heat setting according to care instructions. If the issue persists, consider a re-waterproofing treatment suitable for polyamide fabrics.

Jacket feels damp inside after wear.

Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully, including the storm flap, to prevent wind and moisture ingress. Also, check that the breathability is sufficient for the activity level; very high exertion in humid conditions may still lead to some internal moisture.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or beeswax to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight and easy to carry
  • Effectively repels light rain and wind
  • Folds down small for convenient storage
  • Breathable material enhances comfort during activity
  • Durable construction for active children

Cons

  • Offers minimal insulation for cold weather
  • May not be suitable for heavy downpours
  • Sizing can be specific, requiring careful measurement
  • The packaway nature means it's a shell, not a warming layer

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no assembly. It is designed to be worn as an outer layer. For care, always follow the washing instructions on the garment's label. Typically, this involves:

  1. Machine Wash: Wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, usually at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C).
  2. Avoid Fabric Softeners: Fabric softeners can diminish the water-repellent properties of the fabric.
  3. Rinse Thoroughly: Ensure all detergent is rinsed out.
  4. Tumble Dry (Low): A low heat tumble dry can help reactivate the water-repellent finish. Alternatively, air dry away from direct heat.
  5. Do Not Bleach or Iron: These actions can damage the fabric and its protective coatings.
