Product Information

Full details

This Mountain Warehouse soft shell jacket is designed for active children, offering protection against wind and light rain while remaining breathable. It's ideal for everyday wear, school, or outdoor adventures. A potential consideration is that while water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof, so heavy downpours may require additional protection. Key features include a fleece lining for warmth, a grown-on hood, chin guard, and two side pockets.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

No, this jacket is water-resistant, not fully waterproof. It is designed to repel light rain and showers, but for heavy or prolonged rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket is recommended.

How do I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 30°C. Avoid bleaching, high heat drying, ironing, and dry cleaning. Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for full details.

What does 'DWR Finish' mean?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to keep the wearer dry in light rain.

Is the hood adjustable?

The jacket features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is attached and shaped for coverage but does not have drawstrings or adjusters for tightening.

What age group is this jacket for?

This specific product is sized for kids, with this variant being size 9-10 years.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

Yes, the fleece lining provides warmth, making it suitable for cooler temperatures. For very cold conditions, layering may be advisable.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp after light rain.

The DWR finish may need reapplication. Clean the jacket and apply a suitable DWR treatment according to product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to close.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If still stiff, apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or beeswax) to the zipper teeth.

Fleece lining feels matted.

Ensure the jacket is washed and dried according to care instructions. Avoid high heat during drying which can damage the fleece.

  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
