Troubleshooting

Vest seems too small

Verify the size ordered against the child's current clothing size. Consult the size chart if available or consider ordering a larger size if the child is between sizes or has a larger build. This specific listing is for an XS (size 3-4 UK years).

Reflective material appears dull

Ensure the vest is clean. Dirt or smudges can reduce reflectivity. Follow the care instructions for washing. Prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight or improper washing may degrade reflectivity over time.

Zip is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zip. Gently try to move the zip up and down. If the zip is stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) can sometimes help lubricate it.
