FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is water-repellent and designed for light to moderate rain. For prolonged or heavy downpours, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating would be more suitable.
How do I know which size to order?
Please refer to the 'Size Guide' section within the product description for detailed measurements. It provides chest measurements for various age groups.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
This jacket is designed for protection against rain and wind, not for insulation. It can be layered over warmer clothing during colder months.
How easy is it to pack away?
The jacket is designed to be packaway. It can be folded or rolled into a compact size, making it easy to fit into a backpack or school bag.
What does '5000g/m²/24hrs' refer to?
This figure indicates the breathability rating of the fabric. It means that 5000 grams of moisture vapor can pass through one square meter of the fabric in a 24-hour period, signifying good breathability.
How should I wash the jacket?
The jacket can be machine washed at 30°C. It's recommended to close all zippers before washing and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.
What is the warranty period for this jacket?
Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty policy for details, as warranty periods can vary.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer water-repellent.
The water-repellent finish may have worn off over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment following the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently try to pull the fabric away. Lubricate the zipper with a wax-based product or a small amount of graphite from a pencil.
Child feels damp inside the jacket.
This could be due to condensation, especially during high activity. Ensure the hood is properly adjusted and the jacket is not overly tight. If it persists, the conditions might be too humid for the jacket's breathability rating.
Seams appear to be leaking.
Check if the taped seams are intact. If there is visible damage to the tape, the waterproofing may be compromised. Contact customer service if the jacket is still under warranty.
