Full details
The Joules Borg Stripe Fleece Jacket is an ideal choice for active children who need extra warmth during outdoor play and autumn adventures. This vibrant, super-soft polyester fleece provides excellent insulation against chilly breezes, featuring a fun, colorful striped pattern that adds a pop of personality to any outfit. While the jacket offers superior comfort and practical utility with its deep pockets and easy-snap design, parents should note that it is crafted specifically for cooler weather and is best used as a mid-layer or light outerwear piece rather than a heavy-duty waterproof coat.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Joules Borg Stripe Fleece Jacket is made of polyester fleece and is designed for warmth rather than water protection.
Can I tumble dry the fleece?
It is recommended to air dry to keep the fleece texture soft. High heat in a tumble dryer can cause the polyester to mat over time.
What size is this specific jacket?
This variant is designed for UK size 7 children.
Is the jacket warm enough for winter?
It provides excellent warmth for mild to cool days. For freezing conditions, we recommend using it as a layering piece under a thicker, waterproof coat.
Are the pockets deep enough for gloves?
Yes, the pockets are designed to be roomy enough to hold gloves or small treasures found during outdoor play.
Troubleshooting
Popper fastenings are difficult to snap
Ensure there is no fabric trapped in the mechanism. If the snap remains stiff, ensure the garment is lying flat before attempting to press the popper together.
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Avoid using fabric softener, which can coat the fibers. Instead, use a gentle detergent and brush the fabric lightly with a soft-bristled brush once dry to restore the loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the softness of the borg fleece, ensure you follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle to protect the integrity of the polyester fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible; avoid using high heat in a tumble dryer as it can mat the fleece texture.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain the shape of the funnel neck.
- Compatibility: This piece is designed for UK children's sizing. As a size 7, it is intended to fit average builds for that age group comfortably. If you prefer to layer it over bulky sweaters, consider checking the fit with your child's favorite mid-layers first.
