Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the waterproofing, follow these simple care guidelines. Always wash the jacket in cool water with a mild detergent, avoiding harsh fabric softeners which can degrade the performance of the Hydrafort coating. Drip dry the jacket naturally rather than using a tumble dryer, as high heat can damage the taped seams and outer material. For sizing, the 9-10 year size is designed for standard growth patterns, but consider that if you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath, you may want to ensure the fit remains comfortable around the shoulders and arms. Inspect the zip regularly to ensure it is free from debris, ensuring smooth operation for the child.
