FAQs

What age range is this skirt suitable for?

This particular model is designed for ages 10+ and features a back zip with button fastening. Trutex offers a range of sizes to fit children at different stages.

Is the stain resistance effective on all colors?

The product description states that the RE-VIVE fabric, which is stain-resistant, is featured on the black and navy variants. Therefore, stain resistance is most effective on these colors.

How do I wash the skirt to maintain the pleats?

Machine wash on a cool cycle (30-40°C) with similar colors. Avoid high heat when drying. Minimal ironing is required, and if ironing is needed, use a cool setting and iron inside out.

What is the material composition of the skirt?

The skirt is made from 65% RE-VIVE recycled polyester fabric, which is designed to be sustainable and durable.

Can my child put this skirt on by themselves?

Yes, the skirt features a pull-on waistband designed for easy dressing, and for ages 10+, there is a back zip with a button fastening that children can typically manage independently.

Does Trutex offer this skirt in other colors?

Yes, Trutex offers school skirts in various colors, including grey. Please check other product listings for different color options.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their sharpness

Ensure the skirt is not over-dried on high heat. Air drying is preferable. If ironing is needed, use a cool setting and iron inside out, avoiding direct pressure on the pleats.

Stains not washing out completely

For persistent stains, try a mild stain remover specifically designed for polyester fabrics before washing. Test the stain remover on an inconspicuous area first. Note that stain resistance is most effective on fresh spills.

Waistband feels too tight or loose

The skirt features a pull-on waistband for ease of wear. If the fit is uncomfortable, check the size guide to ensure the correct waist measurement was selected. This model is designed for ages 10+ and includes a back zip and button fastening for minor adjustments.
