FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, you can machine wash it at 30°C. Ensure you use a gentle cycle and avoid fabric softeners.

Does it provide insulation for cold weather?

The jacket is primarily a waterproof shell. It is windproof, but you may want to layer a fleece or sweater underneath for warmth in colder temperatures.

What is the sizing for the 7-8 model?

The 7-8 size is designed to fit average-sized children within that age range, utilizing adjustable features to refine the fit.

Can I tumble dry this jacket?

Yes, you can tumble dry on a cool setting. Heat can actually help reactivate the water-repellent properties of the fabric.

What does the 20000 breathability rating mean?

This indicates that the fabric allows 20,000 grams of water vapor to escape per square meter over 24 hours, keeping the wearer dry during active play.

Troubleshooting

Water starts soaking into the outer fabric instead of beading off.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and apply a DWR re-proofer spray to restore performance.

Zippers are sticking or difficult to move.

Check for debris or dirt caught in the zipper teeth. Clean gently with a soft brush and use a silicone-based zipper lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level 20000mm waterproof rating
  • Excellent breathability for high-energy activities
  • Secure storage with four zippered pockets
  • Adjustable cuffs and hem for a custom fit

Cons

  • Requires specialized care to maintain DWR coating
  • Synthetic material may feel less soft than natural fibers
  • Monochrome colour block style may not suit all preferences

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the waterproof performance, proper care is essential. Always close all zippers before washing the garment. Use a non-biological liquid detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating. Wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C. For drying, a cool tumble dry can help reactivate the water-repellent finish, though air drying is recommended to preserve the integrity of the fabric. If the jacket loses its ability to shed water, consider using a specialized DWR re-proofer spray after cleaning.
