FAQs

Is the hood adjustable?

No, the hood is a fixed double-fabric design without drawcords to ensure safety for younger children.

Can I print on this jacket?

Yes, it is designed specifically with a clean surface and a covered zip to provide an optimal area for screen printing.

What age group is the size 5-6 for?

This size is designed for children typically aged 5 to 6 years old.

Does the material shrink?

Like most cotton-blend garments, minimal shrinkage may occur if washed in very hot water. Following the care label instructions will help minimize this.

Is this a heavy jacket?

It is a standard weight sweatshirt jacket, ideal for layering rather than use as a heavy winter coat.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stiff or sticks.

Check for fabric stuck in the zipper track; do not force it. Applying a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the teeth can help it slide smoothly.

Fabric appears to have lint or fuzz.

Turn the garment inside out before washing to reduce friction. Use a fabric shaver gently to remove any surface pilling that develops over time.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Complies with European safety regulations for children's clothing
  • Soft texture due to advanced Belcoro yarn
  • Excellent surface for printing and customization
  • Durable construction suitable for daily wear

Cons

  • No drawcords on the hood (though this is for safety)
  • Limited to specific age-based sizing
  • Metal zip requires gentle handling during laundry

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the best results, wash this garment with similar colours in cool or lukewarm water. Because of the metal zipper, it is recommended to zip the jacket up before placing it in the washing machine to prevent the teeth from snagging on other items. Avoid using harsh bleach to preserve the colour vibrancy. The jacket is designed to be low-maintenance, but air-drying is recommended over high-heat machine drying to maintain the integrity of the fabric and ribbing over time.
