FAQs
What is the main benefit of the Isotex 10000 fabric?
The Isotex 10000 fabric offers a balance of waterproof protection and breathability, keeping children dry from external moisture like rain while allowing internal moisture (sweat) to escape.
How warm is the Thermoguard insulation?
The jacket features Thermoguard insulation with a weight of 120 g/m², providing substantial warmth suitable for colder weather conditions.
Are the reflective trims effective in all conditions?
The 360-degree reflective trims are designed to enhance visibility in low-light conditions such as dusk, dawn, or overcast weather. They reflect light from external sources.
Can the hood be removed?
No, the hood is fixed and elasticated, designed to provide consistent protection.
What is the recommended way to wash the jacket?
It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours, avoiding bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Check the specific care label on the garment for detailed instructions.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The jacket is primarily made from 62% polyester and 38% recycled polyester, with a fabric weight of 110 g/m².
Is this jacket suitable for very young children?
The jacket is designed for kids, with specific features like an adjustable drawcord hem for ages over 7 and an address label up to 8 years. Always refer to the size guide for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the outer fabric. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment, as dirt can affect performance. Follow the product instructions for the DWR spray or wash-in treatment.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Allow to dry completely, then apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to improve smoothness.
Jacket feels less warm than expected
Ensure all seals (cuffs, hem, hood) are tightened to prevent heat loss. Check that the insulation hasn't become compressed or damaged. Consider layering a warmer base layer underneath.
Reflective trims are peeling or damaged
Avoid high heat during washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, refrain from picking at it. For significant damage, consider professional repair or accepting the reduced visibility.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. It is designed for general children's clothing compatibility and can be worn over regular layers. For care, it is recommended to machine wash the jacket following the care label instructions. Typically, this involves washing on a gentle cycle with similar colours and avoiding the use of bleach or fabric softeners, which can degrade the waterproof properties. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Ironing should be done on a low setting if necessary, taking care not to iron directly on any printed logos or reflective trims.
