Troubleshooting

Vest is not reflective

Ensure the reflective strips are clean and free from dirt or grime. Check for any damage to the reflective material. Wash according to care instructions if dirty.

Zip is difficult to use

Ensure the fabric around the zip is clear. If stiff, gently try to work the zip back and forth. Avoid forcing the zip, which could cause damage.

Vest seems too small/large

Refer to the sizing guide and compare it with the child's measurements. Different sizes are available; choose the size that allows for comfortable layering over clothing without being restrictive.

Reflective material peeling

This may indicate excessive heat during washing or drying, or wear and tear. Avoid high heat drying and inspect for further damage. If peeling is significant, consider replacement for safety.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable material suitable for active play.
  • Certified safety standards provide peace of mind.
  • Lightweight and comfortable for children to wear.
  • Easy to put on and take off.

Cons

  • Reflective properties can be diminished if the vest is dirty or damaged.
  • Specific sizing (e.g., XXS 3-4 years) might require careful measurement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This vest requires no setup. Simply ensure the child wears it over their clothing, securing the zip. For optimal safety, ensure the vest is the correct size for the child.

Compatibility: The vest is designed as unisex and suitable for children of various ages, with specific sizes available. It can be worn over most types of children's clothing.

Care: To maintain the vest's visibility and durability:

  • Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C) with similar colors. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the reflective material.
  • Drying: Air dry the vest. Tumble drying on high heat can damage the reflective elements and the fabric.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  • Maintenance: Regularly inspect the vest for any tears or damage to the reflective strips. Clean any dirt or grime promptly to ensure maximum reflectivity.
