Full details

FAQs
Is the jacket waterproof?
The Fosters Hd Jn71 offers protection against light wind and moisture, but it is not a fully seam-sealed technical waterproof rain jacket.
How should I choose the right size for my child?
Consult the specific size guide for children's UK sizing; typically sizes are designated by age range, such as 7-8 or 9-10 years.
Can this jacket be worn for winter sports?
It is designed for everyday wear and lifestyle use. For dedicated skiing or snowboarding, we recommend Columbia's technical gear with higher insulation and waterproofing specs.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is integrated into the jacket construction for maximum wind protection and durability.
What colors are available?
The Fosters Hd Jn71 series is available in Blue, Purple, and Black variants.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull
Check the zipper track for small debris or fabric threads and ensure the jacket is fully zipped from the base to prevent misalignment.
Jacket fabric appears wrinkled
Lightly steam the exterior or hang the garment in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes; do not iron directly on the synthetic shell.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Columbia Fosters Hd Jn71 maintains its protective properties, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle. Always close all zippers and fastenings before washing to prevent snagging.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the performance of the fabric finish.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a hanger to maintain its shape.
- Compatibility: This jacket is designed to fit over standard base layers like t-shirts or light hoodies. For colder days, pair it with a thermal base layer for improved heat retention.
