FAQs
What material is the lining made of?
The lining of the jacket and trousers is made of fleece, providing warmth and comfort.
Is this set suitable for very cold, icy conditions?
The set is designed for cold weather and offers snowproof protection with a fleece lining. For extremely cold or icy conditions, layering additional thermal clothing underneath is recommended.
How do I check the correct size for my child?
Refer to the size guide provided, which includes measurements such as inseam length for different age groups (e.g., 3-4 Years: 22.5 in, 2-3 Years: 21.5 in, 5-6 Years: 23.5 in). It's recommended to measure your child for the best fit.
Can the jacket and trousers be purchased separately?
This product is sold as a set. However, Mountain Warehouse may offer separate jackets and trousers depending on availability.
What does 'Ripstop' fabric mean?
Ripstop fabric is woven with a special reinforcing technique that makes it resistant to tearing and ripping. This adds to the durability of the garment.
How should I wash the ski jacket set?
The set can be machine washed at 40°C with similar colors. Use a non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat or hang to dry.
Does the hood detach?
The hood is a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.
Are there any reflective elements for visibility?
The product description does not specifically mention reflective elements. It's advisable to check product images or inquire further if high visibility is a primary concern.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through the fabric.
The garment's water-repellent finish may have worn off. Re-apply a suitable water-repellent treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track.
Garment feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the fleece lining is not compressed and consider layering with additional thermal wear underneath for colder conditions.
Velcro on cuffs is not holding securely.
Clean the Velcro strips to remove any lint or debris that might be preventing a strong hold. Ensure the Velcro is aligned correctly when fastening.
