Product Information
Full details
The Westford Mill Kids Full Apron is designed for children who engage in messy activities like painting, baking, or crafting. Its primary benefit is providing robust protection for clothes through its durable, high-quality 270gsm herringbone cotton drill material, though parents should note that it requires proper washing to maintain the fabric's integrity and softness over time.

FAQs
Is this apron machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable; however, we recommend using a gentle cycle and mild detergent to preserve the cotton fabric.
What does 270gsm mean?
GSM stands for grams per square meter. A weight of 270gsm indicates a thick, durable, and high-quality fabric that is heavier than standard thin cotton aprons.
Is the neck strap adjustable for different heights?
Yes, the riptape neck strap allows for quick and easy adjustments to match the height of the child.
Does the apron shrink in the dryer?
Since it is made of cotton, there is a risk of minor shrinkage if exposed to high heat. Air drying is the best way to maintain the original size.
Are there different color options available?
Yes, the Westford Mill series includes variants such as Natural/Classic Red and Natural/French Navy in addition to the Natural/Pastel Pink.
Troubleshooting
Riptape strap is losing stickiness
Remove any lint, threads, or debris trapped in the hook-and-loop fasteners using a fine-toothed comb or tweezers.
Apron appears stiff after washing
Ensure the apron is not overloaded in the dryer or allow it to air dry, then iron on a low setting to soften the cotton fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the apron, simply adjust the riptape neck strap to the desired length so the apron sits comfortably at the child's chest. Wrap the waist ties around the back and secure them in a knot. For care, it is recommended to wash the apron in cold or lukewarm water to maintain the fabric quality and the integrity of the riptape. Avoid harsh bleaches, and air dry whenever possible to minimize shrinking and extend the life of the cotton drill material.
