FAQs
What age group is this parka suitable for?
This parka is designed for kids and is available in various children's UK sizes.
How should I clean the faux fur lining?
The entire parka can be machine washed. Ensure it is fully dried on a low heat setting or air-dried to keep the faux fur lining in good condition.
Is this parka truly waterproof or water-resistant?
The parka features durable waterproof construction, meaning it is designed to keep the wearer dry in significant wet conditions.
Can I use bleach or fabric softener?
No, avoid using bleach or fabric softener as they can damage the fabric and compromise its waterproof properties.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the size guide for Berghaus kids' clothing, which typically uses UK children's sizing. It is advisable to measure your child and compare against the provided dimensions.
How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?
Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface and is starting to soak into the fabric, typically after several washes or extensive use.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking through the fabric
The durable water repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Wash the jacket and then re-apply a waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product instructions.
Zipper is stuck
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's caught on fabric, carefully try to free the material. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or wax can sometimes help.
Lining feels damp after washing
Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dried according to the care instructions. Incomplete drying can lead to a damp feel, especially with the faux fur lining.
