Dripdrop Padded Waterproof Rain Suit - Blue - 5-6

The Dripdrop rain suit is padded for warmth, making it suitable for cooler wet days. For very cold or snowy conditions, additional thermal layering underneath would be recommended, as it's designed primarily as a waterproof and windproof outer layer.

This specific variant is for children aged 5-6. Please note that the suit is mentioned to potentially run large. We recommend checking a detailed size chart if available, or considering trying it on for the best fit.

Yes, your child can wear a backpack over the rain suit. However, prolonged pressure from heavy backpacks might slightly compress the padding or affect breathability in that specific area over time.

The suit features a 100% Polyester shell with a PU Coating and taped seams, providing a 2000mm waterproof rating. With proper care, this coating is designed to withstand regular use and protect against rain. Avoid harsh detergents or high heat washing to maintain its integrity.

The suit is designed with an elasticated waistband, cuffs, and ankles to provide a comfortable fit that allows for movement. While it offers full-body coverage and padding, it is intended to allow for active play without undue restriction.

'Grown-on hood' means the hood is integrated directly into the design of the jacket and cannot be detached. This provides continuous protection and ensures it won't get lost.

With a breathability rating of 3000mvp, the suit allows some moisture vapor to escape. For summer rain, it would work well, but it might feel warmer due to the padding. Adjust layers underneath accordingly.

The suit is noted to potentially run large. Always refer to the size guide (if available) and consider trying it on your child. If it's too large, layering underneath can help, but for optimal protection, a correct fit is important.

Ensure all zips are fully closed and the hood is properly adjusted. While the suit is waterproof to 2000mm and has taped seams, extreme saturation or damage to the fabric can reduce effectiveness. Check for any rips or tears.

Despite being breathable (3000mvp), heavy activity or wearing too many layers underneath can lead to internal moisture. Adjust the layering based on activity level and outside temperature.

Ensure the reflective piping is clean and unobstructed. In very low light conditions or dense fog, additional reflective gear or bright clothing might be necessary.

Gently clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. Applying a small amount of zipper lubricant (like silicone spray) can improve movement. Avoid forcing the zipper.
