Full details

FAQs

Is this coat suitable for winter?

It is a waterproof shell, not a heavy insulated coat. It works well in winter if paired with warm base layers or fleece mid-layers.

Can this be machine washed?

Yes, but use a cool, gentle cycle and avoid harsh chemicals or fabric softeners to protect the waterproof properties.

What is the best way to pack the coat?

Simply invert one of the side entry pockets and fold the coat into itself until it fits completely inside, then seal with the popper or zip provided.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is designed with an elasticated fit to stay securely in place during wind and rain.

Will the material handle heavy rain?

Yes, the fully taped seams and waterproof finish are designed to handle significant rainfall.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the fabric

The waterproof coating may have worn down; wash with a technical waterproof cleaner and re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray if necessary.

Zip getting stuck

Check for debris or fabric caught in the track, and apply a small amount of graphite or a specialist zip lubricant to smooth the movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Fully waterproof with taped seams for superior protection
  • Extremely portable due to the packable pocket design
  • Internal waist adjusters ensure a perfect fit as the child grows
  • Fun and engaging animal print design
  • Sturdy construction intended to withstand repeated use and hand-me-down wear

Cons

  • Lightweight construction offers minimal warmth on its own
  • Must be layered with sweaters or fleece in cold weather
  • Hand wash or specific care required to maintain waterproof coating

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep the Rainford raincoat in optimal condition, ensure the waist adjusters are loosened before putting the coat on, then tighten them to reach the desired fit. After a rainy day, shake off excess water and hang the coat in a well-ventilated area to dry completely before packing it into its pocket to prevent musty odors.

To clean, it is recommended to spot-clean with a damp cloth first. If a full wash is necessary, use a gentle detergent and ensure it is washed on a cool setting. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the waterproof finish of the material. Always hang dry rather than using a high-heat tumble dryer.
