FAQs

What does Isotex 10000 mean?

Isotex 10000 is a membrane technology that ensures the jacket is waterproof (rated to 10,000mm hydrostatic head) and windproof, while also being breathable (rated to 10,000g/m²/24hrs), allowing perspiration vapor to escape.

Is the jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?

The jacket features a Warmloft synthetic filling which provides good insulation. It is suitable for cooler weather and can be layered with additional warm clothing for colder conditions. For extreme cold, a heavier insulated jacket might be more appropriate.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket is machine washable. It is recommended to wash at 30 degrees, use a mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners and bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat. Always close fasteners before washing.

What is the difference between the size 9-10 Years and 10-11 Years?

The size 9-10 Years has a chest measurement of 28.5 inches, while the size 10-11 Years has a chest measurement of 29.5 inches. It is recommended to check the size guide for exact measurements.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is a grown-on hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket. It is also lined with Sherpa for added warmth.

How do I maintain the waterproof properties of the jacket?

Ensure you follow the washing instructions carefully, avoiding fabric softeners. After washing and drying, you can reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish using a spray or wash-in product specifically designed for outdoor gear to restore its water-beading capabilities.

What does 'Recycled Materials' mean in the product description?

This indicates that the jacket is made partly or wholly from polyester derived from recycled sources, such as plastic bottles, contributing to a more sustainable product lifecycle.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the jacket.

Ensure all zips and fastenings are fully closed. Check if the DWR finish needs refreshing; consider a re-proofer spray. The Isotex 10000 rating means it is waterproof, but extreme prolonged submersion or damage to the fabric could affect performance.

Jacket is not very warm.

Ensure the inner layers of clothing are appropriate for the temperature. The Warmloft filling provides warmth, but it is designed for moderate conditions and may require layering for colder weather. Check that the cuffs and hem are adjusted to prevent drafts.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's stuck on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax if it remains stiff. Ensure the zipper is closed completely before washing and drying.

Jacket appears less waterproof after washing.

Follow the care instructions carefully. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the waterproof properties. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment after washing and drying according to product instructions.
