Product Information

Full details

This Mountain Warehouse Raptor Snow Ski Jacket in Brown, size 9-10 years, is designed for young male adventurers facing snowy conditions. Its key benefit is providing durable, snowproof protection with a comfortable fleece lining, ensuring warmth and dryness on the slopes. A potential caveat is that while it offers good protection, it may not be suitable for extreme arctic conditions without additional layering. Key features include a DWR finish, hardwearing material, a grown-on hood, adjustable cuffs, and multiple zip pockets for secure storage.

FAQs

What age group is this jacket designed for?

This specific jacket is size 9-10 years, designed for children within that age range.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the jacket features a grown-on hood, meaning it is attached and not designed to be removed.

How do I clean the jacket?

The jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

What does DWR Finish mean?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a treatment applied to the fabric's exterior that causes water and snow to bead up and roll off, helping to keep the wearer dry.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold temperatures?

The jacket provides good warmth with its fleece lining and snowproof features. For extreme cold, layering with additional thermal base and mid-layers is recommended.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are zippered for security, but the jacket itself is described as snowproof, meaning it prevents snow ingress. For full waterproofing, consider placing sensitive items in a waterproof pouch within the pockets.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made of 100% Polyester with a Fleece lining.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively

The DWR finish may need reapplication. Follow the instructions on a commercial DWR re-proofer product suitable for synthetic outerwear.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and mild soap. Apply a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.

Fleece lining feels matted after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat with a couple of clean tennis balls to help restore fluffiness.

Pros and Cons

  • Comfortable fleece lining offers good insulation for cold weather.
  • Adjustable cuffs and multiple zip pockets add practical functionality.
  • DWR finish offers resistance to light moisture.
  • Durable polyester material is built to last.

Cons

  • May require additional layers for very extreme cold.
  • The grown-on hood is not detachable, which might not suit all preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: Designed as outerwear for children, it can be layered over base layers and mid-layers for varying temperatures. It is suitable for general outdoor activities in cold, snowy conditions.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance:

  1. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
  2. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR finish and breathability.

  4. Do not bleach or iron.
  5. Re-apply a DWR treatment periodically if water repellency diminishes, following product instructions.
