FAQs

Is this coat suitable for heavy rain?

It is rated up to 3,000 mm, which is excellent for light to moderate rain and splashing, but it is not intended for prolonged exposure to heavy, storm-like downpours.

Can I tumble dry the coat?

It is recommended to air dry the coat to protect the waterproof material; high heat from tumble dryers can damage the welded seams.

What does OEKO-TEX approved mean?

This certification means the fabric has been tested for harmful substances, ensuring it is safe and gentle for infant skin.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The coat is sized by age group. Refer to the specific month/year ranges provided in the product title to select the size that accommodates your child's growth.

Is the lining cotton?

Yes, the coat is constructed with cotton-based materials to ensure breathability and comfort against the child's clothing.

What is the benefit of welded seams?

Welded seams eliminate needle holes where water could typically leak through, providing a much higher level of waterproof protection than standard stitched seams.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the fabric surface

The exterior may need a gentle clean to remove dirt; if the issue persists after washing, the waterproof coating may eventually require a specialized re-proofing spray.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure no fabric is caught in the track and clean any trapped debris from the zipper teeth using a soft brush.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the waterproof coating, follow these care steps:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C. Always turn the coat inside out before putting it in the machine to protect the exterior print.
  2. Drying: Air dry the garment. Do not tumble dry unless on a very low heat, and avoid direct high-heat sources.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron the coat as the heat can damage the synthetic waterproof membrane.
  4. Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
  5. Maintenance: Regularly wipe off mud or dirt with a damp cloth to maintain the garment's breathability and waterproof performance.
