FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
Yes, it is windproof and waterproof, though it is a shell layer and you may need to add fleece or thermal layers underneath in freezing temperatures.
How do I determine the right size for my child?
The sizes provided (e.g., 9, 7-8) are based on standard UK children's sizing; please refer to your child's usual clothing size for the best fit.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is generally recommended to air dry the jacket to preserve the integrity of the taped seams and waterproof coating.
What is Isotex 20000?
It is a high-performance waterproof and breathable fabric technology designed specifically to keep the elements out while allowing moisture vapor to escape.
Does the hood detach?
The jacket features a fixed hood design for maximum weather protection.
How often should I re-proof the jacket?
Re-proofing frequency depends on usage; if water no longer beads off the fabric, it is time to re-apply a treatment.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface of the jacket
This indicates the DWR coating is wearing off; re-apply a technical reproofing treatment.
Difficulty zipping the main fastener
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and clear any debris from the zipper track.
Interior feels damp after heavy rain
Check that all zips are fully closed and the cuffs/hem are tightened correctly to prevent moisture ingress.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains effective, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a mild technical detergent designed for waterproof gear.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to avoid damaging the waterproof membrane.
- Re-proofing: If water stops beading on the surface, use a spray-on or wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to restore the finish.
- Storage: Always hang the jacket in a cool, dry place rather than folding it tightly for extended periods.
