It is showerproof, meaning it protects against light rain and drizzle, but it is not fully waterproof and will soak through in heavy downpours.
Iloft is a specialized insulation material used by Dare 2b that provides a high warmth-to-weight ratio, keeping kids warm without making the jacket heavy.
No, the jacket features a grown-on hood, which means it is permanently attached to the collar.
Yes, the jacket includes two zip-fastened lower pockets, ideal for keeping small items secure.
Yes, it can be machine washed on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent.
The Iloft filling may have clumped; tumble dry the jacket on low heat with a clean tennis ball to restore loft.
The durable water repellent (DWR) coating may be worn down. Apply a fabric-safe waterproofing spray designed for synthetic jackets.
Gently clean the zipper tracks with a soft brush to remove debris and apply a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant.
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always zip up the main zipper and the two lower pockets before putting it in the wash to prevent snags. Use a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the showerproof coating on the ripstop fabric. Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle. For drying, it is best to tumble dry on a low heat setting with a clean tennis ball to help redistribute the Iloft insulation, or line dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
