FAQs

What age group is this jacket for?

This specific jacket is listed for girls aged 7-8 years. However, the Orla Kiely Padded Jacket style is available in various sizes for children.

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, which means it can resist light rain and splashes. It is not fully waterproof and is best suited for dry or lightly wet conditions.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

The jacket provides lightweight warmth suitable for chilly days. For very cold weather, layering additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.

What are the benefits of synthetic down insulation?

Synthetic down insulation offers excellent warmth without adding significant weight, dries faster than natural down, and retains its insulating properties even when damp.

How can I maintain the water-repellent finish?

The water-repellent finish can be maintained by avoiding fabric softeners during washing and by using a suitable re-proofer spray designed for outdoor clothing after several washes.

Does the Orla Kiely print fade easily?

The print is designed for durability. Following the care instructions, particularly regarding washing and drying temperatures, will help preserve the vibrancy of the print.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not providing enough warmth

Ensure the jacket is zipped up completely. Layering additional clothing underneath can increase warmth in colder temperatures.

Water-repellent finish seems less effective

The water-repellent finish may degrade over time. Consider using a re-proofer spray suitable for outdoor apparel to restore its performance. Follow the re-proofer's instructions carefully.

Visible dirt or stains

Spot clean small stains with a damp cloth and mild soap. For more significant dirt, follow the machine washing instructions outlined in the care section.

Jacket feels stiff after washing

Ensure the jacket is tumble dried on a low heat setting or properly air-dried. Gently fluff the insulation if needed once dry.
