FAQs

What age is this jacket suitable for?

This specific listing is for a size 5-6 years. Other sizes are available separately.

Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which helps to repel light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof and is best suited for cool, dry days or light showers.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls.

Can I iron the jacket?

It is generally not recommended to iron synthetic insulated jackets, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers and insulation. Check the care label for specific instructions.

What type of insulation does it use?

The jacket uses premium synthetic down insulation, which offers warmth and is lightweight.

Will the pattern fade with washing?

Following the care instructions carefully, including washing inside out and avoiding harsh detergents, should help preserve the vibrancy of the pattern.

Troubleshooting

Jacket loses its water-repellent properties.

Reapply a specific waterproofing treatment designed for outdoor clothing. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying.

Insulation feels flat or clumpy after washing.

Tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute and restore the loft of the synthetic insulation.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.
