What makes this fleece gilet warm?
Our fleece is magic: Its structure captures air to make it extremely insulating! The result? Your body stays warm inside the fleece gilet. Your child can enjoy outdoor adventures without ever shivering.
Why a breathable fleece?
Little adventurers love running around outside, and that's great! The problem is that their clothes can become like a sauna because of their perspiration. But, don't worry, the fabric of our fleece is breathable and wicks away moisture. So, you'll forget you are even wearing it!
What is the RET index?
The breathability of a fabric is measured by its evaporative resistance RET (ISO 11092 standard): The lower it is, the more breathable the fabric. Examples: RET< 9 (very breathable), 9 < RET < 12 (breathable), RET > 20 (low breathability).
This fleece jacket has a RET index of 6.3.
A jacket that's practical to store?
We know that packing a hiking bag can be really tricky. So we really thought about the design of this gilet. It's very low weight means it won't weigh on your shoulders and the compressible fabric means it takes up minimal room and space in the bag. Isn't that great!
What sizes are available?
This fleece jacket is available from age 2 to 6 years old.
How is the resistance measured?
We guarantee the durability of our products using rigorous tests. We check the resistance:
- of the fabric to piling;
- of the colours to washing;
- of the fabric to repeated washing;
- of the fabric to abrasion and friction with a Martindale test.
How should this fleece gilet be washed?
This fleece gilet is machine washable at 30° C, making sure you don't exceed 1000 rpm for the spin cycle. Remember to turn it inside out and fasten the zip before washing. And a little tip: Don't tumble dry it to ensure the fabric stays in good condition!
Wash before first use.
Do not dry clean.
