This hooded blouson uses functional padding with heat retention and moisture-absorbing properties to help you get through the cold winter. The hood can be removed for going to and from school, eliminating the worry of it getting caught on anything. It also has a zipper guard for the child's safety when putting it on and taking it off themselves. I bought it last year and wore it for one season. It has been home-cleaned, but there is some soiling on the cuffs. Outer fabric: 100% nylon, Padding: 100% polyester, Lining: 100% nylon Hood: Hooded (removable)
