PRODUCT QUESTIONS
Question: Where can I find the size guide?Anorak: Sizing information can be found here or on the relevant product page. If you have any further questions, just email us for a bit more guidance.
Question: Are Anorak sleeping bags suitable for my young child?
Anorak: We advise our sleeping bags are suitable for children aged six and above to sleep in. We do not recommend young children to sleep in adult size sleeping bags because if the child wriggles down it can cause them distress and there is a risk of suffocation. Our sleeping bags can of course be unzipped and used as a floor mat for younger children to play, crawl or roll around on.
Question: What tog rating do our sleeping bags have?
Anorak: Our sleeping bags don’t carry an official tog rating, but they’re the equivalent of around 7.5 tog bedding. We describe them as a leisure, spring / summer sleeping bag – perfect for camping in warmer weather or cosy winter nights indoors on the sofa.
Question: How can I care for my Anorak knitwear?
Anorak: Anorak knitwear can contain wool, a material prone to pilling and bobbling. Check the specific product page for its fabric composition. You can help prevent pilling by:
- Washing the garment inside out on a delicates / wool cycle, or hand wash if possible. The less friction it meets, the less it will bobble.
- Using a specialist detergent for wool or delicates which will coat the wool fibres and reduce static and friction. Never use bleach.
- Washing with similar items and not overloading your washing machine as this can damage the fibres.
- Air drying not tumble drying as heat and friction will damage the fibres and cause pilling.
- Using a pilling comb to remove any bobbles

Question: I’m holding a charity event, will Anorak donate a prize?
Anorak: We receive a great deal of requests of this nature and judge them on a case by case scenario. We are most likely to support if your charity or community event is local to us in SE London or particularly relevent to our own brand values such us supporting the environment and wildlife.
