Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Lofthouse Padded Jacket is an ideal choice for children who need a reliable, insulated layer for everyday outdoor wear and school days. It provides excellent thermal protection with its WARMLOFT padding and a durable water-repellent finish, ensuring kids stay warm and dry during damp, cool weather. While it is highly practical and features safety elements like reflective trims, parents should note that it is designed as a lighter-weight insulated piece rather than a heavy-duty waterproof parka.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a durable water-repellent finish that makes it resistant to light rain, but it is not classified as fully waterproof for heavy, sustained downpours.
Can this be worn in the middle of winter?
It is best suited for autumn, spring, or mild winter days. For extreme cold, it can be used as an effective mid-layer underneath a larger, waterproof shell.
What is the best way to clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-repellent treatment from the fabric.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is fixed and elasticated for a secure fit that stays in place during activity.
Is the sizing true to fit?
Regatta sizes generally follow standard UK children's sizing. We recommend checking your child's measurements against the brand's size guide for the most accurate fit.
Troubleshooting
The zip feels stuck or stiff.
Check for fabric caught in the teeth and ensure the zipper is clean of debris. Applying a small amount of clear candle wax or a graphite pencil lead to the teeth can help lubricate the mechanism.
The jacket seems less warm than when it was new.
The synthetic padding may have clumped after washing. Gently fluff the jacket by hand or tumble dry on a very low, cool setting with clean tennis balls to redistribute the filling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the Regatta Lofthouse jacket in top condition, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the insulation.
- Water-Repellent Maintenance: Over time, the water-repellent finish may wear off. You can restore this using a dedicated wash-in or spray-on reproofing agent specifically designed for synthetic outerwear.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to keep its shape and avoid compressing the synthetic padding unnecessarily.
