FAQs
What age group is the Regatta Puddle IV Puddle Suit designed for?
This specific variant is designed for toddlers aged 18-24 months. Other sizes are available for infants, toddlers, and older children.
How do I clean the puddle suit?
The suit can be machine washed at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, high heat ironing, and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on a low heat and close all fasteners before washing.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is attached to the suit and not detachable.
What does 'Isolite 5000' mean?
Isolite 5000 refers to Regatta's technology for lightweight, waterproof, breathable, and windproof fabric. The '5000' rating indicates a water permeability of 5,000mm and a breathability rating of 5,000g/m²/24 hours.
Can this suit be worn in very cold weather?
The suit itself is primarily waterproof and windproof. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer appropriate thermal clothing underneath to provide insulation.
What is the purpose of the reflective trim?
The reflective trim is a safety feature designed to increase the visibility of the child in low light conditions, such as dawn, dusk, or overcast days.
How durable is the water repellent finish?
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish provides initial water resistance. Over time and with washing, this finish can diminish. Re-applying a DWR treatment can help restore its effectiveness.
Troubleshooting
Suit is not fully waterproof.
Ensure all seams are intact and that the fabric's Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is still effective. Re-apply DWR treatment if necessary. Check that the hood and cuffs are secured.
Child feels cold or too warm inside the suit.
Adjust the layers worn underneath. For colder weather, add a fleece or thermal layer. For warmer, wet weather, ensure the child is not overdressed, as the suit's breathability is key.
Suit is difficult to put on or take off.
Ensure the correct size is being used. The elasticated waist and cuffs are designed for a snug fit, which may require some adjustment during dressing. Check that all zippers or fastenings are fully open before dressing.
Reflective trim is peeling or damaged.
Avoid high heat in washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, do not attempt to repair with heat. Continue to use the suit, but be aware of reduced visibility.
