FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Regatta Kids Pro Stormbreak is a shell jacket and does not provide inherent insulation. For very cold weather, it should be worn over warm base and mid-layers, such as a fleece or thermal top, to provide adequate warmth.

Are the coordinating Stormbreak trousers included with the jacket?

No, the coordinating Stormbreak trousers are sold separately. This allows you to choose the exact size and style of trousers needed for your child.

How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof over time?

To maintain its waterproof properties, always follow the care instructions: machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners, and air dry. Over time, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may wear off, but it can be restored with a suitable DWR re-proofing product designed for waterproof garments.

Does this jacket have pockets?

Info needed: Details regarding pockets are not specified in the product information. Please refer to the product listing or contact customer support for clarification on pocket features.

What age group is this specific jacket designed for?

This particular Regatta Professional Kids Pro Stormbreak Waterproof Shell Jacket is sized for children aged `5-6 years`. Other sizes and variants may be available.

Can this jacket be tumble dried?

No, it is not recommended to tumble dry this jacket. Tumble drying can damage the waterproof coating and fabric. Always air dry the jacket away from direct heat.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside after prolonged rain.

Check if the jacket is worn over too many warm layers, leading to condensation from internal moisture. Also, ensure all zippers are fully closed and the hood is properly adjusted. Confirm that the care instructions have been followed, as improper washing can affect waterproofing over time. Re-treating with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for waterproof clothing might be necessary after extensive use and washes.

Jacket appears stiff or less flexible after washing.

This can happen if high heat was used during washing or drying, or if fabric softener was applied. Always wash at 30°C and air dry. Avoid fabric softeners. The stiffness should lessen with wear, but continued improper care can degrade the fabric's integrity.
