FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter use?

The Regatta Kids Pro Stormbreak Jacket is a waterproof and windproof shell. For winter use or very cold weather, it must be paired with appropriate warm underlayers like a fleece or thermal clothing, as it does not provide insulation on its own.

Are the matching trousers included with the jacket?

No, the coordinating Stormbreak trousers are sold separately. This allows you to purchase the jacket and trousers as individual items.

What does 'Hydrafort 5000' mean?

Hydrafort 5000 is Regatta's proprietary waterproof polyester fabric technology. The '5000' typically refers to the hydrostatic head rating in millimeters, indicating a good level of waterproof performance against rain.

How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof?

Follow the care instructions on the garment label carefully. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can degrade the waterproof coating. Regular cleaning and occasional re-proofing with a DWR-restoring product (if suitable for the fabric) can help maintain its waterproof properties.

Does the hood adjust?

The jacket features an integral hood, meaning it is built into the jacket. The product description does not specify adjustability features for the hood.

Can this jacket be used for school or just for outdoor adventures?

Yes, it is versatile enough for both! It's perfect for 'walking to school on a wet and windy day' and equally suitable for 'splashing in muddy puddles' during weekend adventures, providing reliable protection in both scenarios.

Troubleshooting

Jacket seems less waterproof over time.

Ensure the jacket is cleaned regularly according to care instructions, as dirt and oil can reduce water repellency. Consider using a technical wash specifically designed for waterproof outerwear to restore DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, if applicable to the product.

Child feels cold despite wearing the jacket.

This jacket is a shell designed for waterproof and windproof protection, not insulation. Ensure your child is wearing appropriate warm underlayers (e.g., fleece, thermal top) beneath the jacket for adequate warmth in cold conditions.

Cuffs feel too tight or loose.

The elasticated cuffs are a fixed design. Ensure you have the correct size jacket for your child. If the fit is uncomfortable, consider if a different size might be more suitable.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and windproof protection for various weather conditions.
  • Durable Hydrafort 5000 polyester fabric with taped seams ensures longevity.
  • Practical design with an integral hood and convenient lower pockets.
  • Enhanced safety through reflective trim details for better visibility.
  • Ideal for layering over warmer clothing in colder conditions.

Cons

  • Coordinating trousers are sold separately, requiring an additional purchase for a full suit.
  • As a shell jacket, it offers no specific insulation for warmth; layering is essential in cold weather.
  • Elasticated cuffs are fixed and not adjustable, which might not suit all wrist sizes.
  • Only two lower pockets are available, limiting storage options.

This jacket requires no complex setup; simply put it on your child for immediate protection. It is designed to be worn "over warm under layers" for insulation in colder conditions. For complete weather protection, coordinating Stormbreak trousers are available and "sold separately."

Care Instructions

To maintain the performance and longevity of your Regatta Kids Pro Stormbreak Jacket, follow these general guidelines (always check the specific care label on the garment for precise instructions):

  • Washing: Machine wash gently at a low temperature, ideally `30°C` or `cold`, using a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the waterproof coating.
  • Drying: Air dry the jacket naturally by hanging it up. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the waterproof membrane and taped seams.
  • Ironing: Do not iron.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  • Storage: Store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
