FAQs

What age group is this jacket suitable for?

This jacket is designed for children, available in sizes ranging from younger ages up to teenagers (e.g., 7-8 years, 15-16 years).

Is the jacket warm enough for winter?

The jacket is a waterproof shell designed for protection against rain and wind. It is lightweight and breathable, so for colder weather, layering with a fleece or warm sweater underneath is recommended.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a technical wash or liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents and fabric softeners. Rinse well and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Do not dry clean.

What does 'Isolite 10000' mean?

Isolite 10000 refers to Regatta's technology fabric that offers a waterproof rating of 10,000mm and a breathability rating suitable for active use.

Are the reflective details durable?

Yes, the reflective details are designed to withstand normal wear and washing. It's advisable to follow the specific care instructions to prolong their effectiveness.

Can this jacket be worn for sports?

Yes, its lightweight, breathable, and waterproof features make it suitable for various outdoor activities and sports where protection from the elements is needed.

What if the jacket's water repellency decreases?

Water repellency can be restored by cleaning the jacket according to the instructions and then reapplying a DWR finish, often achievable through tumble drying or ironing as per product guidelines.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure the jacket is clean; dirt and residue can affect performance. Follow the care instructions for washing and consider reapplying a DWR finish.

Reduced breathability, child feels clammy

Clean the jacket thoroughly to remove any buildup that may be blocking the pores of the Isolite fabric. Ensure the mesh lining is also clean.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow it to dry. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant specifically designed for zippers.

Elasticated cuffs feel loose

The elastic is designed for a snug fit to keep weather out. If the cuffs have stretched significantly, professional repair may be needed, though this is uncommon with proper care.
