Product Information
Full details
This Regatta Pack It III waterproof jacket is designed for active kids who love exploring outdoors, offering reliable weather protection through its waterproof and breathable Isotex 5000 fabric with taped seams. The key benefit is its lightweight, packable design, making it easy to carry on any adventure. A minor consideration is that it's a shell jacket, meaning it's best layered over other clothing for warmth. Key features include waterproof construction, breathability, a packaway hood, and durable nylon material.

FAQs
What does 'Isotex 5000' mean?
Isotex 5000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '5000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 5000mm, meaning it can withstand 5000mm of water pressure before leaking, and a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24h, meaning 5000g of water vapor can pass through the fabric in 24 hours.
Is this jacket warm on its own?
No, this is a waterproof shell jacket. It is designed to protect from rain and wind but does not provide significant insulation on its own. For warmth, it should be layered over fleece or other warm clothing.
How do I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid using bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat or line dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
Can this jacket be worn by any child?
This specific size is for children aged 2-3 years. The jacket is unisex and suitable for both boys and girls within that age range.
What are the benefits of the taped seams?
Taped seams mean that the stitching lines are covered with a waterproof tape. This prevents water from seeping through the small holes created by the needle during sewing, ensuring the jacket is fully waterproof.
How small does the jacket pack down?
The jacket is designed to pack away into its own bag, making it very compact and easy to carry in a backpack or pocket for convenience.
Troubleshooting
Water is leaking through seams
Ensure the garment has not been damaged and that the taped seams are intact. If damage is visible, repair may be needed. Follow washing instructions carefully to maintain fabric integrity.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This indicates the breathability may be maximized. Ensure the child is not overdressed underneath. For very humid conditions, some internal moisture buildup is normal, but should dissipate when activity levels decrease.
Jacket is difficult to pack into its own bag
Ensure the jacket is completely dry before attempting to pack it. Smooth out wrinkles and compress it firmly into the dedicated pouch.
