Product Information
Full details
This Regatta Waterproof Jacket Pack It III is designed for active kids who need reliable protection from the elements. Its key benefit is its packaway design, making it easy to carry on the go. A potential caveat is that it's primarily for water repellency, not heavy downpours. It's a lightweight, breathable, and water-repellent jacket featuring a grown-on hood and full zip fastening.

FAQs
What does 'Packaway' mean?
Packaway means the jacket is designed to be folded or rolled into a compact size, making it easy to carry in a small bag or pocket for convenience.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is water-repellent, making it ideal for light showers. For prolonged or heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket with taped seams throughout might be more appropriate.
What is the breathability rating?
The jacket has a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs, which indicates its ability to allow water vapor to pass through the fabric, helping to keep the wearer comfortable during activity.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided, which usually includes chest measurements or age ranges. For this specific jacket, size 2-3 years corresponds to a chest measurement of 21.5 inches.
Can this jacket be worn over other layers?
Yes, it is designed as an outer layer. While lightweight, it can be worn over a t-shirt or a light fleece for added warmth, but it is not heavily insulated itself.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyamide, which is known for its durability, lightness, and quick-drying properties.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
The water-repellent finish may need reapplication after several washes. Use a suitable waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and apply a small amount of lubricant like beeswax or a graphite pencil lead.
Jacket feels damp inside after wear.
This could be due to high humidity or the child being very active. Ensure the jacket is properly aired out after use. Check that the breathability rating is suitable for the activity level and environmental conditions.
