Full details

The Regatta Highton Shell Jacket is designed for active children who need reliable protection during outdoor adventures in unpredictable weather. Utilizing premium Isotex 20000 stretch fabric, this jacket offers a high level of waterproof and breathable performance that keeps kids dry without restricting movement. While it provides excellent protection, users should note that as a shell jacket, it relies on layering underneath to provide thermal insulation during colder months.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

It is a shell jacket and is not insulated. It works perfectly in winter when worn over a thermal base layer and a fleece.

Can this be washed in a standard washing machine?

Yes, it is fully machine washable. We recommend a gentle cycle and avoiding softeners.

Does the hood detach?

No, the technical hood is integrated into the high collar design for maximum weather protection.

Is the fabric noisy when moving?

Thanks to the stretch fabric, this shell is quieter and more flexible than traditional stiff waterproof jackets.

What is the sizing for 3-4?

This size is designed for standard UK children's clothing dimensions for the 3-4 year age group.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels wet inside during heavy rain.

Check if the inner mesh lining is damp from perspiration, as breathability can be reduced if the humidity outside is extremely high.

Water is no longer beading on the surface.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the garment and re-apply a technical waterproofing spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the waterproof coating, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a gentle, cold machine wash cycle. Avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners as they can strip the waterproof finish.
  2. Drying: Air dry the jacket naturally. High heat from a tumble dryer can damage the technical membrane.
  3. Maintenance: If water begins to bead less effectively over time, apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for synthetic waterproof gear.
  4. Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place on a hanger to maintain the shape of the hood and collar.
