Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Andreson Hybrid Jacket is designed for active kids who need a warm, lightweight, and flexible outer layer for everyday adventures. Its key benefit is the combination of Warmloft insulation for warmth without bulk and Extol Stretch panels for unrestricted movement. A potential caveat is that while water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof, meaning it may not offer complete protection in heavy rain. This jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, two zipped pockets, and a grown-on hood, making it ideal for school or weekend exploration.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light rain and splashes. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in prolonged or heavy rainfall.
How do I wash the jacket?
It is recommended to machine wash the jacket according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and ironing.
Can I put the jacket in the dryer?
Yes, the jacket can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. This can also help to maintain the loft of the insulation.
What is Warmloft insulation?
Warmloft is a synthetic insulation technology that mimics the warmth and loft of down without the bulk or loss of insulation when wet. It traps heat effectively to keep the wearer warm.
Are the stretch panels durable?
The Extol Stretch panels are made from a blend of polyester and elastane (60% polyester/30% polyester/10% elastane), designed for flexibility and resilience during active use.
What age is the printed name label for?
The printed name label is included for children up to age 8.
Does the hood have adjustable toggles?
The hood features stretch binding around the opening for a snug fit but does not have adjustable toggles.
Troubleshooting
Jacket seems less water-repellent over time.
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may need refreshing. Consider using a technical wash product designed to restore DWR properties after cleaning.
Insulation feels flat or less warm.
Ensure the jacket is washed and tumble dried correctly according to care instructions. Tumble drying on low heat can help to re-fluff the insulation.
Zipper is stiff or catching.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil tip or a specialized zipper lubricant can help ease a stiff zipper.
