FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
The Regatta Junior Embrie Jacket features Warmloft insulation for warmth in cooler conditions, but it is designed as a lightweight layer. For very cold winter temperatures, we recommend layering it over warmer clothing or choosing a heavier-duty winter coat.
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, meaning it will protect against light rain and drizzles. It is not fully waterproof for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions.
How do I maintain the water repellency?
To maintain the water-repellent finish, wash the jacket according to the care label, avoiding fabric softeners. If the repellency diminishes over time, you can re-treat it with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for outdoor apparel.
Can this jacket be used for hiking or active sports?
Yes, its lightweight design, warmth, and water-repellent properties make it suitable for various outdoor activities and active sports in mild to cool conditions, offering good freedom of movement.
What material is the jacket made from?
The outer shell and insulation are made from Nylon, providing durability, lightness, and insulation.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the jacket features zipped pockets, ensuring that your child's belongings are kept secure during play and movement.
Is it safe for walking in the dark?
The jacket includes reflective trims, which enhance visibility in low-light conditions, adding a layer of safety for evening walks or early morning school runs. However, always ensure your child has adequate additional visibility aids when walking in the dark.
What age range is this jacket for?
This jacket is part of the "Junior Embrie" line, designed for children. Specific sizing will be indicated on the product tag or size guide.
Troubleshooting
Jacket's water repellency seems to diminish.
Ensure the jacket is cleaned according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Over time, DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatments can wear off; consider reapplying a suitable DWR spray specifically designed for outerwear, following product instructions.
Jacket insulation feels flat or clumpy after washing.
Tumble dry on a low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up clumps and restore the loft of the Warmloft insulation. Pause the dryer periodically to manually fluff the jacket.
Zippers are sticking or difficult to move.
Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth using a small brush or cloth. Apply a specialized zipper lubricant (like zipper wax) sparingly to the teeth to improve movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no special setup. Simply put it on! It is designed for kids (unisex) and made from Nylon.
For care, always check the garment's internal care label for specific instructions to maintain its water-repellent finish and insulation properties. Generally, for nylon jackets with synthetic insulation:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to help fluff up the insulation, or air dry flat away from direct sunlight. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Ironing: Do not iron.
- Bleach/Dry Clean: Do not bleach or dry clean.
Regular cleaning helps maintain the jacket's performance and longevity.
