FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Regatta Stormbreak Waterproof Jacket is a shell jacket designed primarily for waterproofing. It offers minimal insulation on its own. For very cold weather, it should be worn over insulating layers like a fleece or warm sweater.

Does the jacket have any pockets?

Based on the product description, this jacket features a minimalist design focused on waterproofing and does not include external pockets.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

This specific variant is for children aged 3-4 years (UK sizing). We recommend choosing based on your child's current age and size, and consider sizing up slightly if you plan to wear thick layers underneath.

Can this jacket be tumble dried?

No, this jacket should not be tumble dried. Always air dry it away from direct heat to preserve the waterproof coating and fabric integrity.

What is Hydrafort fabric?

Hydrafort is Regatta's waterproof and windproof fabric technology. It provides a reliable barrier against rain and wind, ensuring the wearer stays dry and comfortable in wet conditions.

Is the jacket breathable?

The Hydrafort fabric is designed primarily for waterproofing and wind resistance. While it offers standard breathability for everyday use, it is not optimized for high-exertion activities where maximum breathability is required.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off.

The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-proof the jacket using a specialized DWR treatment spray or wash-in product designed for waterproof garments.

Jacket feels stiff or uncomfortable after washing.

Ensure you are using a non-biological detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, as these can leave residues. A second rinse cycle might help remove any lingering detergent.

The hood keeps falling off or doesn't provide enough coverage.

Ensure the hood is fully pulled up over the head. While integrated for basic protection, its design offers standard coverage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

Using the Regatta Stormbreak Waterproof Jacket is straightforward. Simply have your child wear it over their regular clothing. Pull up the integrated hood when rain begins to fall for extra protection.

Compatibility:

This jacket functions as an outer protective shell. It is designed to be worn over existing layers of clothing. For colder weather, pair it with fleece jackets or warm sweaters underneath. Its lightweight nature allows for comfortable layering without adding significant bulk. The "Black" colour family makes it compatible with a wide range of outfits.

Care:

Proper care helps maintain the jacket's waterproofing and extends its lifespan.

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (up to 30°C) with a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair the waterproof finish. Close all zips and fastenings before washing.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat. This helps preserve the integrity of the waterproof coating.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron.
  4. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  6. Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. If you notice water soaking into the fabric rather than beading off, you may need to re-proof the jacket with a suitable DWR treatment spray or wash-in product, following the product's instructions.
