FAQs

Is the Regatta Lofthouse Insulated Jacket fully waterproof?

No, it features a water-repellent finish, which provides protection against light rain and drizzles but is not fully waterproof for heavy downpours.

What is Warmloft insulation?

Warmloft is a synthetic insulation developed by Regatta designed to trap heat efficiently, providing cosy warmth and comfort, even in damp conditions, without adding excessive bulk.

How do I clean this jacket?

It is generally recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, then tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not bleach or iron. Always check the garment's specific care label for detailed instructions.

What age is this jacket suitable for?

This specific variant of the Regatta Lofthouse Insulated Jacket is sized for children aged 3-4 years. Other sizes may be available for different age groups.

Are there pockets on this jacket?

Yes, the jacket is equipped with zipped pockets, providing secure storage for your child's small items.

Can this jacket be used for very cold winter weather?

The jacket provides cosy warmth for chilly conditions. For very cold winter weather, it is recommended to layer it with additional thermal clothing underneath for optimal warmth.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem warm enough.

Ensure appropriate base layers are worn underneath. Check the fit; a jacket that is too large can allow cold air to enter and reduce insulation effectiveness. For very cold conditions, additional thermal layers are recommended.

Water doesn't bead off the fabric anymore.

The water-repellent finish may have worn off or been compromised by dirt or detergent residue. Clean the jacket as per care instructions. If the issue persists, apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment spray, specifically designed for outdoor clothing, to the clean, dry jacket.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, gently apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone spray or the graphite from a pencil lead) to the teeth and work the zipper up and down.

Reflective trims appear dull or less effective.

The reflective trims might be covered in dirt or mud. Gently clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing, which can damage the reflective material.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the jacket's performance and longevity. While specific instructions are not provided with the product data, general care for polyester insulated jackets includes:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Use a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as it can impair the water-repellent finish and insulation.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, hang dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid high heat, which can damage the synthetic fibres and insulation.
  3. Bleaching/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as direct heat can melt the polyester fabric and insulation.
  4. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  5. Water Repellency: Over time and with washing, the water-repellent finish may diminish. You can restore it using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray specifically designed for outdoor garments. Follow the product instructions for application.
