FAQs

Is this jacket insulated for warmth?

No, the Regatta Professional Kids Pro Stormbreak is a shell jacket. It provides waterproof and windproof protection but does not offer insulation. It is designed to be worn over warm under layers for comfort in colder conditions.

What age range is this jacket suitable for?

This specific jacket variant is sized for children aged 3-4 years. Other sizes may be available for different age groups.

Are the matching trousers included?

No, the coordinating Regatta Stormbreak trousers are sold separately to allow for mixing and matching or purchasing as needed.

Is the hood removable?

No, the jacket features an integral hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket for consistent head protection.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproof properties?

> Info needed: Specific care instructions are not provided in the product description. Always check the garment's care label for the most accurate washing instructions. Generally, waterproof polyester jackets benefit from being washed with a technical cleaner and air-dried to preserve their DWR finish.

What does 'taped seams' mean for waterproofing?

Taped seams mean that the stitching lines on the inside of the jacket, where water could potentially seep through, have been sealed with a waterproof tape. This provides an extra barrier, significantly enhancing the jacket's overall waterproof performance.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer repels water effectively.

Over time, dirt, oils, and repeated washing can affect the jacket's Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. Clean the jacket according to care instructions (refer to label). If the issue persists, consider applying a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof outerwear.

Reflective trim seems less visible.

Ensure the reflective trim is clean and free of mud or dirt. Gently wipe it with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the reflective material.

Elasticated cuffs feel too tight or loose.

The elasticated cuffs are designed to offer a snug fit to seal out elements. If they feel uncomfortable, double-check the jacket size. Elastic will naturally relax slightly with wear, but if it feels overly stretched, consider if the jacket size is appropriate for the child's build.

Care

> Info needed: Specific washing and drying instructions for this product are not provided in the product description. Always refer to the care label sewn into the garment for detailed instructions.

General care for waterproof polyester jackets often includes:

  • Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle.
  • Use a technical cleaner specifically designed for waterproof outdoor wear, rather than standard detergent, to preserve the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
  • Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the fabric's breathability and waterproofing.
  • Do not bleach.
  • Tumble dry on low heat or line dry away from direct heat.
  • If the waterproofing seems to diminish over time, a re-proofing treatment can be applied.
