Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Andreson Hybrid jacket is an ideal choice for active children who need reliable warmth and mobility during outdoor adventures. Combining lightweight Warmloft insulation with flexible Extol Stretch panels, this jacket provides an excellent balance of heat retention and freedom of movement. While it offers a water-repellent finish for changing weather, it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket, so it is best suited for layering or light showers rather than heavy downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, meaning it is resistant to light showers but is not fully waterproof.
Can this be worn under a winter coat?
Yes, its low-bulk design makes it an excellent mid-layer to provide extra warmth under a larger, waterproof winter shell.
How do I ensure I get the right size?
Refer to the specific UK children's size guide (e.g., Size 4) and measure your child's chest and height to match against the sizing chart.
Are the pockets deep enough for items?
The two zipped lower pockets are designed to hold small items securely while ensuring they do not fall out during active play.
Does it have a name label inside?
Yes, there is a dedicated name label inside the jacket, which is ideal for school use.
Troubleshooting
Water begins soaking into the fabric during rain
The DWR finish may have worn off; apply a water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment designed for hybrid garments.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Check for loose threads or grit in the teeth. A light application of a specialized zipper lubricant or a candle-wax pencil can help improve the glide.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the performance of the jacket, ensure you follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can compromise the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket whenever possible. If machine dried, use the lowest heat setting.
- Water Repellency: If the outer fabric stops beading water, consider applying a garment re-proofer to restore the durable water-repellent (DWR) coating.
- Storage: Use the internal name label to avoid loss at school. The jacket is highly compressible, allowing it to be packed down small into a backpack when not in use.
