Regatta Puddle IV Waterproof Puddle Suit - Pink, 1-2 Years

The Regatta Puddle IV is designed as a waterproof and breathable outer layer. For very cold weather, suitable insulating layers should be worn underneath, as the suit itself does not provide significant thermal insulation.

`Isolite 10000` refers to Regatta's lightweight waterproof and breathable fabric technology. It indicates a waterproof rating of 10,000mm hydrostatic head (meaning it can withstand 10,000mm of water before leaking) and a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24 hours (how much water vapor can pass through the fabric in 24 hours).

While many polyester waterproof garments can be machine washed on a gentle cycle, it is critical to always check the specific care label inside your suit for the manufacturer's precise instructions. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners.

Yes, the Regatta Puddle IV features a reflective trim to enhance visibility, especially in low-light conditions, adding a layer of safety for your child.

The suit is constructed from Polyester, a durable and water-resistant fabric commonly used in outdoor performance wear.

No, the suit features a grown-on hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the suit for continuous protection.

First, check for any visible tears or damage to the fabric. Ensure the suit is properly sized; an ill-fitting suit can allow water ingress. Verify that the DWR finish is still effective (water should bead off); if not, consider reapplication. Also, ensure internal layers are breathable to avoid condensation buildup.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. Try cleaning the suit according to the care label, as dirt can mask the DWR. If the issue persists, consider re-treating the suit with a spray-on or wash-in DWR product suitable for waterproof fabrics.

Even with its breathable fabric, ensure your child is wearing appropriate base layers for the weather. The suit is an outer shell, and heavy clothing underneath in mild weather can lead to overheating. Adjust internal layers as needed.

Ensure the child's inner clothing isn't bunching up. The elasticated cuffs and waist are designed for a snug fit but should not be overly tight. If sizing is correct, practice smooth movements when dressing and undressing.
