Full details

The Regatta Highton Monochrome Waterproof Jacket is an ideal choice for active kids who need reliable protection during outdoor play and school commutes. Engineered with premium Isotex 20000 fabric, this jacket offers a high-performance blend of waterproof, windproof, and breathable defenses, making it suitable for unpredictable weather. While it provides excellent coverage and flexibility, it is important to note that the lightweight stretch material is optimized for movement, which may require careful cleaning to maintain its long-term water-repellent finish.

FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed with Isotex 20000 fabric and taped seams, providing a high level of protection against heavy rain.

Can my child wear this in the snow?

It is waterproof and windproof, making it suitable for light snow, though it is not a thick insulated parka and may require layering underneath for sub-zero temperatures.

What is the best way to clean the jacket?

Use a specialized technical detergent on a cool, gentle cycle. Never use fabric softener.

Does it have a hood?

Yes, the jacket includes an adjustable hood to provide coverage during inclement weather.

Are the pockets large enough for a phone or keys?

The jacket features four zip-secured pockets which are ideal for storing small essential items securely.

Troubleshooting

Water begins soaking into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish has worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.

Breathability feels reduced during activity

Check if the inner mesh lining or fabric is clogged with dirt. A regular wash using technical cleaner will clear the pores of the membrane.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Clean any grit or debris from the teeth of the zipper and run a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to act as a lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof and windproof rating (Isotex 20000)
  • Comfortable inner mesh lining for breathability
  • Highly adjustable fit at the hood, cuffs, and hem
  • Four zip-secured pockets for secure storage
  • Lightweight stretch fabric design

Cons

  • Requires regular re-treatment to maintain the water-repellent finish
  • Not intended for extreme high-altitude alpine conditions
  • Requires specific care to protect the waterproof membrane

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your jacket, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical fabric detergent. Avoid standard laundry soaps or fabric softeners, as these can strip the waterproof coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators. If the care label permits, a very low-heat tumble dry can sometimes help reactivate the water-repellent finish.
  3. Re-proofing: If you notice water no longer beads on the surface of the jacket, apply a dedicated spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to maintain its performance.
  4. Storage: Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area rather than folding it tightly for extended periods to prevent creasing the membrane.
