Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket has a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light rain and splashes. It is not designed for heavy or prolonged downpours and may not keep the wearer dry in such conditions.

What age group is this jacket for?

This jacket is designed for children (kids' sizing), with this specific model being size 9-10 years.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

The jacket is lightweight and primarily offers wind and light rain protection. For cold weather, it should be worn as an outer shell over warmer insulating layers.

How should I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 40 degrees Celsius with zips fastened and by washing it separately. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on low heat and iron on a low setting.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, the Regatta Hillpack Hooded Jacket is available in several other colors and sizes, including Brown, Pink, Green, and Black.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is grown-on and elasticated, providing a snug fit around the face. It does not feature drawstrings or adjustable toggles for a tighter fit.

What does 'Durable Water Repellent Finish' mean?

It means the fabric has been treated to repel water. Water will bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep the wearer dry from light rain. This treatment can wear off over time and may need to be reapplied.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer water-repellent

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need reapplication. Clean the jacket thoroughly and use a waterproofing spray suitable for synthetic fabrics, following the product's instructions. Avoid fabric softeners during washing as they can affect the DWR treatment.

Zip is stiff or stuck

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zip. Gently try to move the zip up and down. You can use a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax on the zip teeth to help lubricate it.

Reflective trim is peeling

Avoid high heat when washing and drying. If minor peeling occurs, a low-heat iron may help secure it, but avoid direct ironing on the trim itself. Further damage may require professional repair or replacement.
