FAQs

What age group is this jacket designed for?

This jacket is designed for kids, specifically in the age range of 5-6 years for this particular size variant.

Is the water-repellent finish permanent?

The water-repellent finish is durable but not permanent. It can diminish over time with wear and washing. Reapplication of a DWR treatment is recommended to restore its effectiveness.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold, snowy weather?

This jacket provides lightweight warmth and is suitable for mild to cool conditions. For very cold or snowy weather, it may be best used as a mid-layer with a more insulated and waterproof outer shell.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to standard children's UK sizing charts and compare them with the garment's measurements if available. This variant is a UK size 5-6.

What material is the insulation made of?

The insulation is premium synthetic down, designed to provide lightweight warmth.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

Does this jacket come in other sizes or colours?

This particular listing is for the Blue, Floral pattern in size 5-6 years. Regatta often produces similar styles in various sizes and patterns; please check other listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not as warm as expected.

Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully and that there are no large gaps. For colder weather, consider layering additional clothing underneath.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor fabrics. For heavy rain, a more waterproof garment may be needed.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Check for any fabric caught in the teeth. You can apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil to the zipper teeth to help lubricate it.

Garment has lost its shape after washing.

Ensure you followed the washing and drying instructions carefully. Avoid high heat drying and do not over-agitate the garment during washing. Reshape the jacket while damp and allow it to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear upon purchase. It is compatible with standard children's outerwear practices. To maintain the jacket's performance and appearance:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the water-repellent finish and insulation.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, a very cool iron can be used *away* from printed areas, but it is generally not recommended.
  4. Cleaning the Water-Repellent Finish: For best results, re-apply a DWR treatment after several washes to maintain water repellency.
