Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Highton Waterproof Jacket is designed for active kids who enjoy outdoor exploration, from daily school commutes to weekend hiking trails. This technical jacket offers a primary benefit of high-level weather protection through its breathable and waterproof Isotex 20000 fabric, ensuring children stay dry and comfortable in varied conditions. The main caveat is that as a technical performance garment, it is best suited for layered use rather than casual, non-active wear, and users should ensure the correct size for proper movement during activities.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the hood detachable?

No, the jacket features a grown-on technical hood that is permanently attached to the collar for better weather sealing.

Does this jacket have insulation?

The Highton is a shell jacket. It features a mesh and taffeta lining for comfort and breathability but is not insulated; it is designed for layering with fleeces or mid-layers.

Can I wash this in a standard washing machine?

Yes, it is machine washable, but you must use a gentle cycle and a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear to protect the fabric technology.

Are the seams waterproof?

Yes, the jacket is constructed with taped seams to ensure water does not leak through the needle holes during heavy rain.

What does 20,000 breathable rating mean?

It means the fabric can allow 20,000 grams of water vapor to escape through a square meter of fabric over 24 hours, making it highly effective at preventing overheating.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to soak into the outer fabric

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore beading.

Moisture buildup inside the jacket

Ensure the child is wearing appropriate moisture-wicking base layers; cotton layers underneath trap sweat and prevent the membrane from breathing effectively.

Zipper is sticking

Check for fabric stuck in the track or dried mud/grit. Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and use a silicone-based zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the waterproof membrane, always follow the care label instructions. Machine wash the jacket on a cool cycle using a non-detergent technical cleaner, as standard soaps can strip away the durable water-repellent (DWR) coating. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleaching agents. For drying, a low-temperature tumble dry or air drying is recommended; heat can help re-activate the DWR finish, but excessive heat may damage the taped seams. Check the jacket periodically for debris in the zippers to ensure smooth operation, and store the garment hanging in a dry, ventilated area.
