Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Highton Monochrome Waterproof Jacket is designed for active kids who need reliable protection during outdoor adventures in wet and windy conditions. Utilizing advanced Isotex 20000 technology, this jacket offers a high level of waterproofing and breathability to keep children comfortable during play; however, because it is an outer layer, parents should plan to layer warmer garments underneath during particularly cold winter days.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

It provides excellent wind and rain protection, but it is a shell jacket. In winter, it should be worn over insulating layers like a fleece or sweater.

How do I wash the Highton Jacket?

Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners and bleaching agents, and always check the care label on the garment.

What does the 20000g/m² breathability rating mean?

It refers to the amount of water vapor that can pass through the fabric in 24 hours, indicating high-level breathability for active pursuits.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets have zippered closures, but they are designed to protect items from rain; they are not fully submersible or waterproof in extreme conditions.

Can I tumble dry the jacket?

It is generally recommended to air dry to protect the technical membrane. Check the internal care tag for specific manufacturer drying instructions.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking through the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Clean the jacket and apply a specialized DWR re-proofing spray.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to close

Check the track for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Gently clean with a soft brush and ensure no internal lining is obstructing the slider.

Condensation inside the jacket during activity

Ensure the wearer is not overdressed underneath; the jacket is breathable, but excessive base layers can trap heat and moisture faster than the fabric can release it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof and windproof protection
  • Highly breathable for active play
  • Multiple zippered pockets for secure storage
  • Adjustable features for a tailored, protective fit

Cons

  • Designed primarily as a shell, requires layering for extreme cold
  • Polyester material may require specific care to maintain water repellency
  • Limited to specific age-group sizing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the jacket's performance, ensure the zippers are fully closed and all adjustable cuffs are properly fitted before heading out. For cleaning, machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical fabric cleaner or a mild detergent; avoid using fabric softeners as they can impair the DWR finish. Periodically check if water still beads on the surface; if it begins to soak in, you may need to re-apply a DWR spray treatment to maintain the jacket's waterproofing integrity. Always air dry the jacket away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the waterproof membrane.
