Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Pack It III waterproof jacket is designed for active kids who enjoy outdoor adventures in any weather. Its key benefit is providing reliable waterproof and breathable protection while remaining lightweight and packable. A potential caveat is that while waterproof, it's best suited for moderate rain and wind rather than extreme downpours. The jacket features Isotex 5000 fabric, taped seams, and a packable design, making it ideal for hiking, walking, and festivals.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Regatta Pack It III jacket is designed primarily for waterproofing and wind resistance. It is not insulated, so for cold weather, it should be worn as an outer shell over warm layers like fleece or thermals.

How do I ensure the jacket lasts a long time?

Follow the care instructions carefully: machine wash at 40°C, avoid bleach and fabric conditioner, and tumble dry on a low heat. Regular cleaning helps maintain the fabric's performance.

What does 'Isotex 5000' mean?

Isotex 5000 refers to Regatta's own waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '5000' typically indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 5000mm, meaning it can withstand 5000mm of water pressure before leaking, and a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24h, indicating how much water vapor can pass through the fabric.

Can this jacket be worn by boys and girls?

Yes, the jacket is unisex and suitable for any child regardless of gender.

How small does the jacket pack down?

The jacket packs into its own bag, making it very compact and easy to carry in a backpack or even a large pocket. The exact packed size will vary slightly but is designed for maximum portability.

What is the best way to dry the jacket after washing?

The best way to dry the jacket is by tumble drying it on a low heat setting. This helps to maintain the water-repellent finish on the fabric.

Troubleshooting

Jacket does not seem waterproof anymore.

The water repellency may have diminished over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash using a specific technical wash to restore the fabric's performance. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-treating.

Jacket feels damp inside, even when it's not raining.

This could be due to a lack of breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean and that no residue from detergents or fabric softeners is blocking the fabric's pores. Avoid using fabric conditioner when washing.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it's still stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
