Product Information

Full details

This guide is for parents and guardians seeking a durable, waterproof jacket for children aged 9-10 years for everyday wear, school, and outdoor activities. The key benefit is reliable protection from rain and wind, thanks to its Isotex 20000 stretch fabric and taped seams. A minor caveat is the printed name label is only effective up to age 8. The jacket features fully waterproof and breathable fabric, a technical hood, multiple zipped pockets, adjustable cuffs and hem, and reflective trims for visibility.

FAQs

What does Isotex 20000 mean?

Isotex 20000 indicates that the fabric has a hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm, meaning it can withstand water pressure equivalent to 20,000mm before water penetrates. It also signifies good breathability.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

This is a waterproof and windproof jacket. For cold weather, it is recommended to layer base and mid-layers underneath for insulation. It is not an insulated winter coat on its own.

How do I clean the printed name label?

The printed name label is designed for identification and is not intended for rigorous cleaning. Avoid washing the jacket on excessively hot cycles or ironing directly over the label to preserve it.

What is the purpose of the high collar?

The high collar on the hood provides extra protection for the neck and lower face against wind and rain, especially when the hood is worn up.

Are the reflective trims durable?

The reflective trims are designed to enhance visibility. While generally durable, excessive abrasion or improper washing may reduce their reflectivity over time.

What sizes are available for this jacket?

This specific product is for size 9-10 years. The Regatta Highton jacket is available in a range of junior sizes.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket using a technical wash and then apply a suitable DWR re-proofer, following the product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax (like candle wax or lip balm) or a graphite pencil lead to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly.

Hood is not staying up.

Ensure the drawcord around the hood is tightened appropriately. Check that the hood is fully extended and not obstructed.

Jacket feels damp inside, but not wet.

This could be due to condensation if the jacket is not zipped up fully or if the child is very active. Ensure proper ventilation by unzipping slightly if needed, or check that the garment is adequately breathable for the activity level.
