Regatta Junior Andreson Hybrid Quilted Jacket - Purple

The jacket features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which helps to repel light rain and moisture. However, it is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy or prolonged rainfall.

Machine wash at 30°C, using a mild process. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Close all fasteners before washing and wash dark and light colours separately.

Warmloft is a synthetic insulation technology that mimics the warmth and loft of down feathers but performs better when wet. It provides excellent warmth without adding significant weight or bulk to the garment.

The Extol Stretch panels are designed for flexibility and breathability. They are typically made from a polyester/elastane blend and are not the primary source of water repellency for the jacket. The main water-repellent treatment is applied to the body fabric.

The Junior Andreson Hybrid Jacket is available in various kids' UK sizes, including options like 5-6 years, 7 years, 9-10 years, 10 years, 13 Years, 14 Years, and 15-16 Years, depending on the specific colorway.

While the Warmloft insulation provides good warmth for its weight, for extremely cold conditions, it is best worn as part of a layering system, combined with a warm mid-layer (like fleece) and potentially an outer shell if needed.

Yes, a printed name label is included inside the jacket for children up to age 8, which is helpful for identification at school or during group activities.

Consider layering the jacket over a warmer base layer or fleece for colder conditions. Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully.

The jacket has a water-repellent finish, not a fully waterproof coating. For heavy rain, a waterproof outer shell is recommended. Reapplying a water-repellent treatment may help restore performance.

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth can help smooth operation.

Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls. This helps to re-distribute the insulation and restore loft.
