Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Kid's Pack It Over Trousers are designed for active children who need reliable protection from the elements. Their key benefit is providing lightweight, waterproof, and breathable coverage, ensuring comfort during outdoor play or travel. A potential consideration is that while they offer great weather protection, they are unlined, so layering might be necessary for warmth in colder conditions. These overtrousers are made from Isolite polyamide fabric, feature an elastic waistband for a snug fit, and conveniently fold into their own bag for easy storage and portability.

FAQs
Are these overtrousers suitable for very cold weather?
The Regatta Kid's Pack It Over Trousers are primarily designed for waterproofing and breathability. They are unlined, so for cold weather, it is recommended to layer warmer clothing underneath for insulation.
How do I fold the trousers into their bag?
The trousers are designed to be folded into a small pouch, often formed by folding them inwards. Refer to the product tag or online resources for specific folding instructions if needed.
What does 'Isolite 5000' mean?
'Isolite 5000' refers to Regatta's proprietary waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '5000' typically indicates a waterproof rating of 5,000mm and a breathability rating of 5,000g/m²/24 hours.
Can these overtrousers be worn for sports?
Yes, the lightweight and breathable nature of the fabric makes them suitable for active play and sports where protection from rain is needed. The taped seams ensure full waterproofing.
How do I re-waterproof the trousers?
You can use a spray-on or wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment designed for outdoor clothing. Follow the product instructions carefully for application.
What is the breathability rating?
The breathability rating for this fabric is 5,000g/m²/24 hours, meaning it allows a good amount of moisture vapor to escape, helping to keep the wearer comfortable.
Troubleshooting
Overtrousers feel damp inside despite no rain.
This could be due to perspiration. Ensure the child is not overheating and consider wearing moisture-wicking layers underneath. Check that the breathability rating is sufficient for the activity level.
Water appears to be soaking through the fabric.
The durable water repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Try re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for waterproof and breathable fabrics. Ensure seams are still sealed.
Elastic waistband feels too loose or too tight.
The elastic waistband is designed for comfort. If it feels too loose, ensure the correct size is being worn. If too tight, it may indicate an incorrect size selection.
