The Regatta Childrens/Kids Farbank II Waterproof Jacket in Green, size 9-10, is designed for active young boys who need protection from the elements. Its key benefit is superior waterproofing and windproofing, keeping them dry and comfortable during outdoor adventures. A potential caveat for younger children (under 8) is the inclusion of a printed name label, which may not be suitable for all. This jacket offers a warm, insulated layer with a breathable and water-repellent finish, featuring a grown-on sherpa-lined hood and adjustable cuffs and hem for a secure fit.

The jacket provides good warmth with its Warmloft insulation and is waterproof and windproof, making it suitable for cold and snowy conditions when layered appropriately. However, it is not a heavy-duty snowsuit and may require additional thermal layers for extreme cold.
Refer to the size guide provided by the retailer or manufacturer. For this specific jacket, size 9-10 years is indicated. Ensure the child can comfortably move their arms and that the sleeves cover their wrists when arms are extended.
No, the hood is a grown-on feature and is permanently attached to the jacket. It does, however, feature a sherpa lining for added warmth.
Isotex 10000 indicates that the fabric has a hydrostatic head rating of 10,000mm, meaning it can withstand a column of water 10,000mm high before leaking. It also means the fabric is breathable, allowing 10,000g/m²/24hrs of water vapor to pass through.
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It is a coating applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated.
Machine wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. After washing and drying, consider using a re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment to maintain the DWR finish.
While listed as 'Male', the design and features are generally unisex and would be suitable for any child who needs a waterproof and warm jacket. The 'Green' color is also a versatile choice.
Clean the jacket thoroughly according to care instructions. Apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in product, following the manufacturer's guidelines, to restore the DWR finish and water repellency.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little soapy water. Lubricate the zipper with a wax-based product (like a candle or beeswax) or a graphite pencil.
Ensure the jacket is properly zipped up and the hood and hem are adjusted to prevent drafts. Consider layering appropriate warm clothing underneath, such as a fleece or thermal top, as the jacket is designed to block external elements rather than generate heat on its own.
Gently brush the sherpa lining with a soft brush after drying to restore its fluffiness. Avoid high heat tumble drying, which can damage the lining.
This jacket requires no assembly and is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Its primary compatibility is with outdoor activities and variable weather conditions.
