Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Hot Shot II is a versatile, lightweight mid-layer designed for active kids who enjoy outdoor play and hiking. It provides essential thermal warmth without adding unnecessary bulk, making it perfect for layering during transitional weather; however, because it is a lightweight fleece, it is best suited for mild to cool conditions rather than extreme cold or heavy wind.

FAQs
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, the Regatta Hot Shot II is made of fleece and is not waterproof. It is designed to be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof jacket.
Can this be worn on its own?
Yes, it is excellent as an outer layer on cool, dry days, but it is primarily designed as a mid-layer for layering.
Does it have pockets?
This model features a streamlined design focused on warmth and movement, and does not typically include external pockets.
Is the material machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a cool, gentle cycle. Always refer to the care label for specific instructions.
How do I choose the right size?
The size 5-6 indicates it is designed for children within that age bracket. For the best fit, check your child's current height and weight against the brand's standard size chart.
Troubleshooting
The zip feels stiff or stuck
Check the fabric lining behind the zipper to ensure no fleece fibers are caught in the teeth. If it remains stiff, gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush.
Visible lint or bobbling on the surface
While the fabric is anti-pill, using a gentle fabric shaver can remove any surface fuzz that accumulates after heavy use.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Soft, comfortable brushed lining
- Easy-to-use half-zip for temperature control
- Lightweight and ideal for layering

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a simple pull-over garment, no setup is required. It is highly compatible with most waterproof outer shells or windbreakers, fitting easily underneath without creating awkward bulk. To maintain the integrity of the fleece:
- Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the moisture-wicking properties of the fleece material.
- Hang dry whenever possible to prevent shrinkage and maintain the softness of the brushed lining.
- Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as it can damage the synthetic fibers.
