Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Hillpack Hooded Jacket is designed for active children who need lightweight, weather-resistant outerwear. Its key benefit is providing protection from light rain and wind, making it ideal for everyday wear and outdoor adventures. A potential caveat is that it is best suited for milder conditions rather than heavy downpours or extreme cold. This jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, a grown-on hood with stretch binding, and two zipped side pockets.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can resist light rain and water splashes. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.

What is the main benefit of the DWR finish?

The DWR finish helps water bead up and roll off the fabric surface, keeping the wearer drier in light rain and preventing the fabric from becoming waterlogged.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

This jacket is lightweight and primarily designed for protection against wind and light rain. It offers minimal insulation and is best layered over warmer clothing for colder conditions.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius on a gentle cycle with all fasteners closed. Avoid bleach, high heat drying, and dry cleaning. Hang to dry or tumble dry on low heat.

Are there other color options available?

Yes, this jacket is available in other colors such as Brown and Pink, and sometimes in different shades of Blue and Green. Please check the product listings for available variants.

What does 'Grown On Hood' mean?

'Grown On Hood' refers to a hood that is permanently attached to the main body of the jacket, as opposed to a detachable hood.

Does the jacket have reflective elements for safety?

Yes, the jacket includes reflective trim to enhance visibility in low-light conditions, making it safer for children.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency decreasing

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment after washing according to product instructions.

Zip is stiff or difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zip. Gently work the zip back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zip teeth.

Jacket feels a bit tight after washing

Check the care label; ensure you followed the recommended washing temperature and drying method. Avoid high heat drying. If it's a sizing issue, consider if a larger size might be needed for growth.
