FAQs

Is the Regatta Hurdle Jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, the jacket features Isotex 10000 fabric, which is designed to be highly waterproof, providing reliable protection against rain and wet conditions.

What kind of insulation does the jacket use?

It is insulated with Thermoguard, a synthetic insulation known for its warmth-to-weight ratio and ability to retain heat even when damp.

Are the reflective trims permanent?

Yes, the reflective trims are integrated into the jacket's design to enhance visibility and safety, especially in low-light conditions. They are designed to last the lifetime of the jacket with proper care.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

The jacket is available in UK children's size 10 (as per this specific product variant). For precise sizing, it's recommended to consult Regatta's official sizing chart, taking into account your child's measurements to ensure a comfortable fit that allows for layering.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold winter weather?

While the Thermoguard insulation provides good warmth, for very cold winter conditions, it is advisable to layer effectively underneath the jacket with appropriate base and mid-layers to maximize thermal retention.

Is the hood adjustable or removable?

The product description mentions a 'comfortable hood' for weather protection. `> Info needed: Specific details on hood adjustability or removability are not provided in the available product information.`

Troubleshooting

Water isn't beading on the jacket surface.

This indicates the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need re-activation or re-application. Try tumble drying on a low heat after washing to re-activate the existing DWR. If this doesn't work, consider applying a wash-in or spray-on DWR product specifically designed for waterproof outerwear.

Jacket doesn't seem warm enough.

Ensure your child is wearing appropriate layers underneath for the temperature. The jacket provides insulation, but base and mid-layers are crucial for extreme cold. Also, ensure the jacket is properly zipped up and the hood is used to prevent heat loss.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.

Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth using a small brush. A zipper lubricant (specifically for outdoor gear) can also help improve smooth operation. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Reflective trims appear dull or dirty.

Wash the jacket according to care instructions to remove accumulated dirt. Avoid using harsh scrubbing brushes on the reflective material to prevent damage.

Jacket makes a rustling sound when worn.

This is often characteristic of waterproof fabrics. It's normal and typically reduces slightly with wear. It does not affect the jacket's performance.

Care Instructions

Proper care will extend the life and performance of your jacket. While specific instructions should always be checked on the product's care label upon purchase, here are general guidelines for Polyester waterproof insulated jackets:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical wash designed for waterproof fabrics, or a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can impair the jacket's waterproof properties. Wash at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C).
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or preferably hang to air dry away from direct heat. Excessive heat can damage the waterproof coating and insulation.
  3. Storage: Store the jacket clean and dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing it for long periods to maintain the loft of the Thermoguard insulation.
  4. Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, you may consider re-applying a DWR treatment designed for outerwear. `> Info needed: Specific re-proofing recommendations.`
