FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It features a durable water repellent (DWR) finish, which makes it water-resistant in light rain. It is not fully waterproof and should not be used as a primary raincoat in heavy downpours.
How do I choose the right size?
This model is sized for children (UK 3-4). We recommend checking the child's chest and height measurements against the standard Regatta sizing guide to ensure a comfortable fit that allows for layering.
Can this be machine washed?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend a cool, gentle cycle and washing with the zip closed to protect the garment.
What is Warmloft insulation?
Warmloft is a synthetic insulation technology that mimics the properties of natural down, providing high warmth-to-weight ratios even when damp, without the allergens associated with real down.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is a 'grown-on' style, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket collar.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks.
Ensure the zip guard fabric is not caught in the track. If the zip remains stiff, rub a small amount of graphite or candle wax along the teeth to lubricate it.
Jacket is losing its water-repellent properties.
After several washes, the DWR treatment may wear off. You can restore this by applying a spray-on or wash-in re-waterproofing treatment designed for synthetic outdoor gear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a ready-to-wear garment, there is no assembly required. To maintain the effectiveness of the Warmloft insulation and the water-repellent finish, follow these care steps:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If tumble drying is necessary, use a cool setting to avoid damaging the synthetic padding.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape and loft over time.
- Compatibility: The jacket layers well over base layers or lightweight fleece, but its slim-profile design works best when worn as a standalone outer layer.
