Full details
The Regatta Cera Softshell Jacket is designed for active children, offering weatherproof protection with a sporty look perfect for outdoor adventures. Its key benefit is providing lasting protection against the elements thanks to its water-repellent finish. A potential consideration is that while water-repellent, it may not offer full waterproofing for prolonged heavy rain. This jacket is made from durable Polyester Softshell fabric, ideal for walks, playtime, or casual wear.

How do I wash the jacket?

How should I care for the water-repellent feature?
To maintain the water-repellent finish, avoid using fabric softeners during washing and consider using a specific re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment periodically, following the product's instructions.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems reduced.
Ensure the jacket is clean and free from dirt. Reapply a water-repellent treatment using a spray or wash-in product suitable for softshell fabrics, following the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing.
Jacket feels stiff after washing.
Check that you have followed the care instructions, particularly regarding washing temperature and avoiding bleach. A low-heat tumble dry can help restore some softness. Ensure the jacket is not over-dried.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Check the zipper for any fabric caught in it. Gently try to free any obstructions. If the zipper is still stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth.
