Regatta Puddle Suit - Blue, 12-18 Months

Isolite is Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The number (e.g., 5000 or 10000) refers to the hydrostatic head rating, indicating its level of waterproofness, and also to its breathability rating in grams per square meter per 24 hours. A 10,000g/m²/24 hours breathability rating means it allows 10,000 grams of water vapor to pass through a square meter of fabric in 24 hours, keeping your child comfortable.

The suit provides excellent waterproof and breathable protection. For very cold weather, it functions as an effective outer shell. You will need to layer appropriate warm clothing underneath to ensure your child stays warm, as the suit itself does not provide significant insulation.

This particular suit is sized for 12-18 Months. Regatta sizing is generally based on age. It is best to select the size that corresponds most closely to your child's current age and typical clothing size for the best fit and maximum effectiveness.

Yes, it can be used for any activity where protection from dirt, wind, or general mess is desired, such as messy play, gardening, or windy outdoor outings, even if it's not raining. Its breathable nature helps prevent overheating.

Taped seams are an essential feature for waterproof clothing. They involve sealing the stitching lines on the inside of the garment to prevent water from seeping through the tiny holes created by the needle during manufacturing, ensuring complete waterproof protection.

> Info needed: Specific care instructions should be found on the product's internal label. Typically, waterproof garments are machine washed on a gentle cycle with a technical wash or mild detergent, then line dried, to maintain their waterproof and breathable properties.

Check for any unnoticed tears or snags in the fabric. Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the elasticated cuffs are properly positioned over wrists and ankles. Verify the suit size is appropriate; an ill-fitting suit might allow water entry.

The suit is breathable, but consider the layers worn underneath. On milder days, a single, light layer may be sufficient. This suit is an outer shell and warmth comes from layers beneath it.

> Info needed: Specific washing instructions. Generally, harsh washing or abrasive contact can degrade reflective materials. Gentle washing is usually recommended to preserve such features.

> Info needed: Specific care instructions. DWR finishes can degrade over time or with improper washing. Re-application of a DWR treatment may be possible, but consult manufacturer guidelines first.
