Full details

This Regatta Kids' Hurdle Insulated Jacket in Blue is designed for active young adventurers who need reliable protection from the elements. Its key benefit is combining waterproof and insulating properties to keep children warm and dry during outdoor play. A potential consideration is that the adjustable hem is only included on sizes over 7 years. The jacket features Isotex 10000 fabric, Thermoguard insulation, reflective trims, and a comfortable hood, making it ideal for various weather conditions.

FAQs

What is Isotex 10000 fabric?

Isotex 10000 is a waterproof and breathable fabric technology used by Regatta. The '10000' rating indicates its hydrostatic head (waterproofness) and breathability capabilities, meaning it can withstand 10,000mm of water pressure and allows 10,000g of moisture vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours.

How do I know if I have the correct size?

Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for children's clothing. The jacket should fit comfortably over other layers without being too tight or too loose. For sizes over 7 years, check the adjustable hem for a better fit.

Can this jacket be used in very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket features Thermoguard insulation (120 g/m²) which provides warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering with additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.

Are the reflective trims durable?

The reflective trims are designed to enhance visibility. While generally durable, their effectiveness can be maintained by following the recommended washing and drying instructions and avoiding abrasive cleaning methods.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is fixed and elasticated for a comfortable fit, but it does not have separate adjustment toggles. It is designed to provide good coverage.

What does '62% polyester/38% recycled polyester' mean?

This indicates the fabric composition. A significant portion of the polyester used is recycled, contributing to sustainability efforts. The blend provides durability, water resistance, and insulation properties.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

The durable water repellency (DWR) may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor clothing after washing and drying. Ensure all seams are intact.

Child feels cold despite wearing the jacket

Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully and the cuffs and hem are adjusted correctly to prevent drafts. Consider layering additional warm clothing underneath, especially in very cold conditions.

Zips are stiff or difficult to use

Ensure the zip is clean and free from debris. Gently try to move the zip up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the teeth of the zip.

Jacket appears to be losing its shape after washing

Follow the care instructions precisely, particularly regarding washing temperature and drying methods. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, and do not iron the jacket.
