FAQs

What does 'Isotex 20000' mean?

Isotex 20000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '20000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm, meaning it can withstand water pressure up to that level before leaking, and a breathability rating of 20,000g/m²/24 hours, indicating how much water vapor can pass through it.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is waterproof and windproof, providing a good outer shell. For very cold weather, layering thermal base and mid-layers underneath is recommended for warmth.

How do I clean the printed name label?

The printed name label is designed for children up to age 8. It is integrated into the garment and should be cared for as per the main washing instructions. Avoid harsh scrubbing directly on the label.

Can the hood be removed?

No, the hood is a grown-on, fixed technical hood designed to offer continuous weather protection.

What is the difference between this jacket and a shell jacket?

This Highton jacket is a type of shell jacket, specifically a waterproof and breathable one. Shell jackets are designed as an outer layer to protect against weather elements like rain and wind, often without built-in insulation.

Is the jacket made entirely from recycled materials?

The jacket is made from 100% recycled polyester fabric, contributing to environmental sustainability.

What age range is the '5-6 Years' size suitable for?

The '5-6 Years' size is typically designed for children who fall within that age bracket, but it's always best to check the specific size guide provided by Regatta for detailed measurements.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer beading water effectively

Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish following product instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before application.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly and try lubricating with a silicone-based lubricant or wax.

Water is leaking through seams

This may indicate seam tape failure. Contact customer service if the jacket is still under warranty. For out-of-warranty items, professional seam sealing may be an option.

Jacket feels clammy inside

Ensure all vents (if any) are open. Check that the internal lining is not wet from sweat. Washing the jacket may help restore breathability.
