FAQs

What does ISOTEX 20000 mean?

ISOTEX 20000 is Regatta's performance fabric technology that offers excellent waterproofing and breathability. The '20000' refers to its hydrostatic head rating, meaning it can withstand a column of water 20,000mm high before leaking, and its breathability rating of 20,000 g/m²/24 hours.

How should I wash the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is a grown-on technical hood with high collar and elastication for weather coverage. It is not adjustable via drawcords.

Can I remove the hood?

The hood is a grown-on design, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket and cannot be removed.

What are the reflective trims for?

The 360 reflective trims are designed to enhance visibility in low-light conditions, improving the child's safety when outdoors during dawn, dusk, or in poor weather.

What is the printed name label for?

The printed name label is a practical feature for school or group activities, allowing the jacket to be easily identified. It is suitable for ages up to 8 years.

What other colors and sizes are available?

This jacket is available in various colors and sizes. Please refer to the product listing or manufacturer's website for a full range of options.

Troubleshooting

Jacket no longer seems waterproof

Ensure the durable water repellent (DWR) finish is still effective. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for technical outerwear after washing and drying according to care instructions.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Lubricate with a silicone-based lubricant or wax.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This could indicate a breathability issue. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can block pores. Check that the ventilation (if any) is open. If the issue persists, the DWR may need refreshing.
