FAQs

What is the 'Feather Free' insulation?

Feather Free refers to the premium synthetic down insulation used in the jacket. It provides warmth comparable to natural down but is hypoallergenic and maintains its insulating properties even when damp.

How do I know if the size is right for my child?

It is recommended to measure your child's chest and height and compare these to the Regatta sizing chart for children's outerwear. The jacket may run smaller than expected for some.

Is the jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is suitable for light rain or drizzle. For prolonged or heavy downpours, a waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

Can the hood be removed?

No, the hood is grown-on, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash inside out at 40°C with similar colors using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach and do not iron. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry.

What does the '37gsm' refer to?

GSM (Grams per Square Meter) refers to the weight of the fabric. A 37gsm fabric is very lightweight, contributing to the jacket's overall minimal weight.

Are there any adjustable features on the hood or cuffs?

The hood features elastication around the opening for a snug fit. The cuffs and hem also have stretch binding, but these are not adjustable.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper while holding the fabric taut. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) can be rubbed onto the zipper teeth as a lubricant.

Jacket has lost its water-repellent properties

Wash the jacket according to care instructions, then tumble dry on a low heat setting for a short period. This can sometimes reactivate the DWR finish. For a more robust solution, apply a DWR reproofing spray after washing.

Jacket appears to be shedding insulation

This is uncommon with synthetic fill. Ensure the jacket is not snagged on rough surfaces. If synthetic fibers are coming through the fabric, gently pull them back through from the inside, or carefully trim any loose fibers from the outside.

Jacket feels less warm after washing

Ensure the insulation is not clumped. After washing, ensure the jacket is dried thoroughly, preferably by tumble drying on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls to help redistribute the insulation evenly.
