FAQs
Is the Regatta Lofthouse bodywarmer waterproof?
It is designed as an insulating layer. While it offers protection from light elements, it is not considered a dedicated waterproof raincoat.
Can this be worn under a waterproof jacket?
Yes, its lightweight profile makes it an excellent mid-layer to be worn underneath a shell jacket for extra warmth.
What is the best way to determine the right size?
Sizes are based on the child's age group. We recommend checking your child's current clothing size to ensure the best fit over their usual layers.
How do I keep the insulation fluffy?
Regular, gentle washing and avoiding heavy compression during storage helps maintain the insulating loft of the padding.
Is this suitable for summer?
It is primarily designed for cooler weather. It may be too warm for peak summer temperatures, though it is handy for chilly summer evenings.
Troubleshooting
Padding feels clumped after washing
Once dry, gently shake the garment or use a clean tennis ball in the tumble dryer on a low, cool setting to redistribute the insulation.
Outer fabric looks dull
Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and avoid harsh chemicals. Shake out well after drying to restore the fabric finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The bodywarmer is designed for immediate use right out of the box. To maintain the loft of the padding and the integrity of the material, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners that can degrade insulating padding.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material damage.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping it compressed under heavy items for long periods to ensure it maintains its lofted warmth.
