FAQs
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood is integrated and elasticated for maximum protection against wind and rain.
Can this jacket be tumble dried?
Refer to the care label, but generally, low-heat tumble drying can help reactivate the DWR finish after washing.
Is the jacket suitable for snowy conditions?
While the jacket is waterproof and warm, it is primarily designed for rain and wind. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, we recommend layering additional thermal clothing underneath.
Does it have internal pockets?
The jacket features two secure zipped side pockets for convenience.
How should I choose the right size?
The sizes are listed by age group (e.g., 7-8 years). We recommend checking the size guide against your child's current height and build for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Inner fleece feels damp after long exposure to rain
Ensure all zips and cuffs are fully secured. If the dampness persists, the jacket may have reached its limit for waterproof saturation or requires a fresh DWR coating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Regatta Hillain Jacket, always follow the garment's wash care label. It is recommended to machine wash on a cool setting using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear, avoiding heavy detergents or fabric softeners that can strip the water-repellent finish. After several washes, you may need to apply a specialized DWR re-proofer spray to the outer shell to maintain its performance. Store the jacket hanging in a cool, dry place to ensure the fleece lining remains fluffy and the membrane stays intact.
