FAQs

Is the Regatta Lofthouse Insulated Jacket fully waterproof?

No, it features a water-repellent finish, which means it will shed light rain and drizzle, but it is not designed to be fully waterproof in heavy downpours.

What is Warmloft insulation?

Warmloft is a synthetic insulation designed to provide excellent warmth without excessive bulk. It's lightweight, soft, and performs well even in damp conditions.

How do I wash this jacket?

Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low with tennis balls or air dry flat, fluffing regularly.

Are there reflective elements for safety?

Yes, the jacket includes reflective trims to enhance visibility in low-light conditions, improving safety during early mornings or evenings.

Can this jacket be worn by both boys and girls?

Yes, the Regatta Lofthouse Insulated Jacket has a Unisex design, making it suitable and stylish for both boys and girls.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is primarily made from durable Polyester, including the outer fabric and the Warmloft insulation.

What age group is this jacket suitable for?

This specific jacket is sized for kids aged 9-10 years.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem to be as warm as expected.

Ensure the jacket is clean and dry; a wet or dirty jacket can lose insulation properties. Check if any inner layers are too thin or if the jacket is too large, allowing cold air to circulate. Make sure the elasticated hood and zipped pockets are properly secured.

Water repellency seems to be diminishing.

The water-repellent finish can wear off with use and washing. Wash the jacket following the care instructions (avoiding fabric softener) and consider re-treating it with a suitable wash-in or spray-on durable water repellent (DWR) product designed for outerwear.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to use.

Gently try to lubricate the zipper teeth with a zipper lubricant, graphite pencil, or a small amount of petroleum jelly. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider. If the zipper is bent, gently try to straighten it, but avoid excessive force to prevent breakage.

Care Instructions

Proper care is essential to maintain the jacket's warmth and water-repellent properties.

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (max 30°C) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can impair the water-repellent finish and insulation performance.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help fluff up the Warmloft insulation and restore its loft. Alternatively, air dry flat, regularly shaking and fluffing the jacket to redistribute the insulation.
  3. Do Not Bleach: Bleach can damage the fabric and the water-repellent coating.
  4. Do Not Iron: Ironing can flatten the insulation and damage the outer fabric's finish.
  5. Do Not Dry Clean: Chemical solvents can harm the jacket's materials and coatings.
  6. Re-proofing: Over time, the water-repellent finish may wear off. You can restore it using a spray-on or wash-in re-proofing product designed for technical outerwear.
