Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
Simply put the jacket on over existing clothing. Ensure the hood is pulled up for full visibility if used. There are no complex setup procedures.
Compatibility
This is a standalone waterproof shell jacket. It is compatible with various layers underneath, such as t-shirts, long-sleeved tops, and fleeces, depending on the ambient temperature. It is designed for children aged 9-10, providing a comfortable fit over typical children's clothing.
Care
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your Regatta Stormbreak Waterproof Jacket.
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with a mild detergent. It is crucial to avoid using fabric softeners as they can impair the jacket's waterproof coating and breathability.
- Drying: Line dry. Do not tumble dry, iron, or dry clean. High heat can damage the waterproof coating and the integrity of the 100% polyester fabric.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew or odors.
- Maintaining Waterproofing: If the jacket's water repellency diminishes over time (water no longer beads up), consider re-applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for waterproof fabrics. These are available as sprays or wash-in products.
