Regatta Highton Hooded Waterproof Jacket - Blue - Size: 7

Isotex 20000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '20000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm, meaning it can withstand water pressure equivalent to a 20,000mm column of water, and a breathability rating of 20,000g/m²/24 hours, signifying good moisture vapor transmission.

Please refer to the product sizing chart, which typically provides measurements for chest, waist, and height corresponding to UK age sizes. Ensure you measure your child accurately before selecting a size.

This jacket is designed primarily for waterproof and windproof protection. For cold weather, it can be layered over insulating clothing such as fleece or thermal base layers to provide warmth.

The main difference is the integrated technical hood on this version, which provides additional protection for the head and neck against wind and rain. The non-hooded version will not have this feature.

The DWR finish is reactivated with tumble drying after washing. Re-application with a spray or wash-in treatment is recommended when water no longer beads on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.

Yes, the printed name label is a feature integrated into the jacket for identification, particularly useful for school settings. It is designed for children up to approximately 8 years of age.

The reflective trims are designed to reflect light sources, such as headlights, making the wearer more visible in low-light or dark conditions. Their effectiveness is dependent on the presence of an external light source.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the DWR. For continued performance, consider applying a specific DWR re-proofer after washing.

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the fabric pores. Wash using a mild liquid detergent and rinse thoroughly. Check that the mesh lining is not obstructed.

Confirm the correct size has been selected. Ensure the internal layers are not too thick. Adjust the shockcord hem and cuffs for a better fit to reduce excess fabric.
