This Regatta Highton jacket is designed for active children, offering excellent waterproof and breathable protection for school and outdoor adventures. Its Isotex 20000 fabric and taped seams ensure dryness, while a technical hood provides extra weather coverage. A potential caveat is that the jacket may run small, so checking sizing is recommended.

This specific variant is for children aged 5-6 years. Regatta offers the Highton jacket in a range of sizes for kids.
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 40°C using liquid detergent. Do not use bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not iron. Avoid fabric softener.
The jacket provides excellent waterproof and windproof protection. It is designed for layering, so for colder winter weather, add warm layers underneath such as fleece or insulated clothing.
Isotex 20000 is Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '20000' rating indicates a high level of performance, meaning it can withstand 20,000mm of water pressure and offers a breathability rating of 20,000 g/m²/24 hours.
The hood is described as 'grown-on', meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket and cannot be detached.
The reflective trims are designed for visibility but can be susceptible to wear and tear over time, especially with frequent washing or abrasive contact. Proper care, as outlined in the care instructions, will help prolong their lifespan.
The two zipped chest pockets are intended for secure storage of small items. They are positioned for easy access while wearing the jacket.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a specific re-proofer spray designed for technical outerwear. Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing, as this can affect water repellency.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.
While the jacket is breathable, excessive activity can still lead to moisture buildup. Ensure the child is wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture. Check that ventilation (if any) is open and that the jacket is not too tight, allowing for air circulation.
Avoid high heat drying and ironing, as these can damage the reflective elements. If minor peeling occurs, carefully try to re-adhere with a fabric glue designed for outdoor gear, but be aware that this may compromise the reflectivity. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary.
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure the size selected is appropriate for the child.
Compatibility: Suitable for children aged 5-6 years (as per the specific variant) and generally unisex. It is designed for outdoor activities and everyday wear.
