FAQs
What is the waterproof rating of this jacket?
The jacket features Isotex 15000 stretch fabric, which provides a waterproof rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with liquid detergent, followed by a double rinse. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?
Yes, the jacket is designed for layering. You can wear a fleece or insulated mid-layer underneath for added warmth in colder conditions.
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is packaway, meaning it can be folded and stored within the collar when not in use, but it is not detachable.
What does Isotex 15000 mean?
Isotex 15000 is a Regatta brand technology indicating a waterproof and breathable performance level. '15000' refers to the breathability rating in grams per square meter per 24 hours (g/m²/24hr).
How do I reactivate the water-repellent finish?
Tumble drying on a low heat setting after washing can help reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish. For a more robust treatment, consider using a DWR spray or wash-in product.
Are there any internal pockets?
Yes, the jacket features one internal pocket for secure storage of valuables.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions. Ensure zippers and seams are intact.
Reduced breathability or feeling clammy
Ensure the mesh lining is clean and free of debris. Check that the main fabric is not clogged with dirt or detergent residue. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and rinse thoroughly.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a wax-based lubricant (like a candle or specialized zipper wax) to the zipper teeth. Avoid using oil-based lubricants.
Hood adjustment is not effective
Ensure the drawcords are fully extended and properly threaded through the toggles. Check for any obstructions in the hood channels.

- Fully taped seams for maximum protection against rain
- Adjustable features (hood, cuffs, hem) for a customizable fit
- Multiple secure pockets for carrying essentials

Cons
- Utilitarian design may not appeal to fashion-conscious users
- Only one specific colour family (Grey) and size (XXXXL) is detailed in this product information, limiting immediate choice visibility

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear out of the packaging. Ensure all zippers are closed and adjusters are set to your preference before heading out.
Compatibility: Designed as outerwear, this jacket is compatible with most base layers and mid-layers, such as t-shirts, long-sleeve shirts, or lightweight fleeces. It is suitable for a range of outdoor activities including hiking, walking, and general everyday use in wet conditions.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Use a specific technical wash or a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners.
- Rinsing: Ensure a double rinse to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources. Drying helps to reactivate the water-repellent finish.
- Re-proofing: For continued water repellency, consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment after several washes, following the product's instructions.
