Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Hoscar Waterproof Insulated Jacket is designed for adult hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who require robust protection during cold and wet conditions. It excels by combining high-performance ISOTEX 20000 breathable, stretchable fabric with THERMOGUARD insulation to provide a reliable barrier against the elements; however, its longer length, while excellent for coverage, may feel restrictive for those who prefer high-mobility, hip-length athletic cuts.

FAQs

Is the hood removable?

No, the hood on the Regatta Hoscar is a fixed, adjustable design with a wire peak.

How should I wash this jacket?

Wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a mild liquid detergent or a specialized technical outer-wear cleaner.

Is this jacket suitable for extreme mountain climbing?

While highly protective, its longer length and insulation are optimized for hiking and cold-weather outdoor activities rather than technical climbing where high-mobility and minimal bulk are preferred.

Can I tumble dry the jacket?

Yes, tumble drying on a low, cool setting is recommended to help maintain the water-repellent finish.

Does it have pit zips for ventilation?

No, this model relies on the inherent breathability of the ISOTEX 20000 fabric to manage internal moisture.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR finish may be wearing off; re-apply a DWR spray treatment and tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the water repellency.

Condensation building up inside the jacket

Ensure you are layering appropriately; excessive perspiration can overwhelm even breathable membranes. Consider opening the front zip slightly during high-intensity activity.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof rating (ISOTEX 20000) handles heavy rain well
  • THERMOGUARD insulation provides consistent warmth
  • Breathable fabric prevents overheating during exertion
  • Adjustable cuffs and storm cuffs seal out cold drafts
  • Longer length offers enhanced protection against wind chill

Cons

  • Longer length may hinder high-stepping movement
  • Insulation adds weight compared to non-insulated shells
  • Polyester material requires specific care to maintain DWR finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, wash it using technical gear cleaners that do not strip the DWR finish. Avoid using standard fabric softeners as they can clog the breathability pores of the ISOTEX membrane. Regularly check the adjustable hood and cuffs to ensure they are properly tensioned before heading into a storm. For longevity, store the jacket on a broad-shouldered hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can degrade synthetic fibers over time.
