Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Lyle IV Waterproof Hooded Jacket is an essential outer layer for outdoor enthusiasts and commuters who need reliable protection against unexpected downpours. Built with Isolite polyamide fabric and a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, this jacket excels at keeping you dry while maintaining high breathability, though its lightweight construction means it is better suited as a shell layer rather than heavy thermal insulation.

FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
Yes, the Isolite fabric provides a significant barrier against wind, helping to maintain body temperature.
Can I wash this in a standard machine?
Yes, machine wash on a cool setting with a specialized technical cleaner. Avoid fabric softeners.
How do I convert it into a belt bag?
The jacket features an integrated pocket or internal pouch design that allows you to fold the garment neatly into its own pocket.
Does it have an inner lining?
The Lyle IV is designed as a lightweight, unlined shell to maximize portability and breathability.
Is the hood removable?
The hood is concealed within the collar, meaning it can be tucked away when not in use but remains attached to the jacket.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking through the fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off; apply a waterproof reproofer spray to restore water beading.
Jacket feels damp inside
This is often caused by trapped body moisture; ensure you are not wearing too many layers underneath or adjust the front zip to improve ventilation.
Zippers feel stiff
Clear any debris or grit from the zipper tracks and apply a specialized zipper lubricant or rub with a dry candle wax.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Regatta Lyle IV, always close all zippers and fasten the Velcro cuffs before placing it in the washing machine. Use a gentle cycle with a technical detergent designed for waterproof garments; avoid standard fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR finish. After washing, ensure the jacket is thoroughly dried. If the water-beading performance on the outer shell begins to fade over time, you can refresh the DWR coating using a wash-in or spray-on proofing treatment. The jacket is best used as the outer layer of a layering system, worn over a fleece or base layer for colder climates.
