Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Professional Mens Soft Shell Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a blend of protection and comfort in outdoor or work environments. Its key benefit is offering wind resistance and water repellency with a breathable finish. A potential consideration is that while water-repellent, it may not be fully waterproof for prolonged heavy rain. The jacket features a warm-backed woven softshell fabric, a full zip with a zip guard, two lower pockets, and an adjustable shockcord hem for a secure fit.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

No, the jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which is designed to shed light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in prolonged or heavy downpours.

What kind of activities is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for outdoor activities and work in cool, windy conditions, or light rain. It's ideal for walking, hiking, light outdoor labor, and as a casual layering piece.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C using a mild process. Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can impair the DWR finish and breathability.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket provides warmth due to its warm-backed woven softshell fabric. For very cold conditions, it is best used as a mid-layer over thermal base layers, or as an outer shell combined with warmer insulating layers underneath.

What does 'wind resistant' mean for this jacket?

The jacket incorporates a wind-resistant membrane that significantly reduces the amount of wind passing through the fabric. This helps to prevent convective heat loss and keeps you more comfortable in breezy conditions.

What is the purpose of the shockcord hem?

The adjustable shockcord hem allows you to tighten the bottom of the jacket. This helps to seal out drafts and retain warmth, providing a more secure and personalized fit.

Is the pattern ('Polka Dot') available in other colors?

This specific product is listed in Red with a Polka Dot pattern. Other Regatta Professional Soft Shell Jacket variants are available in different colors and patterns, please refer to the product listings for those options.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less water-repellent than before.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR treatment following the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in it. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth for smoother operation.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

Ensure the inside of the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce breathability. Check that the garment is not layered with materials that trap moisture underneath. Wash according to care instructions.
