This Regatta Professional Soft Shell Jacket in Plaid Green (Size L) is designed for adult males seeking a versatile outerwear layer. Its key benefit is offering protection against wind and light moisture while remaining breathable. A potential caveat is that it's water-resistant, not fully waterproof, making it best suited for dry or mildly wet conditions. This jacket features a breathable, wind-resistant softshell fabric with a DWR finish, a high-neck zip closure, long sleeves, and two lower pockets.

No, this jacket features a DWR finish making it water-resistant, not fully waterproof. It is best suited for light rain or drizzle, and dry conditions. For heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
You can machine wash the jacket warm (30°C) with similar colours. Avoid using bleach, and tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to the fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep you dry in light rain.
This soft shell jacket provides wind resistance and some warmth, but it is not heavily insulated. For very cold weather, it is best worn as a mid-layer over warmer garments like fleece or down.
The hem has a shockcord with a toggle. Pull the toggle away from the jacket to loosen the hem and push it towards the jacket to tighten, helping to seal out drafts.
The jacket features two lower pockets, ideal for keeping hands warm or storing small essentials.
This is normal if there has been significant moisture exposure or high activity levels, as the DWR finish and fabric allow some moisture vapor to escape. Ensure the jacket is properly dried after use. For prolonged heavy rain, consider a fully waterproof outer layer.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any caught material. If the zipper remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Inspect the cord and the toggle mechanism. Ensure the cord is properly threaded through the eyelets and that the toggle is functioning correctly. If the cord is frayed, it may need replacing.
Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure it is unzipped and fully open before trying on.
Compatibility: Suitable for adult males. Designed for layering over base layers or mid-layers.
