Product Information

Full details

This waterproof and breathable jacket is designed for men engaging in outdoor activities like hiking and festivals. Its key benefit is reliable protection from the elements, with a convenient packaway feature for unexpected weather. A potential caveat is that its breathability rating, while functional, may be exceeded during very intense physical exertion in humid conditions.

FAQs

What does 'Isotex 5000' mean?

Isotex 5000 refers to Regatta's proprietary waterproof, breathable, and windproof fabric technology. The '5000' indicates a hydrostatic head of 5,000mm and a breathability rating of 5,000g/m²/24 hours.

How do I know if this jacket is the right size?

The jacket is available in standard men's sizes. It is recommended to consult the brand's specific size chart and consider if you intend to wear thick layers underneath when choosing your size. The model in the description wears a size M.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

The jacket itself is not insulated and is primarily designed for protection against rain and wind. For cold weather, it can be worn as an outer shell layered over warm mid-layers like fleece or down jackets.

How should I clean the jacket?

The jacket is machine washable at 30 degrees Celsius with a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid bleach and do not iron directly on the reflective trim.

What are the dimensions when packed away?

The jacket packs into its own lower left side pocket, which converts into a belt bag. While exact dimensions vary based on folding, it is designed to be compact and portable for easy storage.

Is the hood adjustable?

The jacket features a pull-on hood for extra protection. Specific adjustment features like drawcords are not detailed but it is designed to offer coverage.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Warranty information is typically provided by the retailer at the point of sale. Please check your purchase receipt or contact the retailer for details on the warranty period and terms.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all seams and zippers are sealed. Check the care label to confirm the waterproof treatment has not been compromised by incorrect washing. Re-waterproofing treatments may be considered if performance degrades over time.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

This can occur during very high-intensity activities. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. Check that the fabric is clean, as dirt and oils can impede breathability. A light wash following care instructions might help.

Packaway pocket is difficult to use.

Ensure the jacket is folded neatly and compactly before attempting to stuff it into the pocket. Refer to visual guides if available, or practice folding it with the zipper fully open initially.

Reflective trim is peeling or damaged.

Avoid excessive heat during washing and drying, and do not use harsh chemicals. If damage occurs, the reflective properties will be reduced. Avoid ironing directly on the trim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The jacket is designed for general outdoor wear. It can be layered over other clothing for added warmth, though it is not insulated itself. It is suitable for men of adult size.

Care Instructions:

  • Machine Washable: Follow the care label instructions. Typically, this involves a 30-degree wash with mild detergent.
  • Rinse Thoroughly: Ensure all detergent is rinsed out to maintain fabric performance.
  • Do Not Bleach: Avoid using bleach or harsh cleaning agents.
  • Tumble Dry Low: It is recommended to tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources.
  • Cool Iron: If ironing is necessary, use a low setting.
