Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Carisbrooke Softshell Jacket is designed for women seeking protection and comfort during outdoor activities and everyday wear in mixed weather conditions. Its key benefit is offering a blend of water repellency and breathability in a flattering longline design. A potential consideration is that while water-repellent, it may not be fully waterproof for prolonged heavy rain. Key features include Softshell XPT fabric, a durable water repellent finish, a detachable hood, and adjustable sleeves.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Carisbrooke jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, making it suitable for light rain and showers. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for prolonged or heavy downpours.

How do I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, tumble drying on high heat, and ironing. Do not dry clean.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is detachable. It features drawcord adjusters for a secure fit when attached and can be removed for different weather conditions or preferences.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester Softshell XPT fabric with a honeycomb backing, weighing 200gsm.

What does the breathability rating mean?

The breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours indicates that the jacket allows a significant amount of moisture vapor to pass through it, helping to keep you dry from the inside during physical activity.

Are the sleeve adjustments secure?

The sleeves feature snap fasteners to adjust the cuffs. This provides a basic level of adjustment for a snugger fit.

What kind of activities is this jacket best for?

This jacket is ideal for outdoor walks, everyday wear, light hiking, and general activities in mixed or unpredictable weather conditions where wind and light rain protection are needed.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

Reapply a DWR treatment to the jacket according to the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before application, as dirt can impede the treatment.

Hood drawcords are difficult to adjust.

Ensure the drawcords are clean and free of debris. Gently pull and release the toggles to help them move smoothly.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This can occur in high-humidity environments or during intense activity. Ensure the jacket is not zipped up completely if not needed, or consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers underneath.

Stains on the fabric.

Address stains promptly by spot cleaning with mild soap and water. For stubborn stains, follow the general washing instructions.
