Product Information

Full details

This guide is for men seeking a durable and versatile jacket for outdoor activities. The Regatta Professional Waterproof Fleece Jacket offers excellent protection against the elements with its waterproof and breathable Isotex 5000 fabric, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable. A minor drawback is that the jacket's primary warmth comes from its fleece lining, which might require layering in very cold conditions.

FAQs

What does 'Isotex 5000' mean?

Isotex 5000 refers to Regatta's own waterproof and breathable membrane technology. The '5000' indicates a hydrostatic head of 5000mm (waterproofness) and a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

Yes, the Isotex 5000 technology and taped seams make it suitable for moderate to heavy rain. For prolonged exposure in very heavy downpours, additional waterproof layers may enhance protection.

How warm is the fleece lining?

The Symmetry Fleece provides a good level of warmth for moderate temperatures. For colder conditions, it is designed to be layered effectively with thermal base layers or insulating mid-layers.

Can I wear a thicker sweater underneath?

The jacket is available in various sizes. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider choosing a size up from your usual fit for a more comfortable experience.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild liquid detergent. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning.

What are the pocket configurations?

The jacket features two lower zipped pockets for general storage and one concealed zipped pocket inside for securing smaller valuables.

Is the hood detachable?

This specific model does not feature a hood. It has a high collar for neck protection.

Troubleshooting

Water is leaking through seams

Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions and has not been exposed to harsh chemicals that could degrade the waterproof coating. Re-evaluate if the seams are stressed beyond normal wear.

Jacket feels damp inside

This can be due to the breathability limit being reached during intense activity, or if the garment needs cleaning. Ensure the fabric is clean and free from dirt or body oils that can impede breathability. Consider ventilation by opening the zip.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper. If still stiff, apply a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.
