FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is designed for protection against rain and wind. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer appropriate thermal base and mid-layers underneath.

How do I know if I need to re-waterproof the jacket?

If water no longer beads up on the fabric surface and instead soaks in, it's time to re-apply a DWR treatment. Check the fabric after rain or washing; if it darkens significantly, the DWR needs attention.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a gentle cycle with cold water. Always use a specialized liquid detergent for technical outdoor wear and avoid fabric softeners or bleach.

What does Isotex 15000 mean?

Isotex 15000 refers to Regatta's technology that provides waterproof, breathable, and windproof protection. The '15000' typically indicates the hydrostatic head rating in mm, signifying a high level of waterproofing.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Specific warranty details are best confirmed with the retailer or Regatta directly, as warranty periods can vary. Generally, Regatta offers a warranty against manufacturing defects.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The jacket features functional pockets, designed to keep items dry from light rain. However, for prolonged exposure to heavy rain, it's advisable to use waterproof inner pockets or dry bags for sensitive electronics.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer beading water effectively.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for waterproof-outdoor gear. Ensure the jacket is clean before application.

Water seeping through seams.

Check if the seams are properly taped. If the tape appears damaged, it may indicate a manufacturing defect or wear and tear. Contact customer support if within warranty.

Jacket feels clammy inside despite being waterproof.

Ensure the jacket's breathable membranes are not blocked. Wash the jacket using a technical fabric detergent to remove any accumulated oils or dirt that might hinder breathability. Avoid overwearing insulating layers underneath.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track.
