Product Information

Full details

This guide is for adult males seeking a durable and versatile softshell jacket, particularly for customization with printing. Its key benefit is its wind and water-resistant nature with excellent printability. A potential caveat is that it's designed for warmer weather or layering, not extreme cold. The Regatta Standout Mens Ablaze Printable Softshell Jacket is constructed from a warm-backed woven softshell fabric with a 3-layer construction, offering breathability, durability, and a lightweight feel. It features a full zip with a zip guard, two lower pockets, and an adjustable shockcord hem for a secure fit. Its plain design and 265gsm weight make it ideal for screen, transfer, and vinyl printing.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this softshell jacket?

The jacket is designed for everyday wear, offering wind and water resistance, and is particularly suited for customization with various printing techniques.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

No, it features a durable water-repellent finish which is effective against light rain or showers, but it is not a fully waterproof jacket and is not designed for heavy rainfall.

Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash it on a cool setting with pure soap flakes. Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents.

How do I prepare the jacket for printing?

Ensure the fabric is clean and dry. For best results, pre-press the area where the print will be applied to remove moisture and create a smooth surface.

What kind of printing methods are best for this jacket?

The jacket is ideal for screen printing, transfer printing, and vinyl printing. Always test your chosen method and materials on a small, inconspicuous area first.

What are the specific fabric technologies used?

The jacket utilizes 3-layer construction, making it breathable, durable, lightweight, water-repellent, and wind-resistant.

What does 'tearaway label' mean?

A tearaway label means the brand and care information label is designed to be easily removed, which is beneficial for customisation to avoid branding conflicts.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency decreases over time.

Re-apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment designed for outdoor clothing. Follow product instructions carefully.

Print adhesion issues.

Ensure the fabric is clean and free from oils or residues. Use printing methods and materials specifically recommended for polyester softshell fabrics. Pre-press the area to be printed to ensure a dry, flat surface.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Jacket feels damp inside after activity.

This is likely due to perspiration. While the jacket is breathable, intense activity can exceed its capacity. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking base layers underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  • Ironing: Do not iron.
