Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Hoscar Waterproof Insulated Jacket is designed for adult men who require a reliable, high-performance layer for hiking and outdoor activities in unpredictable weather. The key benefit is its combination of ISOTEX 20000 stretch fabric and THERMOGUARD insulation, offering superior waterproof protection and warmth. A potential caveat for some users is that the jacket features a longer-length design, which provides extra coverage but may feel bulkier than traditional, shorter hiking shells.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter temperatures?

Yes, it is designed with THERMOGUARD insulation specifically to retain heat, making it suitable for cold winter days.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, but always check the care label inside the garment. Use a non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners.

What does ISOTEX 20000 mean?

It is a measure of the jacket's waterproof and breathable capacity, indicating it can withstand high levels of water pressure while still allowing perspiration to escape.

Does the hood detach?

The jacket features a fixed, adjustable hood to ensure maximum weather protection and seal.

Is the jacket true to size?

The Regatta sizing is generally standard. However, because it is an insulated jacket, consider if you intend to layer thick fleeces underneath.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the fabric surface

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Re-apply a waterproofing spray treatment.

Condensation building up inside the jacket

Ensure you are venting via the front zip if exertion levels increase, as breathability has physical limits.

Hood keeps falling down during wind

Adjust the hood toggles and ensure the wire peak is molded into a curve to create a rigid shield.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof rating (ISOTEX 20000) for severe weather
  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio from insulation
  • Stretch fabric allows for greater freedom of movement
  • Extended length provides superior weather protection

Cons

  • Longer length might feel restrictive for high-agility climbing
  • Polyester material requires careful cleaning to maintain water repellency
  • Specific fit preferences may vary due to the longer cut

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains waterproof over time, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a mild technical detergent specifically formulated for waterproof garments. Avoid biological detergents or fabric softeners as these can strip the DWR coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators.
  3. Re-treating: Over time, if water stops beading on the surface, use a DWR reproofing spray to restore the factory finish.
  4. Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the insulation and the structure of the hood.
