FAQs

What is the main advantage of Isotex 30000 fabric?

Isotex 30000 provides a high level of waterproofing and breathability, rated at 30,000 g/m²/24 hours, making it suitable for very wet conditions and high-exertion activities.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

Yes, the jacket serves as an excellent waterproof and windproof outer shell. You can layer insulating garments underneath, such as fleece or down jackets, to adapt it for colder temperatures.

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

If water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, and instead soaks in, it's time to re-proof the jacket after cleaning.

Are the pockets truly waterproof?

The pockets feature water-repellent zips, which significantly reduce water ingress. However, they are not fully submersible, so it's advisable to use a waterproof pouch for highly sensitive electronics.

What is the benefit of the VisionAlign Hood?

The VisionAlign Hood is designed to move with your head, maintaining your peripheral vision and ensuring an unobstructed view, which is crucial for safety and performance in dynamic outdoor activities.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a pure soap. Rinse thoroughly and avoid fabric softeners or bleach. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

What is the sizing like for this jacket?

The jacket is available in standard men's sizing. It's designed to accommodate layering, so consider your typical layering needs when selecting your size. Refer to Regatta's sizing chart for precise measurements.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a suitable re-waterproofing treatment as per the product instructions.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax stick specifically designed for zippers.

Jacket feels clammy inside despite being waterproof.

Ensure underarm vents are open if engaged in high activity. Check that the DWR finish is intact, as a compromised outer surface can affect breathability. Wash with pure soap and rinse thoroughly.

Seams appear to be leaking.

Verify that the taped seams are intact. If there is visible damage to the tape, contact customer support. Ensure the jacket has been washed and cared for according to instructions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathability ratings for serious outdoor use.
  • Durable ripstop fabric is resistant to tears and snags.
  • Thoughtful features like underarm vents and VisionAlign hood enhance comfort and usability.
  • Well-sealed construction with taped seams and water-repellent zips.
  • Lightweight design with a mesh lining for better temperature regulation.

Cons

  • May be overly technical for casual, everyday wear.
  • The focus on technical performance might mean a less relaxed fit compared to lifestyle jackets.
  • Limited to a polyester material, which might not appeal to all preferences.
  • Ripstop fabric, while durable, can sometimes feel stiffer than other materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no setup beyond adjusting the cuffs and hem for a personalized fit. Ensure all zips are fully closed before heading out.

Compatibility: The jacket is designed as a standalone outer layer or can be paired with insulating mid-layers for colder conditions. It is compatible with most standard outdoor trousers and footwear.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (gentle cycle) with a pure soap. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  4. Re-proofing: For continued water repellency, apply a reproofing spray or wash-in treatment suitable for technical outdoor wear after several washes, following the product's instructions.
