FAQs

What does ISOTEX 20000 mean?

ISOTEX 20000 is a waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '20000' indicates its performance rating: 20,000mm hydrostatic head for waterproofness and 20,000 g/m²/24 hours for breathability, ensuring you stay dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.

How should I clean the jacket?

The jacket can be machine washed at 30°C or 40°C using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach. It can be tumble dried on a low heat setting or air dried. Do not iron.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This jacket is designed for waterproof and windproof protection. For very cold weather, layering with warm clothing underneath is recommended to provide insulation.

What is the benefit of taped seams?

Taped seams are strips of waterproof tape bonded to the seams of the garment. They ensure that no water can penetrate through the tiny holes made by the sewing needle, providing complete waterproof protection.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Check the size guide provided by Regatta. The jacket features adjustable cuffs and an adjustable shockcord hem, which can be tightened to customize the fit and prevent drafts.

Are the reflective trims durable?

The reflective trims are designed to enhance visibility. While durable for normal use, they can be subject to wear and tear over time with extensive washing and abrasion. Proper care will help maintain their effectiveness.

Can this jacket be used for school every day?

Yes, the jacket is durable and provides excellent protection against the elements, making it well-suited for daily school wear, especially during wet or windy weather.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not completely waterproof after washing.

Ensure the DWR finish is still active. Re-apply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions after cleaning.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently pull the zipper up and down while applying a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Hood does not stay in place.

Adjust the elastication and drawcords on the hood to achieve a snugger fit around the head. Ensure the high collar is also positioned correctly.

Reflective trims appear faded.

Reflective trims can naturally wear over time with extensive use and washing. While performance may slightly diminish, they should still offer some visibility. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive abrasion on these areas.
