Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Reid Softshell Jacket is an ideal choice for active adults seeking a balance between warmth, comfort, and weather protection during everyday outdoor activities. Crafted from high-quality polyester with a warm-backed stretch fabric, it offers excellent movement and wind resistance, though users should note it is water-repellent rather than fully waterproof, making it better suited for light showers than heavy downpours.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, it is water-repellent. It can handle light showers, but it is not designed to withstand heavy or prolonged rain.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is recommended to air dry this jacket to preserve the fabric's stretch and the integrity of the water-repellent coating.

Is the jacket machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle at 30°C.

Does this jacket have a hood?

No, the Regatta Reid Softshell is a hoodless design.

Can I wear this in winter?

It is great as a mid-layer during winter under a waterproof shell, or as an outer layer during cool, dry winter days.

How do I choose the right size?

The jacket follows standard sizing. If you plan to layer thick sweaters underneath, you may prefer sizing up for comfort.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface

The water-repellent finish has likely worn off; clean the jacket and apply a DWR spray treatment.

Zipper feels stiff or sticks

Check for fabric caught in the teeth or clean the zipper track with a soft brush to remove dirt or debris.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft and comfortable inner lining
  • Highly flexible for active outdoor use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains in top condition, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a technical cleaner or mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can degrade the water-repellent coating.
  3. Re-treating: If you notice water stops beading on the surface over time, apply a standard spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to restore performance.
  4. Compatibility: The slim-to-regular fit is designed to accommodate a base layer or light sweater underneath without restricting movement.
