FAQs

What does 'Isotex' fabric mean?

Isotex is a Regatta-specific waterproof, windproof, and breathable fabric technology designed to keep you dry and comfortable in the elements.

How do I choose the right size for layering?

The jacket has a standard fit. If you intend to wear thick mid-layers like a fleece, it is advisable to select one size larger than your usual fit for a more comfortable experience.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is designed to be hidden within the collar of the jacket. It can be easily deployed when needed and neatly stowed away when not in use.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 30°C using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, and do not iron the garment.

How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?

It is recommended to re-waterproof the jacket after approximately 10 washes or when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface. Periodic re-treatment helps maintain its protective qualities.

What is the purpose of the ribbed storm cuffs?

The ribbed storm cuffs are designed to create a snug seal around your wrists, preventing wind and rain from entering the sleeves and helping to retain body heat.

What is the difference between Hydrafort and Isotex?

Both are Regatta fabric technologies focused on weather protection. Hydrafort typically refers to the waterproof coating or fabric itself, while Isotex encompasses a broader system of waterproof, windproof, and breathable performance.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and reapply a waterproofing treatment. Ensure all seams and zippers are intact.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

Check if the inner lining is damp. Ensure you are not wearing non-breathable base layers. Clean the jacket as per care instructions, as dirt and residue can impede breathability.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a graphite pencil (rubbing the lead on the teeth) or a silicone-based lubricant to help it slide smoothly.

Jacket is not as warm as expected.

Ensure the insulation has not become compressed. Check that all closures (zipper, cuffs) are properly fastened to trap heat. Consider wearing a warmer base layer if extreme cold is expected.
