Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Oklarna men's jacket is designed for adults seeking reliable protection against the elements during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is the Isotex 30000 stretch Ripstop fabric, offering excellent waterproof, breathable, and durable performance. A potential caveat is that while it provides protection, it's best suited for moderate to strenuous activity where its venting features can be utilized.

FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of this jacket?

The jacket features Isotex 30000 fabric, which has a waterproof rating of 30,000 g/m²/24 hours, indicating excellent waterproof performance.

How do I know if I need to re-apply the water repellent finish?

If water no longer beads up on the fabric surface and instead soaks in, it's time to reactivate the DWR finish, typically by washing and tumble drying or ironing.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

Yes, the jacket can be layered with insulating mid-layers such as fleece or down jackets to provide warmth in colder conditions. The outer shell will protect you from wind and rain.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is a grown-on technical hood with adjusters and is integrated into the jacket design for optimal protection and visibility.

What is the benefit of the underarm ventilation zips?

These zips allow you to quickly release excess body heat during physical activity, helping to regulate your temperature and improve comfort.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with a liquid detergent, rinse twice, and tumble dry on low heat before a final cool iron to reactivate the DWR. Avoid bleach and fabric softener.

What does 'Ripstop' fabric mean?

Ripstop fabric is woven with a special reinforcing technique that makes it highly resistant to tearing and ripping. Interlocking threads are spaced at regular intervals, creating a grid pattern.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof or breathable

The DWR finish may have worn off. Follow the care instructions to wash and tumble dry the jacket, then iron on a low heat or use a reproofing spray to restore water repellency.

Water seeping through seams

Check if the seams are still properly taped. If the tape appears damaged, contact customer support. Ensure the jacket has been washed and reproofed correctly.

Zips are stiff or difficult to use

Ensure the zips are clean and free of debris. Gently try to work the zip up and down. A small amount of wax (like beeswax) can sometimes help lubricate the zip teeth.

Jacket feels clammy inside

Ensure the underarm vents are open if you are exerting yourself. Check that the garment is not overly tight, allowing for air circulation. Use the hood adjusters to create a better seal if needed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly waterproof and breathable performance for challenging conditions.
  • Durable ripstop fabric offers good resistance to tears and abrasions.
  • Designed for comfort during activity with venting and a mesh lining.
  • Practical features like water-repellent zips and an adjustable hood enhance usability.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for active use, may feel warmer than expected in mild conditions without venting.
  • The specific fit may vary, so trying it on or checking measurements is recommended.
  • While durable, extreme abrasion could still damage the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The jacket requires no specific setup. Ensure all zips are fully closed before wearing for maximum protection.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed as outerwear and is compatible with various mid-layers depending on the weather conditions. It can be worn over t-shirts for moderate weather or with fleece layers for colder temperatures.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C using a liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergents, bleach, or fabric softeners.

  4. Re-proofing: After drying, iron on a low heat setting, or use a specific reproofing spray, to reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) finish.
