FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket is a 3-in-1 system, meaning it includes a fleece layer that can be zipped into the waterproof shell. This combination provides good warmth and protection for moderately cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering additional thermal wear underneath is recommended.

How do I clean the jacket?

The jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle at 30°C with liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Refer to the 'Care Instructions' section for detailed guidance.

What is Hydrafort fabric?

Hydrafort is Regatta's own brand of waterproof and windproof fabric, designed to keep you dry and protected from the elements while remaining breathable.

Can I wear the inner fleece and outer shell separately?

Yes, the 3-in-1 design allows for the inner fleece and the waterproof outer shell to be worn independently, providing versatility for different weather conditions.

How do I reapply the waterproofing treatment?

After cleaning, you can use a wash-in or spray-on re-proofer specifically designed for waterproof outdoor gear. Follow the instructions on the re-proofer product carefully.

What does 'Taped Seam' mean?

Taped seams mean that the stitching lines on the inside of the jacket are covered with a waterproof tape. This prevents water from leaking through the small holes created by the needle during sewing, ensuring full waterproofing.

How should I check the fit of the jacket?

Ensure there is enough room to wear a layer underneath comfortably. Check that the sleeves are the correct length and do not restrict arm movement. The hood and hem should allow for adjustment to seal out drafts.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through seams

Ensure seams are fully taped. If water is still entering, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need reapplication. Wash and re-proof the jacket according to care instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a mild soap. Allow to dry completely, then apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite pencil to the teeth. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper.

Reduced waterproof performance

The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and then apply a new DWR treatment following the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the fabric's performance.

Inner fleece detaches unintentionally

Ensure the inner fleece is correctly attached to the outer shell using the designated connection points (often zippers or loops). Check that all attachment points are securely fastened.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This is a wearable garment and requires no technical setup. Ensure all zippers and hook-and-loop fasteners are properly aligned and secured before use.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed as outerwear for adult males. Refer to the size guide for the best fit, as sizing can vary. The inner fleece is designed to integrate with the outer shell.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a small amount of liquid detergent.
  • Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent. Do not use fabric softener.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  • Re-proofing: For continued water repellency, use a re-proofer spray or wash-in product suitable for waterproof fabrics after several washes. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
