Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Professional Soft Shell Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable outerwear for active use. Its primary benefit is offering protection against wind and light rain through breathable and water-resistant fabric. A potential consideration is that the 'Polka Dot' pattern may not suit all aesthetic preferences. Key features include a DWR finish, wind resistance, a high-neck zip closure, and two lower pockets.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket features a DWR finish, which is designed to repel light rain and moisture. It is not a fully waterproof jacket and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.

How do I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid using bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on a low heat setting and do not iron.

What is the primary function of the shockcord hem?

The shockcord hem allows you to adjust the fit around the bottom of the jacket. Tightening it helps to seal out wind and prevent drafts.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This softshell jacket is primarily designed for wind and light rain protection. For very cold weather, it is best used as an outer layer over insulating mid-layers like fleeces or thermal tops.

What does 'DWR Finish' mean?

DWR stands for 'Durable Water Repellent.' It's a coating applied to fabrics to make water bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep you dry in light rain.

How many pockets does the jacket have?

The jacket features two lower pockets for convenient storage.

What is the neckline style?

The jacket has a high-neck design with a zip neck for adjustable ventilation and added protection.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside despite no rain.

This can occur if the jacket's breathability is compromised. Ensure the garment is clean and the DWR finish is intact. If using a fabric softener during washing, discontinue its use as it can block pores. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment specifically designed for softshell fabrics.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check the zipper track for any debris or fabric caught within it. Gently try to clear any obstructions. Applying a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth can help it glide more smoothly. Ensure the zip guard is not impeding movement.

DWR finish seems less effective.

The DWR finish can wear off over time. Hand wash the jacket and consider applying a DWR spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor apparel to restore its water-repellent properties. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying any treatment.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable and comfortable polyester softshell material.
  • Good protection against wind and light precipitation.
  • Breathable design prevents overheating during activity.
  • Adjustable features like the shockcord hem enhance usability.
  • Practical storage with two lower pockets.

Cons

  • May not be suitable for heavy rain due to its water-repellent, not fully waterproof, nature.
  • The 'Polka Dot' pattern is specific and might not align with all personal styles.
  • Polyester material may not offer the same thermal insulation as thicker fabrics.

Care Instructions:
