FAQs

What does 'Isotex 15000' mean?

Isotex 15000 is a waterproof and breathable performance fabric. The '15000' rating indicates it can withstand a hydrostatic head of 15,000mm of water, and it allows a high level of breathability (MVTR - Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate) to keep you comfortable.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides excellent protection against rain and wind, which is crucial for warmth. However, it is primarily a shell. For very cold weather, layering appropriate thermal base and mid-layers underneath is recommended.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by Regatta. It's generally advisable to wear the size you normally wear in jackets and consider what layers you might wear underneath when deciding.

Can I wash this jacket with regular laundry detergent?

Yes, a mild liquid detergent is recommended. Avoid using fabric softeners or biological detergents, as they can impair the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.

What is the difference between this jacket and a rain poncho?

This jacket is a designed garment with sealed seams and adjustable features for a closer fit, offering superior wind protection and mobility compared to a poncho. It's built for active use.

How often should I re-waterproof the jacket?

Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, typically after several washes or extended use in wet conditions. Use a DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure the jacket has been washed according to care instructions. Reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment designed for waterproof fabrics.

Seams are leaking

Check if the seams are visibly damaged. If so, professional repair might be needed. Ensure any DWR treatment is still effective, as this can help water bead off seams.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This can be due to the environment or activity level. Ensure the vents (if any) are open and that you are not wearing excessive layers underneath. The breathability of the fabric may be exceeded during very high-intensity activities.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Clean the zipper teeth with water and a soft brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth to improve glide.
