FAQs

What is ISOLITE 15000 fabric?

ISOLITE 15000 is a lightweight, waterproof, and breathable fabric used by Regatta. The '15000' rating indicates its performance level in terms of water resistance and breathability.

How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?

Turn the jacket inside out and fold it into the designated lower pocket. It is designed to compress and fit snugly within this pocket for easy storage.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain or storms?

The jacket is waterproof and has taped seams, making it suitable for moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy storms or extreme weather, a jacket with higher waterproof ratings and more robust features might be more appropriate.

Can I wear this jacket over a thicker layer?

The jacket is designed to be lightweight. While you can wear a thin layer underneath, it is not intended as an outer shell for bulky insulation. Layering with a fleece or insulated mid-layer is recommended for warmth.

How should I clean the jacket?

The jacket can be machine washed at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach, fabric softeners, and do not iron or dry clean.

What does 'Grown-on hood' mean?

'Grown-on hood' means the hood is permanently attached to the main body of the jacket, rather than being detachable.

Are the pockets zippered?

No, the jacket features two lower patch pockets which are not zippered. They offer basic storage for items like keys or a phone.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer beading water effectively

Reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish by tumble drying the jacket on a low heat setting for 20-30 minutes after washing. For best results, consider a DWR re-proofer spray designed for outdoor gear.

Water is leaking through seams

Ensure the taped seams are intact. If seams appear damaged, the jacket's waterproof integrity may be compromised. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and ensure it's fully dry before storage.

Jacket feels damp inside despite being waterproof

This could be due to condensation or exceeding the breathability limits in very high humidity or during intense activity. Ensure the hood is cinched correctly and consider layering with breathable fabrics underneath.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and mild soap. Dry thoroughly and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax stick to help it slide smoothly.
