Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Oklarna Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection during outdoor activities like trekking and travel. Its key benefit is offering superior waterproof, breathable, and durable performance through advanced Isotex 30000 stretch Ripstop fabric. A potential consideration is that while it offers excellent weather resistance, optimal comfort may depend on layering for varied temperatures.

FAQs
What is Isotex 30000 fabric?
Isotex 30000 is a high-performance waterproof, breathable, and windproof fabric technology developed by Regatta. The '30000' rating indicates its high level of waterproofness and breathability.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low or hang to dry.
Is the hood detachable?
No, the hood is a grown-on technical hood designed as an integral part of the jacket's weather protection system.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
The jacket provides excellent protection against wind and rain. For very cold temperatures, it is recommended to layer a warm insulating jacket or fleece underneath.
How do I maintain the waterproof properties?
Periodically reapply a DWR treatment, especially after washing or when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.
What does 'taped seams' mean?
Taped seams means that the stitching lines on the inside of the jacket have been covered with a waterproof tape, preventing water from leaking through the needle holes.
What are the pockets like?
The jacket features two lower pockets with water-repellent zips for secure storage. There is also an inner zipped pocket.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR treatment according to the product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper area is clean. Gently work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth if necessary.
Jacket feels clammy inside
Open the underarm ventilation zips to increase airflow. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture effectively. The fabric is breathable, but extreme exertion can sometimes lead to internal moisture.
Seams are leaking
Ensure the garment has been washed according to instructions and that no fabric softener has been used, which can compromise seam sealing. If leakage persists, contact customer support.
