Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which makes it water-resistant. It is not fully waterproof and will soak through in heavy, persistent rain.

Does this jacket have a hood?

No, the Regatta Reid Softshell Jacket does not feature a hood.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, it can be machine washed. Use a cool cycle and avoid fabric softeners to protect the water-resistant coating.

Is the material breathable?

Yes, the stretch softshell fabric is designed for active use, allowing moisture vapor to escape during exertion.

What is the best way to store it?

It is best to hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain its shape and avoid permanent creases.

Does it provide insulation?

The inner face is warm-backed, providing a moderate level of thermal insulation for mild to cool temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Use a specialized technical wash-in re-proofer to restore the water-repellent properties.

The shockcord hem is loose or slipping

Ensure the toggle is fully engaged and the cord is not twisted. If the toggle has lost tension, verify no debris is stuck inside the mechanism.

Zipper is sticking or not sliding smoothly

Clean any dirt or grit from the zipper teeth using a soft brush. If it remains difficult to operate, apply a light touch of graphite or zipper lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear
  • Excellent range of motion due to stretch fabric
  • Durable water repellent finish for light weather protection
  • Easy to clean and dries quickly

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy, continuous downpours
  • Limited storage with only two pockets
  • No hood included for head protection

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no formal setup—simply adjust the shockcord hem to your preferred tightness to prevent drafts. It is highly compatible with layering; the slim yet flexible fit makes it an ideal mid-layer under a heavier parka during deep winter or as a standalone top layer in spring and autumn.

To care for your jacket, machine wash on a cool setting. It is recommended to use technical garment cleaners rather than standard fabric softeners, as softeners can degrade the DWR water-repellent coating. Hang-dry the jacket to preserve the elasticity of the fabric and the integrity of the zippers.
