Regatta Professional Mens Soft Shell Jacket - Polka Dot - Purple - XXXL

This jacket features a DWR finish and is water-resistant, making it suitable for light rain or showers. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and dry cleaning, as these can damage the fabric's performance features. Tumble dry on a low heat setting.

The jacket provides wind resistance and some warmth, but it is not heavily insulated. For very cold temperatures, it is recommended to layer this softshell jacket over warmer mid-layers such as a fleece or insulated jacket.

Softshell refers to a type of fabric that is designed to be breathable, water-resistant, and wind-resistant, offering a balance of comfort and protection for outdoor activities. It's typically more flexible and comfortable than traditional hard shells.

The jacket features a shockcord hem. You can pull on the toggles or cords located at the bottom hem to tighten the jacket around your waist, preventing wind from entering.

The pockets are standard lower pockets designed for convenience and hand warmth. They are not specifically insulated but offer a barrier against the elements.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have diminished over time. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for softshell fabrics according to product instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-applying.

Check the zipper track for any debris or fabric caught in it. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush. Apply a wax-based lubricant (like a candle or specialized zipper lubricant) to the teeth for smoother operation.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate layers underneath. If still tight, consider if this size is suitable for your layering needs or if a larger size is required. The shockcord hem can be adjusted for a more relaxed fit around the waist.
