Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Soft Shell Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a lightweight and water-repellent outer layer for active or casual wear. Its key benefit is providing wind and water resistance with a quick-dry fabric technology, ensuring comfort in variable conditions. A potential caveat is that while water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof for prolonged heavy rain. The jacket features a collared neckline, full zip fastening with a zip guard, long sleeves, and includes multiple pockets for convenience.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

No, this jacket is designed to be water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or splashes. For prolonged or heavy rainfall, a fully waterproof jacket is recommended.

What is the 'Quick Dry' feature?

The Quick Dry fabric technology allows moisture (like sweat or light rain) to evaporate quickly from the fabric surface, helping to keep you dry and comfortable.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This jacket is lightweight and best suited for mild to cool conditions. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it over warmer clothing such as fleeces or insulated jackets.

How should I wash the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 40°C using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and do not iron or dry clean. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Using a technical wash can help preserve the water-repellent finish.

What does 'Recycled' fabric mean?

The fabric is made using materials that have been processed from pre-consumer or post-consumer waste, contributing to sustainability.

How many pockets does this jacket have?

The jacket features two zip-fastened side pockets and one zip-fastened chest pocket.

What is the fit like?

This is a men's regular fit jacket. For precise sizing, it is recommended to consult the brand's size guide and measure yourself.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside after light rain.

Ensure the water-repellent finish is intact. Consider re-applying a waterproofing treatment suitable for softshell fabrics. Also, check that the jacket was not exposed to prolonged or heavy rain, as it is water-repellent, not waterproof.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid using oily lubricants that could stain the fabric.

Jacket has lost its wind-resistant properties.

The fabric's technology might need refreshing. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and consider using a specialized technical wash. Ensure no fabric softener was used, as it can impair performance.
