FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

No, this jacket features a water-resistant DWR finish, making it suitable for light rain and splashes. It is not designed for prolonged or heavy downpours.

What is the primary use case for this jacket?

It is ideal for outdoor activities in mild to cool weather, such as walking, hiking, or as a commuting layer, providing wind resistance and protection from light rain.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This jacket provides wind resistance and some warmth, but it is not heavily insulated. It is best layered over warmer mid-layers for colder conditions.

How do I maintain the water-repellent finish?

Follow the care instructions for washing with mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble drying on low heat after washing helps reactivate the finish. Consider periodic re-proofing treatments.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 100% Polyester Softshell fabric.

Does it have a hood?

This particular model (Regatta Professional Mens Soft Shell Jacket - Blue - L) does not appear to have an integrated hood based on the description.

Are there other colors or sizes available?

Yes, the Regatta Professional Soft Shell Jacket is available in various colors and sizes. Please refer to the product listings for available options.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Jacket feels less water-repellent after washing.

Reactivate the DWR finish by tumble drying on a low heat setting for 20 minutes. If performance is still reduced, consider applying a DWR re-proofing treatment.

Jacket is too tight or too loose.

Adjust the shockcord hem to tighten or loosen the fit around the waist. For significant fit issues, consider exchanging for a different size if possible.
