Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy, prolonged rainfall.

Does this jacket have a hood?

No, this version of the Regatta Reid Softshell does not feature a hood.

What material is it made of?

The jacket is constructed from high-quality polyester with woven stretch properties for durability and comfort.

Can I wear this in the winter?

It provides good wind resistance and some warmth, but for deep winter temperatures, it is best worn as a layer under a heavier coat.

How do I maintain the water-repellent finish?

Avoid fabric softeners when washing and consider using a DWR treatment spray if water stops beading on the surface.

Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?

Yes, the two lower zipped pockets are designed to be secure and spacious enough to store standard-sized smartphones and keys.

Troubleshooting

Water starts soaking into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a DWR re-proofer spray to restore its performance.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move

Check for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. If clean, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or run a graphite pencil along the teeth to improve smoothness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of flexibility for active movement
  • Effective wind protection
  • Durable and soft-to-the-touch material
  • Lightweight construction for comfortable layering
  • Secure storage with zippered pockets

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy or persistent rainfall

  • Limited to light insulation; may need extra layers in freezing temps

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Regatta Reid Softshell in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the DWR water-repellent coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a tumble dryer, use the lowest heat setting to prevent damage to the stretch fibers.
  3. Re-treating: Over time, water-repellent performance may diminish. Use a spray-on DWR re-proofer to restore the jacket's moisture-shedding capabilities.
  4. Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain its shape, and ensure it is completely dry before storing it in a closet to prevent moisture buildup.
