Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Hoscar Waterproof Insulated Jacket is designed for adult men who require robust protection during cold, wet outdoor activities. It combines high-performance ISOTEX 20000 stretch fabric with THERMOGUARD insulation to keep you dry and warm in harsh conditions. While the jacket offers excellent coverage due to its longer length and technical hood, its substantial insulation may feel too warm for high-intensity movement in milder temperatures.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for extreme winter weather?

It is designed for cold, wet conditions with THERMOGUARD insulation. For extreme alpine environments, additional mid-layering is recommended.

Can I machine wash the Hoscar jacket?

Yes, machine wash on a cool setting. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the waterproof coating.

What is the benefit of the wired hood?

The wire allows you to shape the hood opening so it stays in place against the wind and provides a clearer line of sight compared to standard hoods.

Is the material noisy when moving?

Because it uses a technical stretch fabric rather than a stiff hardshell, the Hoscar is relatively quiet during movement.

Does it have an internal pocket?

Yes, the jacket features multiple secure pockets, including internal options, to keep items dry and safe.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the outer fabric

This indicates the DWR finish is wearing off; wash the jacket and apply a fresh water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment.

Internal condensation buildup

Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking base layers; avoid cotton, which holds moisture against the skin.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level waterproof rating with ISOTEX 20000
  • Superior warmth from THERMOGUARD insulation
  • Extended length provides additional protection against the elements
  • Adjustable wired hood maintains visibility during storms
  • Stretch fabric allows for a comfortable, non-restrictive fit

Cons

  • Heavier than non-insulated shell jackets
  • Can be too warm for high-exertion activities in mild weather
  • Requires periodic reproofing to maintain DWR finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, wash it using a technical garment cleaner rather than standard detergent, as standard soap can degrade the waterproof membrane. Always follow the care label instructions; generally, a cool wash cycle is recommended. To restore the DWR finish, you may need to apply a spray-on or wash-in water repellent treatment after several washes. When storing, ensure the jacket is completely dry to prevent mildew. The fit is designed for layering, so consider your base and mid-layer thickness when selecting your size.
