Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Highton Stretch Padded Waterproof Jacket is designed for active adults who demand both weather protection and freedom of movement during outdoor activities. By combining ISOTEX 20000 waterproof fabric with THERMOGUARD insulation, it offers an effective balance of warmth and breathability, making it ideal for wet, chilly hikes; however, users should note that while it is highly protective, the insulation is lightweight and may require additional layering in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter mountaineering?

It is excellent for cold, wet, and windy conditions. For extreme sub-zero mountaineering, consider adding a warmer mid-layer underneath.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is a grown-on technical design for maximum weather protection.

How should I measure for the right fit?

Measure your chest at the widest point. Since this is an active-fit garment, consider sizing up if you plan to wear thick, bulky sweaters underneath.

What is ISOTEX 20000?

It is a waterproof, windproof, and breathable technology used by Regatta, where 20,000 indicates a high level of hydrostatic head performance.

Can I use this for everyday city wear?

Yes, its sleek design makes it just as appropriate for daily commuting as it is for hiking.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the fabric surface instead of beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore the finish.

Feeling damp inside the jacket despite no leaks

This is often caused by trapped body vapor. Ensure you are layering with moisture-wicking base layers rather than cotton, and use the jacket's adjustment points to manage ventilation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-level waterproof rating (ISOTEX 20000)
  • Stretch fabric allows for excellent mobility on uneven terrain
  • Comprehensive hood adjustment for high-wind scenarios
  • Ample storage with four secure zipped pockets

Cons

  • Lightweight insulation might need extra layers in extreme cold
  • Requires proper maintenance to keep the DWR finish effective
  • Polyester construction is durable but less breathable than premium membrane alternatives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear. Avoid heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting to help reactivate the DWR finish.
  3. Compatibility: The jacket is designed to be worn over standard base layers and mid-weight fleece tops. The adjustable cuffs fit well over most hiking gloves.
  4. Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place to prevent mildew and to ensure the insulation retains its loft.
