FAQs

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

The Regatta Pack It Jacket III is primarily a waterproof and wind-resistant shell. While it can be layered with warmer clothing underneath for moderate cold, it is not designed as a heavily insulated winter coat for extreme cold.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the sizing chart provided in the product description. Measurements like chest circumference are key. For children's jackets, consider that they might wear layers underneath.

Can this jacket be put in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 30°C (warm). Follow the specific care instructions to maintain its properties.

What does 'packaway' mean?

Packaway means the jacket can be easily folded or rolled up into a compact size, often into its own pocket or a small accompanying stuff sack, making it convenient to carry when not in use.

What is the breathability rating?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs, indicating its capacity to allow water vapor to pass through the fabric.

How often should I re-apply waterproofing?

The original water repellent finish may wear off over time with washing and use. Re-proofing is typically needed when water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface. This can be done using specific DWR treatment sprays or washes, often after cleaning and a low-heat tumble dry.

Is the hood adjustable?

The hood is a 'grown-on' hood with an elasticated edge, which helps it stay in place. It is not separately adjustable with drawcords.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water repellent finish may need refreshing. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and then tumble dry on a low heat for 20 minutes to reactivate the durable water repellent (DWR) finish. If performance is still poor, consider a re-proofing spray suitable for polyamide fabrics.

Jacket feels damp inside after wear.

This could be due to insufficient breathability for intense activity or condensation. Ensure the jacket is zipped up properly. For very strenuous activity, consider a jacket with a higher breathability rating if this persists. Check that the garment is not too tight, allowing for air circulation.

Zip is difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zip is not caught. Try moving the zip up and down gently. If it remains stiff, a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant applied to the zip teeth can help.
