Product Information

Full details

This waterproof and breathable Regatta Levita jacket is designed for women seeking reliable protection against wet weather. Its key benefit is the Isotex stretch fabric, offering comfort and flattering fit through an adjustable waist. A potential caveat is that while waterproof, it may not be suitable for extreme downpours without additional layers. Key features include taped seams, a grown-on adjustable hood, multiple pockets, and a comfortable mesh/taffeta lining.

FAQs

What is the breathability rating of the fabric?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 20,000 g/m²/24 hours, indicating good performance in allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is grown-on, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket, but it features concealed adjusters for a secure fit.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket provides waterproof and windproof protection, but it is not heavily insulated. For cold weather, it is best worn as an outer shell layered over warm mid-layers.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 40°C using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.

What does 'Durable Water Repellent' mean?

DWR is a finish applied to the outer fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to maintain the fabric's water resistance and breathability.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The lower pockets have snap fastenings, and the chest pocket is zipped. While designed to keep contents dry, they are not rated as fully submersible waterproof pockets.

Troubleshooting

Water penetrating the fabric

Ensure all seams are intact and the DWR finish is still active. Reapply a DWR treatment if necessary. Check that all zips and closures are properly fastened.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This can occur during high exertion. Ensure the jacket is zipped up correctly to allow the breathable membrane to function. Consider wearing moisture-wicking layers underneath.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and mild soap. Dry thoroughly and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track.
