Regatta Professional Venturer 3 Layer Hooded Softshell Jacket - Grey

The jacket features a 'water repellent' finish and a 'waterproof and breathable 3-layer membrane'. While it offers excellent protection against light rain and moisture, 'water repellent' means water beads off, whereas fully 'waterproof' typically refers to garments that can withstand prolonged, heavy downpours without saturation. For extreme conditions, additional waterproof layers might be advisable.

Softshell XPT is a fabric technology from Regatta Professional designed to provide enhanced performance. It typically signifies a lightweight, stretchy fabric that combines wind resistance, water repellency, and breathability, often with a warm-backed construction for comfort.

Info needed: specific washing instructions. Generally, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild, technical outerwear-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Air dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting to help maintain the DWR finish.

The jacket's wind-resistant and warm-backed design makes it suitable for cooler weather. However, for very cold winter conditions, it is recommended to wear it as part of a layering system with appropriate base and mid-layers for optimal warmth, as softshells are not insulated for extreme cold.

The jacket is equipped with two zipped lower pockets and one zipped chest pocket, providing secure and convenient storage options for your essentials.

Yes, the jacket is designed to be ideal for screen, transfer, and vinyl printing, making it an excellent choice for corporate branding, team uniforms, or personalized workwear.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or re-applied. Try tumble drying the jacket on a low heat setting for 20 minutes (if care label permits) to reactivate the existing DWR. If that doesn't work, apply a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in product specifically designed for technical outerwear.

This could indicate a build-up of dirt, sweat, or detergent residue clogging the fabric's pores. Wash the jacket according to the care label instructions, ensuring you use a technical outerwear-specific cleaner and rinse thoroughly to remove all residues. Avoid fabric softeners.

First, check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth and carefully remove it. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., paraffin wax or a specialized zipper lubricant) to the teeth and gently work the slider back and forth.

Inspect the shockcords and cord locks. Ensure the cord is properly threaded through the lock mechanism. If the cord lock appears damaged or worn, it might need replacement. For cuffs, ensure the hook-and-loop fasteners are clean and free of debris.
