Full details

The Regatta Lyle IV men's waterproof jacket in grey is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is its waterproof and breathable Isotex 5000 fabric, offering comfort and dryness. A minor caveat is its lightweight construction, which may be less suitable for extreme cold without layering. This jacket is ideal for hiking, walking, and festivals, providing essential weather protection in a packable design.

FAQs

What does 'Isotex 5000' mean?

Isotex 5000 refers to Regatta's own-brand waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '5000' indicates a hydrostatic head of 5000mm, meaning it can withstand 5000mm of water pressure before leaking, and a breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24h, indicating how much water vapor can pass through the fabric.

How do I pack the jacket into its bag?

Typically, there's a designated pocket or an internal pouch. Fold the jacket neatly, starting with the sleeves, then the body, and roll or fold it tightly into the designated pouch. Refer to any included tags for specific folding instructions.

Is this jacket suitable for winter hiking?

While the jacket offers waterproof and windproof protection, its lightweight nature means it is best suited as an outer shell layer for winter. You will need to wear warm layers underneath for insulation in colder temperatures.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with mild detergent at 30°C. Avoid fabric softeners and do not tumble dry or iron.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Specific warranty details are best obtained from the retailer at the point of purchase or directly from Regatta's official website. Typically, outdoor apparel has a warranty against manufacturing defects.

How do I maintain the jacket's water repellency?

Regular washing with appropriate detergent and avoiding fabric softeners helps. For persistent issues, using a Nikwax or Grangers wash-in or spray-on waterproofer after cleaning is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof

Ensure the jacket is clean and free of dirt or residues. Re-apply a suitable fabric waterproofing treatment as per product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow to dry completely before trying to use it again. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can help lubricate the teeth.

Hood adjustment is loose

Check the drawcord and toggle. Ensure the toggle is secured properly to maintain tension. If the drawcord is frayed, it may need to be replaced.
