Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Professional Ablaze Printable Softshell Jacket is designed for active women who need reliable protection during the transition from autumn to winter. Featuring a three-layer construction that balances warmth with high breathability, this jacket is ideal for outdoor work or light trekking where movement is essential. While it provides excellent wind resistance and a water-repellent finish, users should note that it is water-resistant rather than fully waterproof for heavy, prolonged rain.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-resistant thanks to a DWR finish, which is perfect for light rain, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged rainfall.

Can I wear this in deep winter?

It is an excellent layering piece, but in extreme cold, you may want to wear a heavier insulated coat over it.

What is the sizing like?

The jacket uses standard UK sizing. Please refer to the specific size guide for a comfortable fit.

How do I clean the softshell fabric?

Machine wash on a cool setting without fabric softener, then air dry.

Is the fabric heavy?

No, it features a 265gsm weight, making it feel substantial and durable without being overly heavy or restrictive.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the fabric instead of beading off.

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket to remove dirt and apply a water-repellent spray treatment.

Feeling damp inside the jacket after intense activity.

While breathable, no jacket is 100% moisture-wicking. Ensure you are wearing a synthetic base layer rather than cotton.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent wind and water resistance for changing seasons
  • High level of breathability keeps you comfortable while moving
  • Stretchy material allows for a full range of motion
  • Durable 265gsm polyester construction resists everyday wear
  • Warm-backed fabric provides immediate insulation

Cons

  • Not fully waterproof in heavy downpours
  • Limited to one color option (Classic Red)
  • Requires proper DWR maintenance to remain water-repellent

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the jacket maintains its performance, avoid using fabric softeners during laundering, as these can strip the DWR coating. Wash on a gentle, cold cycle and hang to dry away from direct heat sources. If the jacket begins to absorb water rather than beading it off, consider applying a garment-safe DWR re-proofing spray. Because this is a softshell, it is designed for a layering system; it is best worn over a light moisture-wicking base layer for optimal thermal management.
