FAQs

What does Isotex stretch 15000 mean?

Isotex stretch 15000 refers to Regatta's proprietary fabric technology. '15000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 15,000mm, meaning the fabric can withstand a column of water 15,000mm high before leaking. 'Stretch' means the fabric has elastic properties for added comfort and mobility.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

Yes, the jacket can be worn in cold weather. It is designed as an outer shell, so you can layer insulating mid-layers (like fleece or a down jacket) underneath to adapt to colder temperatures.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. Generally, ensure there is enough room to comfortably wear layers underneath without the jacket feeling restrictive in the shoulders or arms.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the jacket features a technical hood designed for adjustability to provide optimal protection against wind and rain.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Warranty information typically varies by retailer and region. Please check the product packaging or contact the retailer where you purchased the jacket for specific warranty details.

Can I machine dry this jacket?

No, it is recommended to hang dry the jacket away from direct heat or sunlight. Tumble drying can damage the waterproof and breathable properties of the fabric.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof anymore

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Clean the jacket and apply a re-proofing treatment suitable for waterproof fabrics.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Ensure no debris is caught in the teeth. Once dry, a silicone-based lubricant can be applied sparingly to the zipper teeth.

Inner lining feels damp after activity

Ensure all vents (if present) are open and that you are not overheating. The jacket is breathable, but intense activity can still generate significant moisture. Check that the garment was washed correctly (without fabric softener, which can impede breathability).

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing for challenging weather.
  • Breathable material keeps you comfortable during activity.
  • Stretch fabric allows for a full range of motion.

  • Secure storage with zipped pockets.

Cons

  • May be too technical for casual, everyday wear.
  • Specific to men's fit, not suitable for all body types.
  • Primary focus on performance might mean fewer aesthetic options.
