FAQs

What does 'Isotex 15000' mean?

Isotex 15000 is Regatta's own technology, meaning the fabric provides 15,000mm of hydrostatic head (waterproofness) and 15,000g/m²/24hrs of breathability. This offers good protection from rain and allows moisture vapor to escape.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

Yes, the jacket is designed for layering. You can wear a warm fleece or insulated layer underneath for added warmth in colder temperatures.

Are the seams really waterproof?

Yes, the jacket features taped seams. This means the stitching lines are covered with a waterproof tape, preventing water from seeping through the needle holes.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged storage in a compressed state, as this can affect the fabric's performance over time. Hanging is recommended.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the grown-on hood features drawcords that allow you to adjust the fit around your face for better protection against wind and rain.

What is the difference between this and a 'shell' jacket?

A 'shell' jacket is typically a waterproof and windproof outer layer designed for protection. This Regatta jacket is a type of shell jacket, focusing on waterproofness and breathability for various outdoor conditions.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively

Wash the jacket according to care instructions and re-apply a DWR treatment. Ensure no detergent residue remains, as this can affect performance.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Inner lining feels clammy during activity

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture. While breathable, heavy exertion can still lead to internal moisture if the base layer doesn't manage sweat effectively.

Jacket feels noisy when moving

This is common with some waterproof fabrics. The 'crinkling' sound usually reduces with wear and washing. Ensure the fabric is not overly stiff from lack of use or care.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup. It is ready to wear upon purchase. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use for maximum protection.

Compatibility: The Shorebay jacket is designed as outerwear. It can be layered over t-shirts, sweaters, or fleeces depending on the temperature.

Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's waterproof and breathable properties:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) using a liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergents or fabric softeners, as they can damage the fabric's performance.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse twice to remove all detergent.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Alternatively, hang to dry away from direct heat.
  4. Re-proofing: For optimal water repellency, re-apply a water-repellent finish (such as Nikwax or Grangers) after washing and drying, following the product's instructions.
