FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for cool to mild weather conditions where protection from wind and light to moderate rain is needed. It is not heavily insulated, making it ideal for layering in colder temperatures.

Can this jacket be worn for high-intensity sports?

Yes, due to its breathable and stretchable fabric, it is suitable for many high-intensity activities where freedom of movement and moisture management are important. However, for very extreme conditions or high-output activities, additional layers might be necessary.

How do I clean the jacket if it gets dirty?

The jacket can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent at a low temperature (30-40°C). Avoid using fabric softener. Refer to the care label for detailed instructions.

Is this jacket suitable for men?

This specific product listing is for a women's jacket (Size 16 UK). Regatta offers professional soft shell jackets in styles and sizes for men as well, which can be found under different product listings.

Can I add a custom logo to this jacket?

Yes, the jacket has a plain design and is described as 'printable,' making it suitable for adding custom logos or branding.

What does 'Shockcord Hem' mean?

A shockcord hem is an elasticated cord with a toggle or adjuster located at the bottom edge of the jacket. It allows you to tighten the hem to trap in warmth and prevent wind from entering.

How do I maintain its waterproof features?

To maintain its waterproof capabilities, avoid fabric softeners when washing and consider using a technical wash and re-proofing spray periodically, especially if you notice water is no longer beading on the surface.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not fully waterproof after washing

Fabric softeners or harsh detergents can impair water repellency. Ensure only mild detergents were used and consider a re-proofing treatment designed for technical outerwear.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. If it persists, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.

Jacket feels restrictive

Ensure the size is correct and that you are not wearing excessively thick layers underneath. The stretch fabric offers some give, but fit is crucial for mobility.

Print is peeling or damaged

Avoid high-heat drying and ironing directly on the printed area. Follow the care instructions meticulously, especially regarding washing and drying temperatures.

Compatibility:
