FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it protects against light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy or prolonged rain.

What is the fit of the Regatta Connie V?

It features a relaxed fit designed for comfort and ease of movement, providing enough room for layers underneath.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, it is machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, and avoid using fabric softeners to protect the fabric's properties.

Is the hood removable?

The jacket design includes a high-neck collar for warmth and coverage, but does not feature a hood.

Does this jacket block the wind?

Yes, the fabric is wind-resistant, which helps maintain body heat in breezy conditions.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the fabric in light rain

The DWR coating may have worn off; wash the garment and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.

Difficulty with the zipper

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and clean any trail debris or grit from the zipper track using a soft brush.

Pros and Cons

  • Adjustable hem helps seal out the elements

  • Not intended for heavy, sustained downpours

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is designed for a relaxed fit, allowing for base layers underneath without compromising mobility. To maintain the water-repellent performance, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and reduce breathability. Air drying is preferred over high-heat tumble drying to protect the integrity of the stretch fabric and the water-repellent treatment. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface after extensive use, consider applying a standard spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) refresh treatment.
