Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Malana Softshell Jacket is designed for adult women seeking comfortable and unrestrictive outerwear for walks, hikes, and everyday activities. Its key benefit is providing excellent freedom of movement thanks to Reach Technology and active stretch fabric, allowing for unrestricted arm lift. A potential caveat is that it functions best as a layering piece, offering moderate warmth rather than heavy insulation.

FAQs

What is Reach Technology?

Reach Technology refers to the design feature of underarm gussets that allows for a greater range of motion and unrestricted arm movement, making it ideal for activities where arm mobility is crucial.

Is this jacket waterproof?

The Malana Softshell Jacket is not fully waterproof. It is water-resistant and wind-resistant, suitable for light rain or wind, but for heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof outer shell is recommended.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from a 214gsm active stretch fabric, consisting of 96% polyester and 4% elastane, with a marl finish and a terry backing for added comfort.

Can I wear this jacket in winter?

It can be worn in winter as a mid-layer. On its own, it provides moderate warmth suitable for milder winter days or as a layer under a more insulated jacket for colder conditions.

How should I wash the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and tumble dry on a low setting or line dry. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning.

What are the pocket features?

The jacket features two zipped lower pockets, providing secure storage for essentials like keys, a phone, or snacks.

Who is this jacket designed for?

This jacket is designed for adult women seeking comfortable and unrestrictive outerwear for outdoor activities such as walking and hiking, as well as for everyday casual wear.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap or wax. Ensure the fabric around the zipper is smooth before attempting to zip.

Jacket feels restrictive despite the stretch fabric

Ensure you have the correct size. The jacket is designed for active movement, but if it feels too tight, consider sizing up. Also, check that the underarm gussets are not obstructed.

Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface

This can sometimes occur with softshell fabrics, especially with friction. Follow the care instructions carefully, wash inside out, and avoid abrasive contact. Pilling does not typically affect the performance of the garment.

Stretch binding on cuffs is losing elasticity

Avoid excessive heat during drying, as this can degrade elastic. Follow the recommended low heat or air dry instructions. Do not iron the binding.
