Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Arana Waterproof Soft Shell Jacket is an ideal choice for active adults seeking a versatile outer layer for hiking, commuting, or general outdoor use. Its core benefit lies in the combination of XPT stretch fabric and a DWR finish, providing a lightweight, breathable, and water-resistant barrier against the elements. While highly functional, users should note that as a softshell design, it is best suited for light-to-moderate rain rather than heavy downpours where a dedicated hardshell would be required.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

It features a water-resistant DWR finish designed to shed light rain and moisture, but it is not fully seam-sealed like a hardshell raincoat.

Can I wear this in the winter?

Yes, it can be used in winter as part of a layering system, though it is not a heavy-duty insulated winter jacket.

How do I ensure the right fit?

Use the adjustable wrist straps and hem drawcord to cinch the jacket closer to your body, ensuring a draft-free fit.

What does 'XPT' mean?

XPT refers to Regatta's X-treme Performance Technology, which prioritizes stretch, breathability, and lightweight protection.

Are the materials recycled?

Yes, this jacket is constructed using recycled polyester materials as part of Regatta’s commitment to sustainable manufacturing.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the fabric rather than beading up

The DWR finish may be wearing off. Clean the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.

Zipper feels stiff or difficult to slide

Check for dirt or debris trapped in the zipper teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; do not force it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and highly breathable for active use
  • Excellent wind resistance
  • Adjustable cuffs and hem for customized comfort
  • Secure, zippered storage compartments
  • Durable, recycled polyester fabric

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme, prolonged heavy rain
  • Softshell material offers less thermal insulation than heavy winter parkas
  • Limited to adult sizing options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Arana, follow these guidelines:

Setup:

  • Adjust the hem drawcord and wrist straps immediately after putting the jacket on to ensure it contours to your body shape.
  • Utilize the chest pocket for small, frequently used items like keys or a phone to keep weight balanced.

Compatibility:

  • Layering is recommended. Due to its breathable nature, this jacket functions best over moisture-wicking base layers or lightweight fleece mid-layers for colder days.

Care:

  • Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a specialized technical fabric detergent to maintain the integrity of the DWR finish.
  • Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip away water repellency.
  • Air dry whenever possible, or tumble dry on a low, cool setting if required by the care label.
