Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Uproar Softshell Jacket is designed for adult women seeking a versatile, weather-resistant outer layer for active pursuits. Its key benefit lies in its warm, wind-resistant, and water-repellent fabric that remains comfortable and quick-drying. A potential caveat is its 'Shaped Fit', which may not suit all body types.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, making it resistant to light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof and may not perform adequately in prolonged heavy downpours.

How do I wash the softshell jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C using a mild detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting and iron on a low heat if needed. Close all fasteners before washing and wash dark colours separately.

Can I wear a thick fleece under this jacket?

The jacket has a 'Shaped Fit'. While you can layer a thinner fleece or base layer underneath, a very bulky mid-layer might feel restrictive. Consider sizing up if you intend to wear very thick layers.

What does 'interactive' mean on some Regatta jackets?

Some Regatta softshell jackets are 'interactive', meaning they have a zip system that allows them to be zipped into compatible Regatta waterproof outer jackets, creating a two-in-one system for enhanced weather protection.

How often should I re-apply the water repellent finish?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's recommended to re-apply the DWR finish when you notice water is no longer beading and rolling off the fabric surface effectively.

What sizes are available?

The jacket is available in women's UK sizes 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, and 20. Note that only specific colourways are available in size 20.

Is the fabric stretchy?

Yes, the jacket is made from a warm-backed woven stretch softshell fabric, which provides flexibility and ease of movement.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels damp inside after light rain.

While the jacket has a water-repellent finish, it is not fully waterproof. For prolonged heavy rain, a waterproof jacket is recommended. Ensure the DWR finish is intact; re-apply if necessary.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any fabric. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Loss of water repellency.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. Use a specific DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor apparel. Follow the product's instructions carefully.

Jacket feels tight or restrictive.

This jacket has a 'Shaped Fit'. Consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear thicker layers underneath. Ensure the hem shockcord is adjusted for optimal comfort.
