FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, this jacket features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish which makes it water-resistant, meaning it will repel light rain and splashes. It is not fully waterproof and may not be suitable for heavy or prolonged downpours.
How do I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleaching, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not iron or dry clean.
What is the purpose of the shockcord hem?
The shockcord hem allows you to adjust the fit of the jacket around your waist, helping to seal out wind and cold.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
This jacket provides wind resistance and some water repellency. For very cold weather, it is best worn as an outer layer over insulating mid-layers.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% Polyester.
Does it have a hood?
This specific model description does not mention a hood. It features a high-neck design.
Are there other colours available?
Yes, Regatta Professional Soft Shell Jackets are available in various colours and patterns, including Black, Grey, and Geometric designs.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside during rain.
The DWR finish may have diminished. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment. For heavy rain, a fully waterproof jacket is recommended.
Wind penetrating the jacket.
Ensure the full zip is fastened to the top and the shockcord hem is adjusted to create a tighter seal around the waist.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to clear any obstructions. Ensure the zip guard is properly aligned.
Jacket loses its water-repellent properties.
The DWR finish needs reapplication. Follow product instructions for DWR sprays or washes. Ensure the jacket is clean before reapplication.
