FAQs

Is the Regatta Carisbrooke jacket fully waterproof?

No, the jacket features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can repel light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof and may not perform well in prolonged or heavy downpours.

What is the breathability rating of this jacket?

The jacket has a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours, indicating good performance in allowing moisture vapor to escape.

Can I remove the hood permanently?

The hood is detachable via a zipper and can be removed for a different look or when not needed. It can be reattached as required.

What kind of activities is this jacket best suited for?

It is ideal for everyday wear, light outdoor activities, walking, and commuting in mixed or changeable weather conditions where wind and light rain protection are beneficial.

How do I clean the jacket to maintain its water repellency?

Wash the jacket inside out with similar colors using a cold or warm cycle. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not dry clean.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from 100% polyester Softshell XPT fabric with a honeycomb backing.

Are there other colors available for this jacket?

Yes, the Regatta Carisbrooke Softshell Jacket is available in various colors, including Pale Lilac and Purple, in addition to Pink.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

Reapply a DWR treatment suitable for softshell fabrics following product instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before reapplication.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

Ensure the inner fabric is clean and free of dirt or debris. Check that you are not wearing excessive base layers that may be trapping moisture. Consider washing the jacket according to care instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Hood drawcords are tangled or difficult to adjust.

Carefully untangle the cords. If they are consistently difficult to move, check for fraying or damage to the cord or its housing.
