FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

The Ablaze jacket is water-resistant and breathable, meaning it is designed to keep you dry in light to moderate rain, but it is not classified as a fully waterproof heavy-duty shell.

Can I wash this in a standard washing machine?

Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend using a cool cycle and avoiding fabric softeners to protect the technical membrane and water-repellent finish.

Does the fabric restrict movement?

No, the jacket features a natural stretch fabric that is specifically designed to move with the body, providing excellent flexibility for active work.

Is the jacket suitable for cold weather?

It provides a good level of warmth thanks to the warm-backed design, making it suitable for autumn and spring, or as part of a layering system in deeper winter.

How do I ensure a good fit?

The jacket follows standard sizing. Use a tape measure to check your chest size and compare it against the provided size chart to ensure a comfortable fit.

What type of printing works best on this fabric?

The material is specifically designed for screen, transfer, and vinyl printing. Always consult with a professional printer to confirm the best ink or transfer for softshell polyester.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the outer fabric

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Re-apply a specialist DWR spray treatment to restore water bead-off performance.

Difficulty in getting prints to adhere

Ensure the printer is using specific heat-transfer vinyl or inks compatible with softshell fabrics and low-temperature applications to avoid damaging the membrane.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement due to natural stretch fabric
  • Breathable design prevents overheating during activity
  • Wind-resistant membrane offers reliable protection in exposed areas
  • Highly suitable for custom corporate branding
  • Soft, warm backing adds immediate comfort in cooler conditions

  • Polyester construction requires attention to heat settings during washing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Ablaze jacket, always follow the care label instructions. Typically, you should machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-repellent finish and breathability of the membrane. Hang-dry the garment in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. If you intend to apply corporate branding, ensure your print provider is aware that this is a softshell fabric so they can select the appropriate ink or transfer method for polyester materials.
