Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Professional 2 Layer Soft Shell Jacket in Blue (Medium) is designed for adult males seeking versatile protection from the elements. Its key benefit is providing water and wind resistance in a durable polyester construction. A potential caveat is that while water repellent, it may not be fully waterproof for prolonged heavy downpours. Key features include a hooded design, multiple zip pockets, and a fleece lining for comfort.

FAQs

What kind of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for cool, breezy conditions and light rain due to its wind-resistant and water-repellent properties. It is not designed for heavy downpours or extreme cold.

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

Wash the jacket on a 40°C cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and high heat drying or ironing. Reapplying a waterproofing treatment after washing can help maintain its performance.

Is the hood detachable?

The hood is described as 'Sew-On', indicating it is permanently attached to the jacket.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from Polyester softshell fabric with a contrast fleece lining.

How many pockets does it have and are they secure?

The jacket features 2 side pockets and 1 chest pocket, all equipped with zips for secure storage.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

While the fleece lining provides some warmth, this jacket is best as a shell layer. For very cold weather, layering with additional warm garments underneath is recommended.

Does the jacket offer breathability?

The polyester softshell fabric offers some breathability, but it is primarily designed for protection against wind and water. For high-intensity activities where maximum breathability is crucial, other specialized garments might be more suitable.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

Wash the jacket according to care instructions and consider applying a suitable fabric waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for softshell or waterproof-breathable fabrics.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a mild soap solution. Dry thoroughly and then apply a small amount of wax (like a graphite pencil tip or beeswax) to the teeth.

Fleece lining feels matted.

Ensure the jacket is not over-dried on high heat. Gentle tumble drying on low or air drying is best. Avoid ironing, which can flatten the fleece fibers.
