FAQs

What makes this jacket 'printable'?

The fabric is treated and constructed in a way that allows inks and transfers to adhere effectively without damaging the material's protective qualities. It's designed for methods like screen, transfer, and vinyl printing.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket has a durable water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain and showers. For prolonged or heavy downpours, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

How do I clean the jacket?

It requires a cool machine wash using pure soap flakes. Avoid using regular detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach, as these can compromise the fabric's performance.

Can I iron the jacket?

It is best to avoid ironing directly on the jacket. If absolutely necessary, use a very low heat setting and ensure any printed areas are protected. Air drying is the recommended method.

What does 'warm backed woven softshell' mean?

This describes the fabric construction. 'Softshell' indicates a flexible, comfortable material. 'Woven' refers to the fabric's structure, and 'warm backed' means it has an inner layer designed for insulation and comfort.

What is a tearaway label?

A tearaway label is designed to be easily removed without leaving stitches or damaging the garment, making it convenient for customisation or for those who find labels uncomfortable.

What are the available sizes and colours?

This specific product is a Black, Size L jacket. The Regatta Standout Mens Ablaze range is available in various sizes and colours, as listed in the product's sibling information.

Troubleshooting

Water-repellency is decreasing

Ensure you are following the specific washing instructions using pure soap flakes and avoiding fabric softeners. Consider applying a suitable re-waterproofing treatment designed for technical outerwear.

Print is not adhering well

Ensure the fabric surface is clean and dry before printing. Verify that the correct printing method and materials (ink, transfer paper, vinyl) are being used for polyester softshell. Check the temperature and pressure settings for your specific printing technique.

Jacket feels stiff or loses flexibility

This may be due to improper washing or drying. Avoid high heat. Re-washing with pure soap flakes and air drying might help restore some flexibility. Do not use bleach or strong detergents.

Zipper is difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specific zipper lubricant can help if it feels stiff.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for customisation with multiple printing methods.
  • Provides good protection against wind and light rain.
  • Comfortable and breathable for active use.
  • Durable construction for long-lasting wear.
  • Features practical elements like adjustable hem and zip guard.

Cons

  • Requires specific washing instructions (cool wash, pure soap flakes) to maintain performance.
  • May not be suitable for heavy rain.
  • The 'printable' nature might be the primary focus, potentially overshadowing other standalone jacket features for some users.
  • Tearaway label needs to be removed, which is an extra step for end-users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires minimal setup, primarily focusing on its care to maintain its functionality and printability.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Use a cool machine wash with pure soap flakes. Avoid harsh detergents which can damage the fabric's finish and membrane.
  • Drying: It is recommended to air dry the jacket. Tumble drying may damage the water-repellent finish and fabric structure.
  • Ironing: Avoid direct ironing, especially on printed areas. If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and protect printed graphics.

Compatibility:

  • Printing Methods: The fabric is highly compatible with screen printing, transfer printing, and vinyl printing. Ensure the printing method and materials used are suitable for polyester softshell fabrics.
  • Layering: Its lightweight and breathable design makes it suitable for layering over base layers or fleeces in colder conditions.
