The Regatta Frankie Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from wet and windy weather during everyday outdoor activities. Its key benefit lies in the waterproof and breathable Isotex 15000 fabric, offering comfort and dryness. A potential caveat is that while it has a rugged canvas look, it is made of polyester, which might not appeal to those specifically seeking natural fibers for a canvas feel.

Isotex 15000 is Regatta's own technical fabric that is waterproof and breathable. The '15000' rating indicates it can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure and has a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours, meaning it's effective at keeping you dry from both external rain and internal sweat.
You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C using a mild liquid detergent. Rinse thoroughly and do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. It should be line dried.
The jacket is designed for waterproof protection and is lightweight. For very cold weather, it's recommended to layer appropriate thermal clothing underneath for warmth.
No, the hood is grown-on, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish helps water bead and roll off the surface of the fabric, preventing it from soaking in and maintaining the breathability of the jacket, especially in light rain or spray.
Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in a compressed state for long periods, as this can affect the fabric's performance and DWR treatment. Hanging it up is ideal.
Taped seams mean that the stitches on the inside of the jacket are covered with a waterproof tape. This prevents water from seeping through the small holes made by the needle during the sewing process, ensuring full waterproofing.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a suitable DWR product following the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-proofing.
Gently clean the zippers with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil to the zipper teeth.
This can be due to high humidity or insufficient ventilation. Ensure all vents are open if present, and consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers. If the issue persists, the breathability may be compromised by dirt; clean the jacket.
Check if the taped seams are damaged or peeling. If so, the jacket's waterproof integrity is compromised and may require repair or replacement.
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear.
Compatibility: Designed for adult males, available in various sizes.
Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance:
