FAQs

Is the Regatta Stormbreak Jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?

The Regatta Stormbreak Jacket is a waterproof shell designed primarily for protection against rain and wind. While it offers a barrier against the elements, it does not provide significant insulation for extreme cold. For cold weather, it is best worn over insulating layers like fleeces or thermal tops.

Can I use this jacket for high-intensity sports like running?

While it will keep you dry, its breathability might be limited for high-intensity activities. For sports involving significant exertion, you might experience internal condensation. It's more suited for less strenuous activities such as walking, hiking, or general outdoor use.

How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof over time?

Regular cleaning according to the care instructions is crucial. Avoid fabric softeners. Over time, the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may wear off. You can restore this by applying a specialist wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment, available from outdoor gear retailers.

Does the hood have adjustable drawcords?

The product description mentions a 'hooded neckline' but does not specify if it has adjustable drawcords. Typically, Regatta jackets in this range may feature a simple elasticated opening or a fixed hood for convenience.

What material is the jacket made from?

The Regatta Stormbreak Waterproof Jacket is made from 100% Polyester Hydrafort fabric, known for its waterproof and durable properties.

Are there any internal pockets?

The product description specifies 'two hand pockets.' It does not mention any internal pockets. For detailed pocket configurations, please refer to the product imagery or manufacturer's specific model specifications if available.

Is this jacket heavy?

No, the Regatta Stormbreak Jacket features a 'lightweight construction,' making it comfortable to wear and easy to pack without adding significant bulk.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem to be fully waterproof anymore.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. The waterproof coating (DWR) may need to be refreshed. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and consider using a wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment to restore water repellency.

Jacket feels damp inside after light rain.

This could be due to condensation from body heat rather than water penetration. Ensure adequate layering and ventilation if possible. If you suspect water ingress, check for tears or damaged seams and consider re-applying DWR.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Inspect the zipper for any fabric caught in the teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. You can also apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or even a graphite pencil to the teeth to help it move smoothly.

Unpleasant odor develops after use.

Wash the jacket according to the care instructions provided. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew growth. Proper ventilation during and after use can also help.

Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a technical wash designed for waterproof fabrics, or a small amount of liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and harsh detergents, as these can compromise the waterproof coating. 2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Ensure it is completely dry before storing. 3. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can damage the waterproof membrane. 4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing the jacket for long periods, which can affect its shape and membrane. > Info needed: Specific washing temperature and drying instructions from manufacturer label. Always refer to the care label inside the jacket for precise instructions.
