FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this jacket?

The Regatta Carisbrooke Softshell Waterproof Jacket is designed to provide breathable, water-repellent protection for adult women during outdoor activities in variable weather conditions.

Is this jacket fully waterproof or water-resistant?

The jacket is described as water-repellent, meaning it can withstand light to moderate rain but may not be suitable for prolonged heavy downpours. Its breathability rating (15000g/m²/24hrs) also indicates it's designed for active use where moisture management is key.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the sizing information provided, which indicates measurements for various UK sizes. For example, UK size 10 corresponds to a 34-inch chest measurement.

Can the hood be removed?

Yes, the hood is detachable, allowing you to remove it for a different look or when it's not needed.

What kind of weather is this jacket best for?

It is ideal for mild to cool conditions with a chance of rain or wind, such as spring and autumn. It can also be layered with warmer clothing for colder weather.

What is the material composition?

The jacket is made from 70% Polyester and 30% Recycled Polyester.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash at 30°C, do not bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning. Always close fastenings before washing.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water repellent finish may need refreshing. Consider using a specific re-proofer spray suitable for technical outdoor clothing. Ensure the garment is clean before application.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

Ensure the inner layers are not trapping moisture. Check that the breathability rating of your base layers is appropriate. Clean the jacket as per care instructions, as dirt and oils can impede breathability.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Lubricate with a silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
