Product Information

Full details

Designed for men working in active environments, the Regatta Professional Octagon II Printable 3 Layer Softshell Jacket offers a waterproof, breathable, and wind-resistant solution. Its compact and bulk-free design ensures agility, while the durable water repellent finish and adjustable hem provide practical protection. A potential consideration is that while highly functional, it's designed for professional use and may not feature the same aesthetic elements as casual wear.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket features a waterproof and breathable fabric with a DWR finish, making it effective against light to moderate rain. For prolonged heavy downpours, additional waterproof layers may be necessary.

Can I print logos or branding on this jacket?

Yes, the 'Printable' designation in the product name indicates that this softshell is designed to be compatible with various printing methods for custom branding or logos.

What does '3 Layer' refer to in the product description?

The '3 Layer' refers to the construction of the fabric, typically consisting of an outer protective layer, a waterproof/breathable membrane in the middle, and an inner lining for comfort and warmth.

How do I choose the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing guide for men's apparel. The jacket is designed for adult males, and available sizes range from XS to XXXXL (depending on specific color/variant availability).

What is the primary benefit of the Softshell XPT fabric?

Softshell XPT fabric offers a balance of protection from the elements (waterproof, wind-resistant) with enhanced comfort through breathability and flexibility, all in a lightweight construction.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are zipped for secure closure, and the jacket fabric itself is waterproof. However, the zippers themselves are typically not fully waterproof, so prolonged submersion or very heavy rain might allow some moisture ingress.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

The jacket offers wind resistance and a warm-backed fabric which provides insulation. For extreme cold, it is best used as an outer shell layer over insulating garments.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and apply a suitable waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant applied to the zipper teeth can help.

Reduced breathability leading to internal dampness

Check the inner fabric for dirt or residue, which can impede breathability. Clean the jacket thoroughly following the care instructions. Ensure no fabric softener was used, as it can block pores.

Jacket feels less windproof

Ensure the hem shockcord is tightened securely. Check for any damage to the fabric or seams that might allow air penetration.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance for varied conditions.
  • Wind-resistant construction enhances comfort in exposed environments.
  • Lightweight and non-bulky design promotes freedom of movement.
  • Durable water repellent finish ensures longevity and continued protection.
  • Practical pocket configuration for secure storage.
  • Adjustable hem allows for a personalized and draft-free fit.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for professional/work use, aesthetic may be functional over fashionable.
  • While waterproof, may not be suitable for prolonged heavy downpours without additional layers.
  • Specific care instructions are required to maintain fabric performance.
  • Only one chest pocket may limit storage options for some users.
  • Adjustable hem shockcord may require occasional tightening.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no assembly and is ready to wear upon purchase. It is designed for general male apparel sizing. To maintain the performance of the waterproof and breathable fabric, as well as the DWR finish, specific care is recommended:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (delicate cycle). Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergent or fabric softener.
  • Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly. It is recommended to spin at a moderate speed.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. For best results, dry with tennis balls.
  • Re-proofing: For optimal water repellency, re-apply a waterproofing treatment (e.g., a spray-on or wash-in proofer) after several washes or when water no longer beads on the surface. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. Avoid direct heat sources.
