FAQs

What does Isotex 15000 mean?

Isotex 15000 is a waterproof and breathable fabric technology. '15000' refers to the hydrostatic head rating, meaning the fabric can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure before leaking, and its breathability rating is typically around 15,000g/m²/24h, indicating good moisture vapor transfer.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

The Regatta Oakhowe Jacket is primarily a shell designed for protection against rain and wind. While it can be layered over warm clothing for insulation in colder temperatures, it does not have its own insulating fill.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C (86°F) with a technical wash or mild liquid detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner or bleach. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low heat or line dry.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the hood is typically designed with adjusters to allow for a secure and comfortable fit around the face.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. Please refer to the product packaging or the retailer's website for specific warranty details.

Can I use this jacket for activities other than hiking?

Absolutely. Its waterproof and breathable features make it suitable for various outdoor pursuits such as camping, walking, cycling, and even general everyday wear during inclement weather.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

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

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly and then apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.

Breathability seems reduced.

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores. Wash according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Consider a specific technical wash.

Hood detachment mechanism is stuck.

Check for any obstructions around the attachment points. Ensure the zipper or snaps are clean and free of debris. Gently try to dislodge any minor blockages.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable performance
  • Durable construction suitable for rugged use
  • Versatile with a detachable hood
  • Effective protection against wind and rain

Cons

  • Primarily designed for technical outdoor use, may be less suited for casual fashion
  • Polyester material might not offer the same warmth as insulated jackets
  • Fit may vary; ensure correct sizing for optimal comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Regatta Oakhowe Jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear out of the package. Its primary function is outerwear, making it compatible with a wide range of casual and hiking attire. For care, it is recommended to machine wash the jacket according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede the fabric's breathability and waterproofing properties. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry. Periodically, consider using a reproofing spray designed for waterproof outerwear to maintain the fabric's water-repellent finish, especially after several washes or prolonged heavy use.
