FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?
The Regatta Womens Bayletta II Jacket provides excellent waterproof and breathable protection, but it is not designed for significant insulation. For very cold winter weather, we recommend layering it over insulating garments like a fleece or down jacket.
What does 'Isotex 10000' mean?
Isotex 10000 refers to Regatta's proprietary waterproof and breathable fabric technology. '10000' signifies its hydrostatic head rating (10,000mm), meaning it can withstand 10,000mm of water pressure, ensuring strong waterproof performance. It also indicates a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24 hours.
How do I maintain the waterproof qualities of the jacket?
To maintain waterproofing, wash the jacket infrequently using a technical wash for waterproof clothing. Avoid fabric softeners and conventional detergents. Reapply a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment as needed when water no longer beads up on the fabric surface.
Does this jacket have an internal pocket?
Yes, the Regatta Womens Bayletta II Jacket features an internal security pocket, perfect for safely storing small valuables like your phone or keys.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash this jacket. Always follow the care label instructions, typically using a cold, gentle cycle with a technical wash designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Do not use bleach or fabric softener.
What is the fit like for this jacket?
Info needed: Specific fit details (e.g., regular, relaxed, athletic) are not provided. However, given it's a women's jacket designed for outdoor use and layering, it likely offers a comfortable, regular fit that allows for movement and accommodates layers underneath.
Are the zips also waterproof?
The jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish on the outer fabric and taped seams for full waterproof protection. While the main zip is likely water-resistant, it may not be fully waterproof unless specified as a 'waterproof zipper.' For full confidence, ensure the storm flap (if present) is properly fastened over the zip.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off.
This indicates the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish needs to be restored. Wash the jacket using a DWR-restoring wash-in product, or apply a spray-on DWR treatment after washing. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying.
Feeling clammy or sweaty inside the jacket.
While the jacket is breathable, excessive layering or high exertion can still lead to internal moisture. Try adjusting your layers, ventilating by slightly unzipping, or ensuring your base layers are moisture-wicking to prevent build-up.
Jacket seems to be leaking through the seams.
Inspect the taped seams for any signs of damage or peeling. If damaged, consider contacting the manufacturer for advice or repair options. For minor issues, seam sealant products can sometimes offer a temporary fix.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Setting up your Regatta Womens Bayletta II Jacket is as simple as putting it on.
- Unpack: Remove the jacket from its packaging.
- Adjust: Use the drawcord adjusters on the hood and the velcro fasteners on the cuffs to achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
- Layer: For optimal comfort, especially in varying temperatures, consider wearing appropriate base and mid-layers underneath based on the weather conditions. This jacket is designed to be worn over clothing.
Compatibility
- Layering: The jacket is designed to be worn over other clothing, such as t-shirts, long-sleeved tops, or fleeces. Its smooth taffeta lining helps it glide easily over layers.
- Accessories: Compatible with various outdoor accessories like hats, scarves, and gloves. The adjustable hood can fit over most headwear.
- Activity: Suitable for a wide range of outdoor and urban activities where waterproof protection is needed.
Care Instructions
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your jacket. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for specific instructions.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a technical wash specifically designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Avoid conventional detergents, as they can impair the DWR finish and breathability.
- Drying: Line dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric and taped seams.
- Do Not: Bleach, iron, dry clean, or use fabric softeners. Fabric softeners can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and compromise the DWR treatment.
- Restoring Water Repellency: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. You can restore it using a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment product available at outdoor retailers.
