Regatta Frankie Waterproof Jacket - Red - XL

Isotex 15000 refers to Regatta's proprietary waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '15000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 15,000mm (waterproofness) and a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours (allowing 15,000g of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours).

The jacket itself is waterproof and windproof, offering protection against the elements. For very cold weather, it is designed to be layered over warm insulating garments like fleece or down jackets. The jacket itself does not provide significant insulation.

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 30°C using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and biological detergents. Always check the care label inside the jacket for specific instructions.

Periodically re-apply a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish using a suitable spray or wash-in product after cleaning the jacket. This helps water bead and roll off the fabric's surface.

Specific pocket dimensions are not provided, but the description notes two lower zipped pockets and one zipped chest pocket, designed for practical storage of everyday items like keys, phones, or wallets.

No, the jacket features a grown-on hood with drawcords, meaning it is permanently attached and not detachable.

Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for information on exchanges or returns based on sizing issues. This guide does not cover retailer-specific policies.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to the product instructions after cleaning the jacket.

Ensure all seams are properly taped from the factory. If leakage persists and the jacket is within its warranty period, contact customer support. Minor seam damage may require professional repair.

Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth to help it glide smoothly.

This can occur if the breathability is compromised or if worn in very high humidity. Ensure inner layers are moisture-wicking and avoid over-layering. Check that the DWR is intact, as a saturated outer face can reduce breathability.
