Full details

Its key benefit is providing excellent windproof, showerproof, and stretch capabilities for active use. A potential caveat is that it is a softshell, offering good water resistance but not full waterproofing for heavy rain conditions. This jacket features a blend of 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane, offering a soft feel with a brushed back and a durable woven construction, suitable for work or leisure.

FAQs

What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?

This jacket is best suited for mild to cool weather conditions, offering protection against wind and light showers. It is not designed for heavy rain or extreme cold.

Can this jacket be worn for sports?

Yes, the stretch fabric and windproof features make it suitable for various outdoor activities and sports where protection from the elements and freedom of movement are important.

How do I check if I have the correct size?

The jacket should fit comfortably over base layers or a light fleece without feeling tight. Check the product's size guide for specific measurements. Movement should be unrestricted, especially in the shoulders and arms.

Is this jacket suitable for professional work environments?

Yes, the Regatta Professional line is designed for work environments. Features like durability, multiple pockets, and a professional appearance make it suitable for many outdoor professions.

What does GRS Certified mean?

GRS stands for Global Recycled Standard. It certifies that the materials used in the jacket contain verified recycled content, ensuring a commitment to using recycled materials in production.

How durable is the material?

The jacket is made from a woven polyester and elastane blend, designed for durability. The 2-layer construction aims to withstand typical wear and tear associated with outdoor or work activities.

Can I put patches or embroidery on this jacket?

The jacket is designed with 'access for decoration' in mind, suggesting it is suitable for customisation with embroidery or other decoration methods. However, it is always recommended to test on a small, inconspicuous area first or consult with a professional decorator.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels restrictive.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. The stretch fabric should allow for movement; if significantly restricted, check if the size is appropriate or if there are internal obstructions.

Water is soaking through.

This is a showerproof jacket, not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, consider a waterproof outer shell. Ensure the zips are fully closed and check for any damage to the fabric.

Pockets are difficult to zip.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zip. If the zip is stiff, try a graphite pencil or a dry lubricant on the teeth (avoiding fabric). Ensure zips are fastened before washing.

Zipper pull breaks.

A temporary fix can be made using a paperclip or a key ring through the zip slider's hole. For a permanent fix, consider professional repair or zip replacement.
