FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold weather?

No, the Regatta Stormbreak is a lightweight waterproof shell jacket and does not offer significant insulation. For cold weather, you will need to wear insulating layers underneath.

How waterproof is the Hydrafort fabric?

Hydrafort fabric is Regatta's proprietary waterproof technology, combined with sealed seams, designed to keep you dry in typical rainy conditions. It offers reliable protection against rain and wind.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, it can be machine washed on a cold (30°C) gentle cycle. It is recommended to use a specialist technical cleaner for waterproof garments and avoid conventional detergents or fabric softeners to preserve its waterproof properties. Always check the care label.

Does this jacket have adjustable features?

The jacket features a hooded neckline and elasticated cuffs. The hood is designed to offer protection, and the cuffs help seal out elements, contributing to a secure fit.

What kind of activities is this jacket best for?

It is ideal for casual outdoor activities such as walking, light hiking, commuting, and general everyday use where reliable waterproof protection is needed. It functions well as a protective outer layer.

Is the jacket breathable?

While the Hydrafort fabric is waterproof, its breathability is moderate. For highly strenuous activities, condensation can still occur inside. It's best suited for activities where high levels of breathability aren't the primary concern, or for layering effectively.

Troubleshooting

Jacket seems to be 'wetting out' (water not beading on the surface).

This indicates the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating is wearing off. Wash the jacket following care instructions, and if the issue persists, apply a suitable re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof fabrics.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush to remove dirt or debris. A silicone-based zipper lubricant can also help smooth its operation.

Jacket feels damp inside, even without visible leaks.

Condensation can build up inside if there's a significant temperature difference or if you're exerting yourself heavily. While the jacket is waterproof, it's not fully breathable. Ensure you're wearing appropriate layers to manage moisture, and consider unzipping slightly for ventilation when possible.

Unpleasant odor develops in the jacket.

Wash the jacket according to the care instructions using a technical cleaner designed for outdoor gear. Ensure it is thoroughly dried before storage to prevent mildew.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

The Regatta Stormbreak Jacket requires no complex setup. Simply unzip, put it on, and zip it up. Adjust the hood if needed. Its 'throw-on' design makes it ideal for sudden weather changes.

Compatibility

This jacket is designed for adult males. Made from 100% polyester, it is compatible with most outdoor clothing layers, such as fleeces, base layers, and t-shirts. Its green color and classic design make it a versatile addition to any casual outdoor wardrobe.

Care Instructions

Proper care is crucial to maintain the jacket's waterproof performance and longevity. Always check the garment's specific care label for the most accurate instructions.

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with a gentle cycle. Use a technical wash designed for waterproof fabrics, avoiding conventional detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach, as these can degrade the waterproofing. Fasten all zippers and closures before washing.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat. Excessive heat can damage the waterproof membrane. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron.
  4. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
  5. Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, you may need to re-proof the jacket using a spray-on or wash-in re-proofer designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Follow the re-proofer product's instructions carefully.
