FAQs
What does 'Isotex 10000' mean?
Isotex 10000 is Regatta's technology for waterproof, breathable, and windproof fabrics. The '10000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 10,000mm (waterproofness) and a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24 hours.
Is the hood removable?
Yes, the hood is detachable and features an adjustable drawstring for a better fit.
Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?
Yes, the jacket is machine washable at 40°C with similar colors, using a liquid detergent.
How do I maintain the waterproof properties?
To maintain water repellency, it's recommended to periodically re-apply a DWR finish according to the product's instructions, especially after washing.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% recycled polyester with reinforced fabric.
How many pockets does it have?
It features two lower zipped pockets and one internal zipped security pocket.
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
This jacket provides waterproof and windproof protection, suitable for layering in cooler conditions. It is not insulated for extreme cold on its own.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is leaking water
Ensure all seams are properly sealed. If leakage persists, the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need reapplication. Follow care instructions for re-treatment.
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the teeth and work the zipper back and forth.
Jacket feels clammy inside
This can be due to high humidity or intense activity. Ensure the hood and cuffs are adjusted to allow for some airflow. The jacket's breathability is rated 10,000g/m²/24 hours; for very high exertion, consider a more technical garment.
Pilling or fuzz on the inside lining
Minor pilling can occur with normal wear and washing of fabric. Ensure the garment is washed and dried according to care instructions, and avoid harsh rubbing against abrasive surfaces.
