Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Waterproof Lyle IV Packaway Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from the elements during outdoor activities. Its key benefit lies in its waterproof and breathable Isolite 15000 fabric, ensuring comfort and dryness. A minor caveat is its specific material composition which may not be ideal for extreme cold without layering. This jacket offers practical features like taped seams for enhanced waterproofing and a packaway pocket that converts it into a compact belt bag, making it convenient for variable weather conditions.

FAQs

What is the primary material of this jacket?

The jacket is primarily made from Nylon, featuring Isolite 15000 fabric for waterproofing and breathability.

How do I pack the jacket into its belt bag?

Locate the internal packaway pocket. Turn the jacket inside out and fold it into this pocket until it forms a compact pouch, which can then be secured if it has a corresponding fastening or used as a belt bag.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket provides waterproof and windproof protection, but its insulation is minimal. For very cold weather, layering with warm mid-layers like fleece or insulated jackets is recommended.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 40°C on a delicate cycle. Avoid using fabric softener as it can impact the fabric's performance.

How often should I re-proof the jacket?

Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface and soaking into the fabric, typically after several washes or prolonged use.

What does 'Isolite 15000' mean?

Isolite 15000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology, with '15000' indicating a hydrostatic head rating of 15,000mm, meaning it can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure before leaking.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and apply a suitable re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. You can also lubricate the zipper teeth with a bit of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.

Jacket feels clammy inside during activity.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers that wick moisture. If the jacket is dirty, it may be affecting breathability; clean it according to care instructions. Check that ventilation options (like the main zipper) are utilized effectively.
