Regatta Arec III Softshell Jacket - Black - XXL

Its primary purpose is to serve as a versatile midlayer, offering wind resistance, water repellency, and flexibility for outdoor activities and casual wear.

The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or drizzle. For prolonged or heavy rainfall, it is recommended to wear it under a waterproof outer shell.

The jacket is crafted from 96% Polyester and 4% Elastane woven Softshell stretch fabric.

It is machine washable. Use a mild detergent and a gentle cycle, typically at 30-40°C. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

Yes, it can be worn on its own in mild to cool, dry conditions where wind and light moisture protection are needed. For colder weather, it is best used as a layering piece.

The jacket provides a good level of insulation as a midlayer by trapping body heat and blocking wind. However, it is not heavily insulated and may require additional layers for very cold temperatures.

To maintain water repellency, avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners during washing. Periodically re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment using a spray or wash-in product.

The water-repellent finish may need refreshing. Consider using a specialized re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. If worn as a midlayer, check that the outer garment is not too constricting. The stretch fabric should allow for significant mobility.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of lubricant like graphite (from a pencil) or beeswax to the teeth.
