Regatta Lever Hooded Waterproof Jacket - Green

Isolite 15000 refers to the fabric technology used. '15000' indicates a waterproof and breathability rating. It means the fabric can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure before leaking and allows 15,000g/m²/24 hours of water vapor to pass through, signifying good protection from rain and comfort during activity.

No, the Regatta Lever jacket is a shell jacket designed for waterproofing and wind resistance. It does not contain insulation, making it ideal for layering over warmer clothing in colder conditions or for use on its own in milder, wet weather.

Machine wash at 40°C on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang to dry. To restore water repellency, iron on a cool setting after washing and drying.

The printed name label is included on sizes up to age 8. For larger sizes, you may wish to add your own label or marker.

While the jacket provides excellent protection against wind and rain, it is not insulated. For very cold weather, it should be worn as an outer layer over insulating mid-layers such as fleece or down jackets to provide warmth.

The jacket can be folded and stuffed into its own lower left pocket. This pocket is designed to convert into a small pouch or belt bag, making the jacket very compact and easy to carry when not needed.

The reflective trims are designed to be durable for regular wear and washing according to the care instructions. However, like all trims, excessive abrasion or improper care could affect their longevity.

The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may need refreshing. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and then either iron on a cool setting or apply a specific re-proofer spray or wash, following the product's instructions. Ensure seams are intact.

While the jacket is breathable, high levels of exertion can sometimes lead to moisture build-up. Ensure the main zippers are open for ventilation. Check that the fabric is not excessively dirty, as this can impede breathability. For lighter weight, consider wearing fewer base layers.

Gently try to pull the zipper. If it's stuck on fabric, carefully ease the fabric away. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant can help it glide more smoothly. Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear.

Ensure the jacket is as flat and smooth as possible before attempting to fold it into the designated pocket. Remove any bulky items from the pockets. Practice folding it a few times to get the knack.
