FAQs
What does Isolite 15000 mean?
Isolite 15000 refers to Regatta's technology that provides a waterproof and breathable fabric. The '15000' typically indicates a hydrostatic head rating, signifying its level of waterproofness.
How do I clean the jacket?
The jacket can be machine washed at 40°C with a mild liquid detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
This jacket is primarily designed for rain protection. For cold weather, it is recommended to layer appropriate insulating clothing underneath, such as a fleece or thermal base layer.
What is the main advantage of the packaway feature?
The packaway feature allows the jacket to be folded into its own pocket, creating a compact belt bag. This makes it extremely convenient to carry and stow when not needed, especially for unpredictable weather.
Are the seams truly waterproof?
Yes, the jacket features taped seams, meaning they are sealed with a waterproof tape to prevent water from penetrating through the stitching holes.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from Polyester, which contributes to its lightweight and durable properties.
Is the hood adjustable?
Yes, the jacket comes with a pull-on hood that provides additional protection when needed.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
Ensure the jacket is clean and dry. Apply a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions. Check that taped seams are intact.
Jacket feels clammy or not breathable
Make sure the jacket is not overly dirty, as dirt can impede breathability. Ensure any vents or openings are not obstructed. Consider if you are layering too heavily for the conditions.
Packaway pocket is difficult to use
Ensure the jacket is completely dry before attempting to pack it. Fold the jacket neatly and systematically into the pocket. Refer to any internal care labels for specific folding instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and a little soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Lubricate with a wax-based product if necessary.
