Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Brindel Pack-It Jacket in Green is designed for adult women seeking lightweight, waterproof protection without bulk. Its key benefit is reliable dryness in downpours thanks to ISOLITE 15000 fabric and taped seams, while a major advantage is its packability into its own pocket for easy transport. A minor consideration is that while waterproof, it is not insulated for extreme cold. This jacket is ideal for unpredictable weather, travel, festivals, and daily commutes.

FAQs

Is this jacket insulated?

No, the Regatta Brindel Pack-It Jacket is not insulated. It is designed as a lightweight, waterproof shell to protect against rain and wind, intended to be worn over other layers for warmth.

How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?

Turn the jacket inside out and fold it into the designated lower pocket. There is usually a specific way to fold it to fit compactly. Refer to any labels inside the pocket for guidance.

What does ISOLITE 15000 mean?

ISOLITE 15000 refers to Regatta's technology for waterproof and breathable fabrics. The '15000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 15,000mm, meaning it can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure before leaking, and a breathability rating of 15,000g/m²/24 hours.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle at 40°C using a mild detergent. Ensure all fastenings are closed before washing.

How should I care for the waterproof coating?

To maintain the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, it is recommended to tumble dry on a low heat or iron on a cool setting after washing. Reapplying a DWR treatment can also refresh the performance.

What is the difference between waterproof and water-resistant?

Waterproof items, like this jacket with its taped seams and high hydrostatic head rating, are designed to prevent water from penetrating completely. Water-resistant items offer a degree of protection but may eventually let water through under sustained or heavy exposure.

What sizes are available?

This jacket is available in various adult women's sizes. The specific size for this green variant is listed as size 20.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Try re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor fabrics. Follow product instructions carefully. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax (like a candle or lip balm) to the zipper teeth. Avoid using oily lubricants that can stain.

Jacket feels clammy inside after wearing.

This may indicate that the breathability is being overwhelmed by high exertion levels or very humid conditions. Ensure all ventilation points (like the hood drawcords) are appropriately adjusted. Wash the jacket as per care instructions, as body oils and dirt can impede breathability over time.
