Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Brindel Pack-It Jacket is designed for adult women seeking reliable rain protection during travel, festivals, or everyday use. Its key benefit is its lightweight, waterproof, and breathable ISOLITE 15000 fabric, which also packs away into its own pocket for ultimate portability. A potential caveat is that while waterproof, it is designed for moderate showers and extended heavy downpours might require a more robust option. Key features include taped seams, a grown-on hood with drawcords, two lower patch pockets, and elasticated cuffs.

FAQs

What does ISOLITE 15000 mean?

ISOLITE 15000 refers to Regatta's lightweight, waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '15000' typically indicates the hydrostatic head rating, signifying its level of waterproofness (15,000mm).

How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof?

Regular washing according to care instructions and occasional re-application of a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment will help maintain its waterproof properties. Ensure you check for any fabric damage or compromised seam seals.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This jacket is designed primarily for rain protection and is lightweight. For cold weather, layering with warm mid-layers underneath is recommended.

What is the length of the jacket?

The Brindel jacket is described as a 'Longline Jacket', suggesting it falls below the hip, offering more coverage than a standard jacket.

Are the pockets secure?

The jacket features two lower patch pockets. These are open pockets and are best suited for items you need quick access to, rather than secure storage for valuables.

How should I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, tumble drying on high heat, and ironing. Ensure zippers are closed before washing.

What sizes are available?

The jacket is available in women's sizes ranging from 8 to 18.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

Ensure the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is intact. Re-apply a DWR treatment if necessary. Check that all seams are properly sealed and that the fabric itself is not damaged.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and allow to dry. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Hood drawcords are tangled.

Carefully untangle the drawcords. If they are difficult to re-thread, a safety pin can be used to guide them.

Jacket does not pack into its pocket easily.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry before attempting to pack it. Fold it neatly and systematically to fit into the designated pocket.
