FAQs
What does 'Isolite 15000' mean?
Isolite 15000 refers to Regatta's technology that provides a waterproof and breathable rating of 15000mm hydrostatic head, meaning it can withstand water pressure equivalent to 15,000mm before leaking.
Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?
This is primarily a waterproof shell jacket. While it blocks wind and rain, it offers minimal insulation. For cold weather, layer it over warm mid-layers like fleece or down jackets.
How do I pack the jacket?
The jacket is designed to be easily packable. Typically, you can fold it down and stuff it into its own hood or a dedicated small pocket, making it compact for storage.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, with an Isolite 15000 rating, it's designed for good protection against moderate to heavy rain during typical outdoor activities.
What material is the jacket made of?
The jacket is made from Nylon, providing durability and water resistance.
How should I clean the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor fabrics.
Zipper is stiff or sticking
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper track.
Jacket feels damp inside despite no rain
This could be due to insufficient breathability. Ensure inner layers are not overly thick or non-breathable. Check if the jacket needs cleaning to restore breathability.
