Product Information

Full details

This guide is for adult women seeking a lightweight, waterproof jacket for travel, festivals, or everyday unpredictable weather. Its key benefit is offering reliable rain protection that packs down small. A potential caveat is its lightweight construction, which may be less suitable for extreme cold. The Regatta Brindel Hooded Pack-It Jacket is constructed from ISOLITE 15000 fabric, providing waterproof and breathable protection. It features taped seams, a grown-on hood, and packs away into its own pocket for ultimate portability. The jacket includes a polyester mesh lining, two lower patch pockets, elasticated cuffs, and a curved hem with an elasticated waist detail.

FAQs

What does ISOLITE 15000 mean?

ISOLITE 15000 refers to Regatta's technology offering a waterproof rating of 15,000mm and a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours. This indicates good protection against rain and allows moisture vapor to escape.

How do I clean the jacket?

You can machine wash the jacket at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not iron or dry clean.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

The Brindel jacket is designed for lightweight rain protection. It is not heavily insulated and therefore may not provide sufficient warmth for very cold winter conditions on its own. It is best worn over insulating layers.

What is the benefit of the packable design?

The jacket packs into its own pocket, making it incredibly convenient to carry in a backpack, handbag, or even a large pocket. It's ideal for travel, hiking, or any situation where you need rain protection readily available but space is limited.

Can I wear this jacket over a thick sweater?

While it can be worn over lighter layers, it is designed to be a lightweight shell. Wearing it over very thick sweaters might restrict movement. It is best suited for base layers or light to medium fleeces.

What is the difference between the Floral and Multicolor options?

The 'Floral' pattern refers to a specific print design. 'Multicolor' indicates a broader range of colors used within the pattern or the jacket itself. Both variants utilize the same ISOLITE 15000 fabric and features.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not fully waterproof

Ensure all seams are intact and the durable water repellent (DWR) finish is still effective. Reapply DWR treatment if necessary following product instructions. Check that the hood drawcords are tightened.

Jacket feels clammy inside

This can sometimes occur in very humid conditions or during intense physical activity. Ensure you are wearing breathable layers underneath. The ISOLITE 15000 fabric is breathable, but extreme conditions can test its limits.

Jacket is difficult to pack into its pocket

Ensure the jacket is as dry as possible and any excess air is pressed out before folding. Fold it neatly starting from the hem or hood, then stuff it into the designated pocket.

Zipper snagging

Gently try to move the fabric away from the zipper teeth. If it persists, use a graphite pencil or a small amount of wax to lubricate the zipper teeth.
