FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, the Regatta Romine II jacket features Isotex 10000 coated polyester fabric with taped seams, making it highly waterproof and capable of protecting you in heavy rain.
What kind of insulation does the jacket have?
The jacket uses lightweight Thermoguard insulation, which provides effective warmth without adding significant bulk, ensuring comfort and freedom of movement.
How do I maintain the jacket's waterproof quality?
To maintain waterproofing, always follow the care label instructions for washing. Avoid fabric softeners. If the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish wears off over time, you can re-apply it using a suitable re-proofing product.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold winter conditions?
The jacket provides manageable warmth with its lightweight Thermoguard insulation. For very cold winter conditions, especially sub-zero temperatures, it is recommended to layer effectively with warm base and mid-layers underneath for optimal warmth.
Does this jacket have pockets?
Yes, the jacket includes a practical internal security pocket, perfect for keeping small valuables safe and dry during your activities.
What does 'Isotex 10000' mean?
Isotex 10000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. '10000mm' indicates the hydrostatic head rating (how waterproof it is), and '10000g/m2/24hr' indicates its breathability (how much moisture vapor can pass through in a day).
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is crafted from 100% Polyester, featuring a waterproof and breathable Isotex 10000 coating and a stylish marl print with a wool-effect finish.
Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem waterproof anymore, water is soaking in.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating might need refreshing. Wash the jacket following care instructions and then apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment. Also, check for any tears or damage to the fabric or seams that could compromise waterproofing.
Jacket feels too hot or clammy inside.
While the jacket is breathable, ensure your layers underneath are also breathable and appropriate for the activity level. Adjust your layers to prevent excessive sweating. Open the main zipper slightly if possible to increase ventilation.
Zippers are sticking or difficult to move.
Clean the zipper teeth with a small brush to remove any dirt or debris. If still sticky, apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.
The jacket looks dull or has stains.
Follow the care instructions for washing. For stubborn stains, pre-treat with a mild stain remover designed for outdoor fabrics, testing on an inconspicuous area first. Ensure thorough rinsing.
Insulation feels clumpy or uneven after washing.
This can sometimes happen with synthetic insulation. After washing, tumble dry on a low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to fluff and redistribute the insulation evenly.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the waterproof and breathable properties of your Regatta Romine II jacket. Always refer to the care label inside your jacket for specific washing and drying instructions. Generally, for polyester outerwear with coatings and insulation:
- Preparation: Before washing, close all zippers and fastenings. Loosen any drawcords.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle using a technical outerwear cleaner, or a small amount of mild, liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and harsh detergents, as these can degrade the fabric's waterproof coating and breathability.
- Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent residue.
- Drying: Drip dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting if recommended on the care label. Avoid high heat, which can damage the waterproof coating and insulation. Air drying is often the safest method, keeping the jacket away from direct sunlight.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the durable water repellent (DWR) finish may wear off. You can restore this by using a spray-on or wash-in DWR re-proofing product, following the product's instructions.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place, ideally hanging to maintain its shape.
