FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
Yes, with `Isotex 10000` waterproof fabric and taped seams, the Regatta Romine II jacket offers robust protection against heavy rain.
How warm is the `Thermoguard` insulation?
The `Thermoguard` insulation provides `lightweight` warmth, making it ideal for cool to cold conditions. For very cold or extreme weather, we recommend layering it with additional warm garments underneath.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash this jacket. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific instructions. Generally, use a cold or warm delicate cycle with a technical wash and avoid fabric softeners or bleach.
What does 'breathable' mean for this jacket?
Breathability means the `Isotex 10000` fabric allows moisture vapor (perspiration) from inside the jacket to escape to the outside, helping you stay dry and comfortable during physical activity.
Where is the internal security pocket located?
The internal security pocket is located on the inside of the jacket, typically on the left or right chest area, providing a secure spot for valuables.
What is `Isotex 10000`?
`Isotex 10000` is a Regatta proprietary fabric technology that ensures the jacket is highly waterproof and breathable, with a hydrostatic head rating of 10,000mm and a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24hrs. This protects you from rain while allowing body moisture to escape.
Does the jacket have a removable hood?
The Regatta Romine II jacket features an `integrated hood`, meaning it is permanently attached and not designed to be removed.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside, even without rain.
This could be due to perspiration build-up if you are very active, exceeding the fabric's breathability. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt can block pores and reduce breathability. Also, check if the DWR finish needs reapplication, as a saturated outer fabric can reduce breathability.
Water no longer beads off the jacket's surface.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating has likely worn off. Reapply a specialized DWR treatment (spray-on or wash-in) following the product instructions to restore water repellency.
Zippers feel stiff or snag.
Gently clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth using a small brush. If stiffness persists, apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant designed for outdoor gear to the teeth.
Jacket seems less warm than expected.
The `Thermoguard` insulation is lightweight for manageable warmth. For colder conditions, ensure you are wearing appropriate base and mid-layers underneath. Evaluate if the jacket's warmth level matches the ambient temperature and your activity level.

Care Instructions
Proper care is crucial to maintain the performance and longevity of your waterproof and breathable jacket:
- Read the Label: Always consult the specific care label inside your jacket for detailed washing instructions.
- Washing: Generally, machine wash your jacket on a cold or warm delicate cycle with a small amount of technical wash designed for waterproof breathable fabrics. Avoid using conventional detergents, fabric softeners, or bleach, as these can impair the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.
- Rinsing: Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed to remove all detergent residues.
- Drying: It is best to air dry the jacket away from direct heat. If using a tumble dryer, select a low heat setting. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
- Durable Water Repellent (DWR) Reapplication: Over time, the outer `DWR` finish that causes water to bead up may wear off. If water starts to soak into the outer fabric, reapply a suitable spray-on or wash-in `DWR` treatment specifically designed for waterproof breathable outerwear.
- Storage: Store your jacket in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area when not in use. Ensure it is fully dry before long-term storage to prevent mildew.
