Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Waterproof Pack-It III Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable, lightweight rain protection that is easy to carry. Its key benefit is its waterproof and packable nature, making it an ideal 'just-in-case' item. A potential caveat is its focus on basic weather protection, rather than heavy-duty insulation. This jacket utilizes advanced Isolite 10000 fabric and taped seams for waterproofness, and conveniently packs into its own stuff sack for portability.

FAQs

What does 'Isolite 10000' mean?

Isolite 10000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '10000' indicates its hydrostatic head rating, meaning it can withstand a water column of 10,000mm before leaking, signifying good waterproofing.

How do I pack the jacket into its stuff sack?

Ensure the jacket is completely dry. Start by folding it roughly, then roll it tightly from the bottom hem upwards. Once rolled, insert it into the integrated stuff sack and close it.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Pack-It III Jacket is designed primarily for waterproofing and is lightweight. It does not offer significant insulation. For cold weather, it is best used as an outer shell layered over insulating clothing.

How often should I re-proof the jacket?

Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water no longer beads up on the fabric surface, typically after numerous washes or extensive use. Follow the instructions on your chosen re-proofing product.

Can I wear this jacket for activities like running?

Yes, the lightweight and breathable nature of the jacket makes it suitable for moderate-intensity activities like running, especially in wet conditions. Ensure proper ventilation if you overheat.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Product warranty information is typically found on the retailer's or manufacturer's website. Please refer to Regatta's official customer service for details regarding warranty periods and terms.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer beading water effectively.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Consider re-proofing the jacket using a specialized fabric re-proofer, following the product instructions.

Water is seeping through seams.

Ensure all seams are intact. If damage is present, professional repair may be necessary. Check that the taped seams have not peeled away.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove dirt or salt. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.

Jacket feels clammy inside.

This can occur in high humidity or during strenuous activity. While the fabric is breathable, significant perspiration may exceed its capacity. Ensure the jacket is not too tight and consider opening the front zipper slightly for ventilation if possible.
