Regatta Cordite 3-in-1

£170.00

Two jackets for the price of one with this – a shell jacket outer and a removable insulated liner. The removable liner makes it a good bet for casual walks on colder days, when you don’t want to be weighed down by a lot of kit. In use the jacket is fine for general walking use, albeit pretty warm when ...

Regatta Magnitude III

£40.00

An inexpensive jacket, the Magnitude III is as classic an example of a cagoule as you’re likely to see. In use, perhaps not surprisingly, it’s not the most technical, although it is one of the few to come with a mesh-lined inner to help the outer fabric absorb condensed moisture. The face fabric is not that effective when it comes ...

Regatta Chandler II

£30.00

While waterproof trousers are notorious for a nuisance rustling noise as you walk, the Chandler II proved remarkably quiet. The softer face-fabric does mean that they are one of the easiest to snag on branches, but the pay-off is that it won’t sound like you’re wearing bin bags wrapped around your legs. They certainly aren’t easy to pull on over ...

Regatta Descend II

£100.00

A low-priced jacket that uses PU waterproofing, the Descend II handles general wet weather well enough, although it wasn’t tested in any monsoon conditions. It did tend to get fairly warm and a little sweaty after strenuous activity. There are stretch panels, although they don’t seem to be in the right places – across the shoulder as opposed to under ...

£60.00

The Regatta Mania multi-activity jacket uses Isolite 5000 fabric, which is waterproof and breathable; mesh lining improves comfort; hood rolls into collar; small chest pocket; two hip pockets; reflective printing; pit zips. But 508g (size L) is heavy; lower pocket access is easily obscured with rucksack belts; hood movement and sleeve movement are not as good as in higher-priced options.

Regatta Topspeed/Valentine 2010

£40.00

The Regatta Topspeed/Valentine is a well-established and popular classic jacket. It’s made of Regatta’s own fabric, Isotex 5000, which feels nice and robust. There is a front zip and this has an external stormflap to keep the rain out. There are two zipped hip pockets too. The sleeves get Velcro cuffs so the fit can be adjusted. Unusually for a ...

The Regatta Descend II/Adrianna general-purpose jacket uses Isotex 10,000 fabric, which provides very waterproof and very breathable performance; mesh lining improves comfort; pit zips; main zip gets external stormflap; two chest pockets remain accessible with rucksack on; removable rollaway hood. But 708g (size L) is heavy; hood movement is very poor; no wired pea

Regatta Leonie II

£55.00

A nice-fitting jacket made from Regatta’s waterproof Isolite 5000 fabric. It’s a heavy jacket, but it packs down easily and some will prefer the extra protection offered by the mesh lining. Less breathable than many, but the mesh-lined pockets and underarm zips offer a welcome flow of air and Velcro adjustable cuffs pull up easily to the elbows. Pockets are ...

Regatta Chandler II 2010

£33.00

Performed well in keeping rain and wind out, although not as breathable as some. They have a comfy polyester lining and a useful selection of zip-access pockets, and the waist is adjustable and elasticated so it’s easy to get a good fit. The leg-zips are on the small side, but they do the job, and they come in three leg ...

Regatta Diffuse 2009

£40.00

Made from Isotex, Regatta’s own brand of waterproof and breathable fabric, the Diffuse children’s jacket instantly appears to have a good, small packed size. It is reasonably light too, so grown-ups won’t mind carrying it just in case it rains. The jacket has a similar design to others with a full-length front zip that has an external stormflap to keep ...

Regatta Mantle

£48.00

The Mantle is quite a short jacket, yet it’s heavy and quite bulky too. This is mainly down to a mesh lining, which is comfortable but unnecessary in this type of jacket, and a stuff-sack pocket that comes with an elastic belt attached. It has a good selection of pockets (none that will take a map) but packaway hood is ...

Regatta Oki 2008

£35.00

The Regatta Oki is a simple, functional kids’ jacket made from good material. The front zip gets a single stormflap to keep the worst of the rain out, while hem and cuff adjustment locks out the draughts. The hood is a rollaway design with an elasticated fit and peak. There are just two zipped pockets at the hips. Of particular ...

Regatta Benthos

£75.00

A good fit – roomy enough without being baggy and with decent length sleeves that adjusted easily. The hood could be bigger, but general comfort was good, especially for the price. Quite bulky and heavy, but kept the rain out well. Breathability was okay, aided by venting pockets in the chest. Would have sneaked an extra mark with a stiffer ...

Regatta Graben/Maya

For a low-priced general-purpose waterproof this is packed with great features for the walker who doesn’t wanted the lightest jacket but does want some good comfortable features. The fabric is better than some jackets in its price bracket. You also get a mesh lining to add extra comfort. The style is slightly longer than some, allowing access to base pockets ...

Regatta Marella

£80.00

This waterproof jacket from Regatta is heavy, and quite long in the body, which will suit some more than others, but the arms are just a bit too long. The Isotex fabric is a little stiff to walk in comfortably and the collar, although nice and high, is also too stiff to feel really comfy. In its favour, the hood ...

Regatta Rampart

£40.00

These waterproof trousers from Regatta are a good fit, thanks to a part-elasticated waist with drawcord, press stud and belt loops. One of the heavier styles, but the tough polyamide fabric keeps the rain out and breathes well. Full-length two-way zips are great for taking on and off, venting and accessing trousers underneath, but practice is needed for optimum use. ...
