Regatta Baxter (2012)

£30.00

This is a lighter-weight fleece than many out there, using a thinner grade of material that also makes it one of the least expensive too. The downside is a lack of insulation. This really only provides warmth as part of a layering system. It is designed to zip into a corresponding shell jacket. A drawcord around the hem helps to ...

Regatta Geo Extol II TRS

£46.00

These were quite a nice surprise – a pair of trousers with a technical climbing/walking look befitting of more expensive models. The off-coloured knee patches may not be to everybody’s taste, but they do add more movement to the legs, helping with bending and hill-climbs. They could do with being a little more reinforced however, as they do seem to ...

Regatta X-Cert Lightweight 20L

£30.00

It’s certainly stripped back, with no waist strap, and only a flimsy padded back system for strength and comfort. You have to be careful when loading it to keep soft kit towards your back and you can’t overfill it (which is all too easy to do) otherwise it will sit uncomfortably. There are a couple of mesh side pockets, normally ...

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 Ad-Trek 2011

£40.00

A new sandal for this spring, the Regatta Ad-Trek is a very practical design coupled with some modern styling. So you get an upper that is water-resistant to ensure it is fast-drying. The straps are Velcro, making them quick and easy to use, and there are three adjustment points so a reasonable fit should be easily achieved. The straps are ...

Regatta Guideway Mid 2011

£40.00

The Regatta Guideway Mid is a very good low-priced boot with a mid-cut ankle cuff and a waterproof lining that is good for general outdoor use. The upper has plenty of leather to protect the mesh for greater durability. There is decent stiffness in the ankle area and sole too. The lugs are reasonably aggressive for grip in mud. But ...

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 Geo Extol 2011

£45.00

The Regatta Geo Extol mountain trousers weigh 472g (size men’s L); three leg lengths; women’s sizes from 8-20; four-way stretch soft shell fabric; very water-resistant; hard-wearing; zipped ankle opening for big boots; three zipped pockets. But cut is not as profiled as higher-priced options; more clammy than non-soft shell options; pockets are relatively small; others are more stretchy.

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 ...

Regatta X-ERT 35L 2010

£35.00

The best ‘budget buy’, the Regatta X-ERT 35L (1280g) almost achieves great things: it’s light, perfectly comfy up to a certain load and has an adjustable, ventilated back system. But it has some very eccentric features: most notably the large external pocket with a tiny zipped entrance, two tiny-capacity side pockets and a hidden key stash. Stockists – tel. (0161) ...

Regatta Geo Extol Zip-Off 2010

£30.00

At under half the price of some comparable trousers, the Regatta Geo Extol Zip-Off is clearly going to be a favourite in terms of cost. But this is more than a low-priced product, as it also has plenty of practical features that allow it to compete with the best here. The fabric is quick-drying nylon as with higher-priced trousers. The ...

Regatta Ad-Splorer 2010

£25.00

The Regatta Ad-Splorer is an extremely low-priced sandal, which is its main benefit. It is completely made from synthetic materials, which makes it ideal for use in wet conditions as it dries very fast. There are three Velcro straps, which allows good adjustment at the heel, ankle and forefoot. The heel strap can be removed to convert this to a ...

Regatta Geo Extol

£45.00

Flattering and versatile trousers that are a great choice for UK hillwalkers. The slimline, low-rise fit looks great both on and off the hill, and is extremely comfortable too. The fabric feels reassuringly tough, resists water and wind very well, and dries really quickly too. There is a zip-access mesh panel on each thigh – perfect when you want some ...

Regatta Geo Tech 2010

£30.00

Regatta’s Geo Tech trousers are a good option for dedicated walkers, with articulated knees to aid freedom of movement and the option to zip off the legs. I noticed a bit of rubbing from the zip at the leg so it’s worth bearing this in mind when you try them on. There is a double lining around the rear: good ...

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 Base Zip-neck base layer

£16.00

A very thick and warm base-layer that can feel itchy when you’re hot and sweaty. It has a nice close-fitting design, with plenty of stretch in the fabric, although it tends to become saggy with wear. The zip-neck collar provides great ventilation when needed, but check you can zip it up properly as the collar is tighter fitting than some. ...

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 Wetland Junior

£40.00

The Regatta Wetland Junior’s suede and synthetic upper looks fresh and appealing, and this children’s boot gets a waterproof lining. There is some good stiffness around the toe and heel too for increased durability and protection. The outsole lugs are also reasonably aggressive for getting a grip.  But the low-ankle cuff means you need to avoid deep puddles and terrain ...

Regatta Crusoe 2009

The low price of the Regatta Crusoe is instantly appealing. And you get an awful lot of practical features for your cash. The Crusoe has a good three-point adjustment strap system, with Velcro and neoprene padding. The straps are wide at the forefoot, to provide extra protection. Underfoot there is a good, sturdy footbed that is stiff enough to take ...

Regatta Geo V Zip-Off Trouser

£30.00

Odd sizing makes these trousers quite big for the stated waist measurement, and the legs are incredibly baggy, too. The fabric feels good – albeit a bit on the lightweight side for year-round walking. The fact they are convertible makes them better for walking in milder conditions, although they do repel water well and dry quickly. There’s a good selection ...

REGATTA X-ERT PERFORMANCE BASE ZIP-NECK

£16.00

Review: The fabric is soft and has enough stretch to make movement easy. Lovely snug collar, too. As a base-layer it feels soft and warm and copes well with moisture, and it looked good on its own, too. Some odour retention, but not too bad.

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 ...
