Regatta Seistan

£75.00

LFTO rating
Owners' rating

More waterproof than soft shell and as a waterproof it performs quite well, with a three-layer membrane fabric, taped seams and a very good, adjustable hood. As a soft shell, though, it fails to provide any real insulation, and is nothing like as breathable as some. It’s very adjustable with Velcro cuffs and a drawcord hem, and the hood is more adjustable than some waterproofs on the market; and it has large pockets that will take a map. The sizing is very large so check before buying.

Sizes: S-XXL
Fabric: Softshell XPT Waterproof
Weight: 450g
Women’s version: Yes, Cayley

i bought the XL 44 chest size as i am a 44 chest and i agree with LFTO that the sizeing is big but my seistan weighs only 470grams which is great i like the light weight and the feel .i will be combining it with a rab generator smock so the jacket is better big i think that is a great combination the seistan cost me £40 from marshall leasure.co.uk. which again is a great price i would say it is a 3season jacket but that was what i was after
