Product Overview
The Regatta Professional Venturer 3-layer hooded softshell jacket (RG152) is a sophisticated piece of technical outerwear designed to withstand the rigours of the British elements. Engineered with a focus on triple protection, this jacket is waterproof, breathable, and wind-resistant. It represents a significant step up from standard fleeces, offering a professional silhouette combined with heavy-duty performance for those who spend their working day exposed to the weather.
Key Features
- Warm-backed woven Softshell XPT: This 3-layer membrane fabric provides essential thermal insulation while allowing moisture to escape, keeping you dry from both the inside and outside.
- Wind-resistant inner membrane: Specifically designed to block out gusts, ensuring that body heat is retained even in exposed working environments.
- Atl durable water-repellent finish: This coating encourages water to bead and roll off the surface, preventing the fabric from becoming waterlogged.
- Detachable softshell fabric hood: Features an adjustable shock cord at the face, allowing for a secure fit that doesn't compromise visibility during rain.
- Secure Storage: Equipped with two zipped lower pockets and one zipped chest pocket, providing safe spaces for vital tools and personal devices.
Design & Performance
The Venturer is constructed from a substantial 100% polyester fabric that feels sturdy without being restrictive. The 3-layer membrane technology is the core of its performance; the outer layer provides a clean, professional look, the middle membrane handles the waterproofing and breathability, and the warm-backed inner layer offers comfort against the skin. Adjustable cuffs allow for a tight seal against the wind, making this a reliable choice for winter wear. The inclusion of a tear-out tag is a thoughtful touch for those who prefer an irritation-free experience during long shifts.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This jacket is particularly well-suited for branding, featuring a fully printable outer fabric that ensures large, bold logos appear crisp and vibrant. For companies seeking a more traditional and high-end finish, embroidery is the ideal choice for chest or sleeve logos. The dense weave of the softshell material provides an excellent foundation for needlework, ensuring your branding remains sharp and doesn't pull the fabric.
All customisation is handled at our Telford facility by a team that has been perfecting these techniques since 1976. Whether you require print for high visibility or embroidery for a professional corporate identity, we ensure the finished product reflects the quality of your business.
Use Cases
The Venturer is an excellent choice for site managers, surveyors, and tradespeople who require a jacket that looks as good in a client meeting as it performs on a construction site. Its breathable nature also makes it suitable for more active roles, such as delivery drivers or outdoor event staff, who need protection without overheating.

Practical Advice
The Venturer is available in a broad size range from S to 3XL. Given its substantial weight and warm-backed lining, it functions perfectly as a standalone outer layer in autumn or as a final layer over a technical base in mid-winter. We recommend checking the sizing to fit guide, as the 3-layer membrane provides a structured fit that is best worn with enough room for movement.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance waterproof and breathable properties of the XPT membrane, we recommend a cool machine wash using Regatta Isotex cleaner or a pure soap. Conventional detergents can contain chemicals that break down the water-repellent finish over time.
Do not use bleach on this garment, as it will weaken the polyester fibres and cause significant damage to any custom print or embroidery. Similarly, do not tumble dry or iron the jacket; high temperatures can cause the technical membranes to delaminate, essentially ruining the jacket's ability to keep out the rain.
Dry cleaning should be avoided as the solvents used in the process are too aggressive for the synthetic membranes. For the best results, allow the jacket to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
