RG195 Women's Octagon II 3-Layer Membrane Softshell Jacket

The Regatta Professional RG195 Women's Octagon II Printable 3-Layer Membrane Softshell is a premium-performance softshell jacket designed specifically for women who want a smart, professional fit combined with advanced weather protection and all-day comfort.

Built using Regatta's Softshell XPT three-layer membrane technology, the Octagon II combines a warm-backed woven softshell outer with a waterproof and breathable membrane. With a 10,000g/m²/24-hour breathability rating, the jacket is designed to allow moisture vapour to escape while helping protect the wearer from changing outdoor conditions.

At 300gsm, the RG195 has a substantial, quality feel while retaining the flexibility of a softshell garment. Its 4-way stretch construction provides freedom of movement, making it particularly useful for women who move between office, vehicle and outdoor environments during the working day.

The shaped women's fit is one of the defining features of the RG195. It provides a more flattering silhouette than a standard men's or unisex softshell while retaining the practical features required for professional workwear.

The jacket features two lower zipped pockets and one zipped chest pocket, providing secure storage for everyday essentials. An adjustable shock cord hem allows the wearer to fine-tune the fit, while the inner zip guard provides additional comfort around the front fastening. 

The RG195 is also specifically designed for professional branding. Regatta identifies it as suitable for embroidery, screen printing, DTF printing and vinyl decoration.

Available in Black, Navy, Classic Red, Oxford Blue and Seal Grey, with women's sizes from 8 to 22, the RG195 is particularly well suited to corporate uniforms, sales teams, hospitality, retail, facilities management, construction, trades and outdoor service businesses. Sizes 8 and 22 are restricted to Black and Navy.

Why Choose the RG195?

Shaped Women's Fit

The RG195 has been specifically designed with a shaped women's fit, providing a more flattering and professional silhouette than simply adapting a men's jacket to smaller sizes.

This makes it particularly useful for businesses wanting properly coordinated men's and women's workwear.

3-Layer Softshell XPT Construction

The Octagon II uses Softshell XPT three-layer membrane technology, giving it a more technically advanced construction than a conventional two-layer softshell.

The three-layer construction combines the outer fabric, membrane and backing into a flexible technical outer layer.

10,000g/m²/24h Breathability

The RG195 has a 10,000g/m²/24-hour breathability rating.

This is one of the strongest reasons to consider the Octagon II over a more basic softshell, particularly for employees who are active outdoors or moving between different environments.

Advanced Weather Protection

The Softshell XPT membrane provides waterproof and breathable membrane technology, together with wind-resistant protection. The outer fabric also has a durable water-repellent finish. 

A water-repellent softshell featuring waterproof and breathable XPT membrane technology.

300gsm Construction

At 300gsm, the RG195 has a substantial feel and provides more substance than the 270gsm RG151 Uproar.

This gives customers a clear reason to step up to the Octagon II when they want a more substantial and technically capable softshell.

4-Way Stretch

The Octagon II features 4-way stretch fabric, providing greater freedom of movement and comfort.

This is particularly useful for employees who are driving, walking, reaching, bending or working outdoors.

Warm-Backed Construction

The woven softshell has a warm-backed construction, providing additional comfort and warmth without the bulk associated with heavily padded jackets.

Three Zipped Pockets

The RG195 has:

• Two lower zipped pockets
• One zipped chest pocket

This provides secure storage for phones, keys and other everyday essentials.

Adjustable Shock cord Hem

The adjustable shock cord hem allows the wearer to fine-tune the fit around the bottom of the jacket and helps reduce unwanted drafts.

Inner Zip Guard

An inner zip guard provides additional comfort around the front fastening.

Printable Softshell

The RG195 is designed with professional branding in mind and can be decorated using:

• Embroidery
• Screen printing
• DTF printing
• Vinyl

ColorCoded Workwear recommends embroidery as the first choice branding option, particularly for corporate and professional uniforms.

Recycled Polyester Content

Regatta identifies the Octagon II as being made using at least 50% recycled polyester in the main fabric.

That gives businesses another useful consideration when selecting workwear as part of a more sustainability-conscious uniform programme.
