Regatta Mens Standout Ardmore Jacket (Waterproof & Windproof) - Grey - S

Hydrafort 5000 refers to Regatta's own waterproofing technology, indicating a hydrostatic head rating of 5000mm, meaning it can withstand 5000mm of water pressure before leaking. It also signifies a level of breathability.

The jacket provides windproofing and waterproofing but is not heavily insulated. It is best worn as an outer shell over warm layers in cold conditions.

While it offers wind and rain protection, its primary design is for general outdoor use and work. For intense running, a more specialized breathable running jacket might be preferable to prevent overheating.

Yes, the jacket features internal zipped embroidery access, making it convenient for customization with logos or emblems without compromising the outer waterproof layer.

This is a hardshell jacket focused on maximum waterproof and windproof protection. Softshell jackets typically offer more stretch, breathability, and water resistance, but less comprehensive waterproofing than this hardshell.

Ensure all seams are properly taped and intact. Check that zippers are fully closed. Re-waterproof the jacket using a suitable fabric treatment if the coating appears worn.

Tighten the adjuster cord on the concealed hood for a more secure fit.

Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and a small brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a pencil graphite to the teeth for smoother operation.

While the jacket is windproof and waterproof, some breathability may be limited in very humid conditions. Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. Check that ventilation (if any) is utilized, and consider if the garment is suitable for the activity's intensity.
