Regatta Waterproof Jacket - Navy - Size XL

Hydrafort 5000 indicates the fabric's performance level, meaning it is waterproof to 5000mm and breathable to 5000g/m²/24hrs, suitable for everyday rain and wind protection.

Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the Regatta Professional Mens sizing chart provided. For example, an XL is approximately a 44-inch chest.

This jacket provides windproofing and basic rain protection. For very cold weather, layering with insulating mid-layers like fleece or down is recommended.

No, the hood is integral, meaning it is permanently attached to the jacket.

Re-proofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface and is soaking into the fabric, typically after extended use or numerous washes.

The 'Pro' designation often suggests enhanced durability or features for professional use. This model, while robust, is part of the professional range and offers solid, reliable protection.

The water repellency may have diminished over time. Consider re-proofing the jacket using a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for waterproof clothing. Follow the product instructions for application and heat-setting if required.

Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Lubricate the zipper with a silicone-based lubricant, beeswax, or even a pencil lead rubbed along the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.

While the elastic is designed for comfort, it can lose some elasticity over time with heavy use. There is no user-adjustable feature for the cuffs, but ensure they are properly seated to provide the best seal.
