Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Standout Ardmore Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection against wind and light rain during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is offering waterproof and windproof features with taped seams for enhanced durability. A potential caveat is that it's primarily a shell jacket, so layering may be necessary for significant warmth. Key features include a concealed adjustable hood, multiple pockets for storage, and adjustable cuffs and hem for a personalized fit.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Ardmore Jacket is a shell jacket designed primarily for waterproofing and windproofing. For very cold weather, layering with warm base and mid-layers is recommended.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the Regatta Men's sizing chart provided in the product description. Measurements are based on chest circumference in inches and centimeters.

Can I wash this jacket in a washing machine?

Yes, the jacket can be machine washed at 40°C (130°F) on a gentle cycle using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid powder detergents and bleach.

What does 'Hydrafort' mean?

Hydrafort is Regatta's own waterproof and windproof fabric technology, designed to protect you from the elements while remaining comfortable.

How should I care for the waterproof coating?

To maintain the water repellency, avoid fabric softeners and wash with mild detergent. Re-activate the DWR finish by tumble drying on low heat after washing.

Does the jacket have a breathable membrane?

While designed to keep water out, the primary focus of Hydrafort is protection. For highly aerobic activities, breathability might be limited compared to specialized technical shells.

Is the hood removable?

No, the hood is concealed within the collar and is not designed to be removed.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer water-repellent

Re-activate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish by tumble drying the jacket on a low heat for 20 minutes. If performance has significantly degraded, consider applying a specialized DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move

Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite from a pencil to the zipper teeth to improve glide.

Hood adjustment is loose

Ensure the drawcord adjuster on the hood is properly tightened. If the cord itself is frayed or damaged, it may need replacement.

Seams are leaking water

Check if the taped seams are intact. If the tape is peeling or damaged, the waterproofing is compromised in that area. Contact customer support if the jacket is still under warranty.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and windproof protection.
  • Durable construction with taped seams.
  • Adjustable hood, cuffs, and hem for a personalized fit.
  • Convenient pocket configuration, including internal earphone access.
  • Lightweight shell design suitable for layering.

Cons

  • May require layering for significant warmth in cold conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure all zippers are fully closed and adjust the hood, cuffs, and hem for optimal fit before use.

Compatibility: The jacket is designed as outerwear and is compatible with various base and mid-layers for added warmth. It functions independently as a waterproof and windproof shell.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40°C (130°F) on a gentle cycle with Regatta's recommended wash or a mild liquid detergent. Do not use powder detergents or biological agents.
  2. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron. For DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment re-activation, a gentle tumble dry is recommended after washing.
  5. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
