Regatta Women's Waterproof Birchdale II Jacket - Powder Lilac

Isotex 15000 is a breathable, waterproof, and windproof fabric technology that uses a special coating or membrane to protect you from the elements while allowing perspiration vapor to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable.

Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading on the fabric surface during use. This can vary based on how frequently and in what conditions the jacket is used, but typically after several washes or extensive wear.

The jacket is designed for waterproofing and breathability. For very cold weather, it's recommended to layer insulating clothing underneath, such as fleece or down layers, to provide warmth.

Taped seams are strips of waterproof tape applied over the stitches on the inside of the jacket. They prevent water from leaking through the tiny holes created by the sewing needles, ensuring the jacket remains fully waterproof.

While the jacket is breathable and designed for movement, its primary purpose is for activities like walking and trekking. For very high-intensity sports where extreme perspiration is expected, a more specialized technical garment might be considered.

The Regatta Birchdale II Waterproof Jacket is available in a range of adult women's sizes. Please refer to the product listing or sizing chart for specific available sizes.

Ensure all seams are properly sealed and the DWR coating is active. If not, reapply a DWR treatment and tumble dry to reactivate.

This can indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the pores. Follow the recommended washing instructions and reactivate the DWR.

Gently clean the zipper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a wax stick to the zipper teeth.

Check the cord locks and toggles for damage. Ensure they are clean and functioning correctly. If damaged, contact customer support for replacement parts.
