FAQs

What does 'Hydrafort 5000' mean?

Hydrafort 5000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and windproof fabric technology, indicating a hydrostatic head rating of 5000mm, which is suitable for moderate rain.

Is this jacket insulated?

The jacket has a polyester mesh lining for comfort but is not heavily insulated. It is designed to be windproof and waterproof, making it suitable for layering in colder weather.

How do I find the right size?

Refer to the chest measurement guide provided in the product description (e.g., L fits chest sizes 41-42 inches). It's recommended to measure your chest circumference for the best fit.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colors, using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

What is the advantage of taped seams?

Taped seams ensure that the small holes created by stitching are sealed, preventing water from leaking through and maintaining the jacket's waterproof integrity.

Can I put the jacket in the dryer?

Yes, the jacket can be tumble dried on a low heat setting. Alternatively, it can be air-dried by hanging it up.

Does it have a zip-in compatible system for other layers?

This specific model description does not mention a zip-in compatibility system for other layers. It is designed as a standalone waterproof and windproof outer shell.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure all seams are intact. Consider re-applying a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment after cleaning, following product instructions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a specialized zipper lubricant) to the teeth.

Hood adjuster is loose

Check the cord and stopper mechanism. If the stopper is not holding the cord, it may need to be replaced or secured more tightly.

Mesh lining feels uncomfortable

Ensure you are wearing appropriate underlayers. The mesh lining is designed for some breathability; if discomfort persists, a smoother base layer may help.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40°C with similar colors.
  2. Detergents: Use a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they can degrade the waterproof coating.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry.
  4. Re-proofing: For best long-term performance, consider re-applying a water-repellent finish periodically, following the product's specific instructions.
