Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Standout Ardmore Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from wind and rain during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is offering waterproof and windproof features at an accessible price point. A potential caveat is that while it provides protection, it may not offer the highest level of breathability for intense physical exertion. The jacket is constructed from 100% hydrafort polyester with a polyester mesh lining, featuring taped seams for enhanced waterproofing. It includes a concealed hood, multiple zipped pockets for secure storage, and adjustable elements for a personalized fit.

FAQs

What is Hydrafort polyester?

Hydrafort is Regatta's own branded waterproof and windproof fabric technology, designed to keep you dry and protected from the elements.

How do I find the right size?

Regatta provides specific sizing charts. For this jacket, the XXL size corresponds to a chest measurement of approximately 46-48 inches (117-122 cm). Refer to the product page or Regatta's official sizing guide for exact measurements.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

The jacket provides windproof protection and can be layered. For very cold weather, you will need to wear warm insulation layers underneath, such as a fleece or insulated jacket. The jacket itself is not insulated.

Is the hood detachable?

No, the hood is concealed and integrated into the jacket's design, but it can be adjusted with drawcords and stowed away when not in use.

How do I clean the jacket if it gets muddy?

You can machine wash it at 40°C with a mild liquid detergent. For stubborn mud, pre-treat the area gently before washing. Ensure it is fully dried afterwards, preferably by hanging or on a low tumble dry setting.

What is the benefit of the internal zipped embroidery access?

This feature allows for easy customization of the jacket with logos or names through embroidery without compromising the jacket's waterproof and windproof performance, as the access is internal.

Will this jacket keep me dry in a downpour?

The jacket features Hydrafort fabric and taped seams, offering good waterproof protection for moderate rain. For prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, additional waterproofing measures or a more specialized jacket might be necessary.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not fully waterproof anymore

The water repellent finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket using a specialist wash and then apply a DWR re-proofer according to the product's instructions. Ensure all seams are intact.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the zipper teeth. Avoid using wax which can attract dirt.

Hood adjustment not effective

Ensure the drawcords are fully threaded and the toggles are functioning correctly. Check for any debris obstructing the drawcord channel.

Pockets feel damp inside

Ensure zippers are fully closed during use. If the jacket has been exposed to heavy rain, some moisture may seep through the zipper if left open. Allow the jacket to dry completely between wears.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides effective waterproof and windproof protection.
  • Durable construction suitable for everyday outdoor use.
  • Features practical elements like a concealed hood and multiple pockets.
  • Adjustable cuffs and hem allow for a customized and secure fit.
  • Internal access for embroidery makes it ideal for branding or personalization.

Cons

  • May lack high-level breathability during strenuous activities.
  • The fit might be slightly larger than standard sizing, consider checking the size chart.
  • Primarily designed for weather protection rather than extreme athletic performance.
  • The grey color may show dirt more easily than darker alternatives.
  • While waterproof, it may not be suitable for prolonged submersion in heavy downpours.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The Regatta Standout Ardmore Jacket requires no setup. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before exposure to the elements.

Compatibility: This jacket is designed for general adult male wear. It is compatible with various layering options underneath, such as t-shirts, fleeces, or sweaters, depending on the weather. The internal pocket is designed to hold most standard smartphones, and the earphone access allows for wired headphones.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine washable at 40°C. Use a mild liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, iron on a very low setting on the reverse side only.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the taped seams and zippers for wear and tear. Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish if water no longer beads on the surface, following product instructions.
