Regatta Mens Standout Ardmore Jacket - Sun Orange/Seal Grey - S

Hydrafort 5000 is Regatta's own fabric technology that indicates a specific level of waterproof and windproof performance. '5000' typically refers to the hydrostatic head rating, meaning it can withstand 5000mm of water pressure before leaking.

Refer to the chest (to fit ins) measurements provided in the product details. For this jacket, size S is for a chest size of 37-38 inches. It is recommended to measure your chest circumference and compare it to the chart.

This jacket provides windproof protection, which is crucial in cold weather. However, it is primarily a shell. For very cold conditions, layering appropriate insulating garments (like a fleece or down jacket) underneath is recommended.

The hood is described as 'concealed' with an adjuster, suggesting it is integrated into the collar and likely not removable.

Yes, you can tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting. However, air drying is often preferred to extend the life of the fabric and its waterproof properties.

Taped seams prevent water from seeping through the needle holes created during the stitching process, ensuring the garment remains fully waterproof.

The 'peached' finish gives a soft feel. To maintain it, follow the standard washing instructions and avoid harsh chemicals or high heat drying/ironing, which can flatten the 'peach' texture.

Ensure all seams are properly taped and undamaged. Check if the DWR coating needs to be reapplied. Wash according to care instructions, as residual dirt can affect performance.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid excessive force.

Ensure you are not wearing overly insulating layers underneath in warmer, humid conditions. Wash the jacket to remove any build-up of body oils or detergents that could impede breathability.
