Regatta Birchdale II Waterproof Jacket - Beige

Isotex 15000 is a waterproof, breathable, and windproof membrane. The '15000' rating indicates it can withstand a water column of 15,000mm and allows 15,000g/m²/24hrs of moisture vapor to pass through, meaning it's highly effective at keeping you dry from both external rain and internal perspiration.

While the jacket is windproof and waterproof, it is primarily designed for protection against rain and wind. For very cold conditions, layering with insulating garments underneath is recommended.

You can reapply the DWR finish using a spray-on or wash-in product designed for waterproof outerwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully, usually involving cleaning the garment and then applying the treatment.

This jacket is ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities such as hiking, walking, camping, commuting, and general everyday use in wet or windy weather.

Yes, the jacket is designed to be layered. Depending on the specific sizing, you can wear a fleece or other mid-layers underneath for added warmth.

Articulated sleeves are pre-shaped to mimic the natural bend of your arm, allowing for greater freedom of movement and preventing the sleeves from riding up when you lift your arms.

The jacket features a grown-on hood with a toggle adjuster and a technical design, intended to provide good protection against wind and rain when properly adjusted.

Ensure all seams are properly taped and intact. If the issue persists, the DWR finish might need reapplication.

Check that all vents and the main zip are open to allow for maximum breathability. Ensure you are not overheating due to excessive layering. The breathability rating is high, but extreme exertion can still lead to some moisture buildup.

Clean the zippers with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
