FAQs

What does Isotex 15000 mean?

Isotex 15000 refers to the hydrostatic head rating of the fabric, meaning it can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure before leaking. This indicates a high level of waterproofing suitable for heavy rain.

Is this jacket insulated?

The Hamara IV is primarily a waterproof shell jacket. It is not heavily insulated and is designed to be worn with layers underneath for warmth, making it versatile across different temperatures.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours using a technical wash detergent. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low heat or hang dry. Avoid fabric conditioners and bleach.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

Yes, by layering appropriately underneath. The jacket provides a waterproof and windproof outer barrier, which is essential for retaining warmth in cold conditions when combined with thermal layers.

What is the warranty period for this jacket?

Regatta typically offers a standard warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to the specific product documentation or retailer for exact warranty terms and duration, as this can vary.

Does the hood detach?

The product description does not specify if the hood is detachable. Many Regatta jackets feature adjustable or fixed hoods. It is recommended to check the product details or images for specific models.

What is the best way to store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid long-term storage in tightly compressed bags, as this can damage the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties. Hanging is ideal.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof (water soaks in)

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and re-apply a suitable waterproofing treatment according to the product instructions.

Jacket feels clammy inside despite being dry outside

This could indicate reduced breathability. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can clog the membrane pores. Wash with a technical cleaner and rinse thoroughly. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability may be compromised over time.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or salt. Apply a graphite pencil or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve smooth operation.

Seams are leaking

Check if the tape on the seams is peeling or damaged. If minor damage occurs, a seam sealer might provide a temporary fix. However, significant seam tape damage may indicate a defect.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing to keep you dry in heavy rain.
  • Breathable fabric prevents overheating during physical activity.
  • Taped seams ensure no water leaks through stitching.
  • Adjustable elements allow for a personalized and secure fit.
  • Durable construction for long-lasting use in outdoor environments.

Cons

  • May not be insulated for extreme cold weather.
  • Fit can be subjective and might require trying different sizes.
  • Breathability, while good, may be limited during very high-intensity activities.
  • The primary color family is brown, which might not suit all aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no specific setup; it is ready to wear out of the package. Ensure all zippers are fully closed and any adjustable cords are set to your preference before heading outdoors.

Compatibility: The Hamara IV jacket is designed for general outdoor and casual wear. It is compatible with layering; wear it over base layers or mid-layers for added warmth in cooler conditions.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Use a fabric conditioner sparingly, if at all, as it can affect the waterproofing.
  2. Detergent: Use a specific technical wash detergent designed for waterproof and breathable fabrics. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
  3. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue.
  4. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
  5. Re-proofing: For optimal performance, re-apply a waterproofing treatment (e.g., spray or wash-in) annually or when water no longer beads on the fabric surface. Follow the product instructions for the re-proofing agent.
