The Regatta Birchdale II is a high-performance waterproof jacket engineered for active women who require reliable protection during challenging outdoor excursions. Featuring Isotex 15000 stretch fabric, it offers an exceptional balance of breathability and rain resistance, though its specialized technical construction requires careful cleaning to maintain its DWR coating over time.

The 15000 rating refers to the hydrostatic head test, meaning the fabric can withstand the pressure of a 15,000mm column of water before leakage occurs, indicating high waterproof capabilities.
Check the garment's internal care label first, but generally, only use a low-heat setting if directed, as excessive heat can damage the waterproof membrane and taped seams.
Yes, the Isotex material and the sealed construction make the Birchdale II effectively windproof, making it suitable for exposed mountain environments.
The jacket features multiple pockets for storage, but please check the specific configuration on your model to see if an internal security pocket is included.
Store it hanging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent degradation of the synthetic fibres and waterproof coatings.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical gear cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Ensure your base layers are moisture-wicking synthetic or wool, rather than cotton, to help the breathable membrane move sweat away effectively.
To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always zip up the front and secure all hook-and-loop cuffs before placing the garment in the washing machine. Wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner specifically formulated for waterproof breathable membranes rather than standard detergent, as traditional soaps can strip the factory-applied water-repellent (DWR) coating. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these will damage the fabric's performance features. For best results, air dry the jacket away from direct heat sources. Periodically test the water repellency; if water stops beading on the surface, you may need to re-apply a DWR spray treatment to maintain performance.
