Full details

Its key benefit is providing reliable dryness and comfort during outdoor activities like hiking or commuting, thanks to advanced Isotex 15000 fabric and sealed seams.

FAQs
What does Isotex 15000 mean?
Isotex 15000 is Regatta's advanced waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '15000' indicates a hydrostatic head rating of 15,000mm, meaning it can withstand water pressure equivalent to a 15-meter column of water, and a breathability rating of 15,000g/m²/24 hours, allowing significant moisture vapor to escape.
How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof over time?
Regular cleaning with a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners or harsh chemicals is crucial. After washing and drying, applying a DWR re-proofer will help maintain the water-repellent properties of the outer fabric.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The Hamara IV is designed as a waterproof and breathable shell. For very cold weather, layering with insulating clothing such as fleece or down will be necessary to provide warmth.
What material is the jacket made from?
The main fabric is 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester (118 g/m²). The lining is 100% recycled polyester taffeta (60 g/m²) with a printed mesh lining.
Are the cuffs adjustable?
Yes, the cuffs are partly elasticated with a curved top pattern for a snug fit.
Is there a pocket for valuables?
Yes, there is an internal zipped security pocket designed to keep your essential items safe.
What is the benefit of the wired hood?
The wired technical hood with a peak provides better shape and structure, allowing for a more secure and customizable fit to protect you from wind and rain while maintaining visibility.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket and reapply a technical fabric re-proofer according to the product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or beeswax to the teeth.
Jacket feels damp inside despite being waterproof
Ensure the jacket is fully zipped and cuffs/hem are adjusted correctly. Check that the breathability of the fabric is not compromised by dirt; clean as per care instructions. Consider personal layering for moisture management.
