Regatta Hamara IV Hooded Waterproof Jacket - Green - Size: 10

The Isotex 10000 fabric has a waterproof rating of 10,000mm, meaning it can withstand the equivalent of 10,000 millimeters of water pressure in a vertical test.

The jacket has a breathability rating of 15,000 g/m²/24 hours, which indicates good moisture vapor permeability, allowing sweat to escape during physical activity.

The jacket provides wind and rain protection, but it is not heavily insulated. For very cold weather, layering with warm mid-layers such as fleece or down is recommended.

The hood features adjusters, typically drawcords, around the face and sometimes at the back. Tighten or loosen these cords to achieve a snug fit that keeps rain out while maintaining visibility.

The pockets are primarily designed for water resistance and protection from light splashes. For valuable items, it's always best to use the inner zipped security pocket, which offers more secure closure.

The frequency depends on usage and care. Generally, re-apply the DWR treatment when water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.

The main material is 70% polyester and 30% polyester textured fabric (118 gsm) with a polyester taffeta lining (60 gsm).

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a suitable DWR treatment to the outer fabric according to the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-application.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or paraffin wax) or a silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Ensure the jacket is not too tight and that all vents (if any) and the hood are adjusted to allow for maximum airflow. Check that the inner clothing layers are also breathable and moisture-wicking.

Carefully try to smooth out any snags. For significant tears, professional repair may be necessary to maintain the jacket's integrity and comfort.
