The Regatta Birchdale II Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection during demanding outdoor activities like hiking. Its key benefit is providing fully waterproof and breathable comfort through advanced fabric technology, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable in adverse weather. A potential consideration is its focus on performance, meaning it may offer a more athletic fit rather than a casual, loose style. This jacket features Isotex stretch 15000 fabric, taped seams, a technical hood, and multiple zipped pockets, all constructed from 100% recycled polyester.

The Isotex stretch 15000 fabric is designed to be fully waterproof and breathable, providing comfort and protection against rain and wind while allowing moisture vapor from the body to escape.
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low heat or hang dry. Do not use direct heat.
Taped seams mean that the stitching lines are covered with a waterproof tape, ensuring that no water can penetrate through the needle holes, providing complete waterproof protection.
While the jacket is breathable, it is designed for protection against the elements. In very warm weather, the breathability might be challenged during high exertion. It is best suited for cool to mild conditions, or as an outer layer for colder weather when layered appropriately.
The jacket features adjustable cuffs and an adjustable hem. These can be tightened to create a snugger fit, helping to keep out wind and rain and improve heat retention.
Yes, its waterproof, breathable, and flexible design makes it suitable for various outdoor activities such as trekking, camping, or even everyday wear in inclement weather.
Articulated sleeves are shaped to provide a greater range of motion. This means you can move your arms freely without the jacket riding up or restricting your movement, which is beneficial for active pursuits.
Ensure the jacket is zipped up fully and the hood and cuffs are adjusted correctly to prevent water entry. If the issue persists, the breathability may be overwhelmed by intense exertion. Try opening the main zip slightly or wearing a more breathable base layer.
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying the jacket on a low heat setting for 20 minutes to reactivate the existing DWR. If this does not work, apply a suitable re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.
Clean the zippers with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Gently lubricate the zipper teeth with a wax-based product (like a candle or specialized zipper wax) or a silicone lubricant.
Setup: This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: Designed as outerwear for men, suitable for pairing with base layers and mid-layers for variable weather conditions. It is compatible with hiking boots, backpacks, and other outdoor gear.
Care Instructions: To maintain the jacket's performance:
