Full details

This Regatta Hamara IV women's waterproof jacket is designed for adult females seeking reliable protection during all-weather outdoor activities. Its key benefit is offering superior weatherproof and breathable performance, keeping you dry and comfortable on hikes, commutes, and weekend walks. A potential caveat is that its technical features may be more than needed for casual, light rain use.

FAQs

What does Isotex 15000 mean?

Isotex 15000 refers to the fabric's rating, indicating it is waterproof to 15,000 hydrostatic head (mm) and breathable to 15,000 g/m²/24 hours. This offers a high level of protection against rain and allows perspiration vapor to escape.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The jacket itself is designed for weather protection rather than insulation. For very cold weather, it's recommended to layer a warm fleece or insulating jacket underneath.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or dry clean. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry.

Can I wash the jacket with recycled content?

Yes, the jacket contains 30% recycled polyester in its main fabric and a 100% recycled polyester lining. Standard washing instructions apply.

How do I ensure the jacket remains waterproof over time?

Regularly wash the jacket as per care instructions and re-apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment periodically to maintain its water-repellent properties.

What is the purpose of the wired hood?

The wire in the hood's peak provides structure and shape, allowing you to adjust it to better shield your face from rain and wind without obstructing your vision.

Is the jacket made entirely of polyester?

The main fabric is primarily polyester (70% polyester, 30% recycled polyester). The lining is 100% recycled polyester taffeta, with a printed mesh lining also present.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a new DWR treatment, following the product's specific guidelines.

Hood adjustment is difficult.

Ensure the hood drawcords are not tangled or obstructed. Gently pull and adjust the toggles to tighten or loosen the hood.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. You can also apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.

Inner lining feels damp after activity.

While the jacket is breathable, intense activity can sometimes lead to internal moisture buildup. Ensure all vents (if any) are open and consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers. Check that the main zipper is fully closed during use.
