Full details
The Regatta Norana Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult females seeking reliable protection from downpours during everyday wear and commutes.

Troubleshooting
Jacket is leaking water
Check that all seams are properly taped and that the DWR finish is still effective. Wash the jacket and consider reapplying a waterproofing treatment.
Jacket feels clammy inside
Ensure the garment is not too tight, allowing for air circulation. Check that the breathability rating is sufficient for your activity level. Avoid wearing non-breathable layers underneath.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly and try moving the zipper. A silicone-based lubricant can also be applied sparingly.
Adjustable drawcords are tangled
Carefully untangle the drawcords. If they are damaged, they may need to be replaced.
