Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Norana Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult females seeking reliable protection from rain during everyday activities and commutes. Its key benefit is the waterproof and breathable Isotex fabric, which keeps you dry without causing overheating. A potential caveat is that while offering good protection, it is primarily designed for moderate weather conditions and may not be sufficient for extreme downpours or prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of the Isotex 15000 fabric?

Isotex 15000 means the fabric can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure over a 24-hour period, indicating a good level of waterproofing suitable for most wet weather.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its waterproof properties?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning. Periodically reapply a DWR treatment to maintain water repellency.

Is this jacket suitable for very heavy rain or storms?

The jacket offers good protection for moderate rain. For extreme or prolonged heavy downpours, a jacket with a higher waterproof rating might be more appropriate.

Can I adjust the fit of the jacket?

Yes, the jacket features an adjustable shockcord waist, adjustable cuffs with snap fastenings, and a drawcord to the back hem, allowing you to customize the fit.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Yes, it features a grown-on hood with drawcords for adjustable coverage.

What material is the lining made of?

The lining is made of 100% polyester taffeta, providing a smooth interior.

What are the washing instructions for the jacket?

Machine wash at 30°C using a gentle cycle. Do not use bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all seams are intact and that the DWR finish is still effective. Reapply a suitable DWR treatment if necessary, following product instructions. Check that all zippers are fully closed.

Jacket feels warm or less breathable.

Ensure the jacket is not overly layered underneath. If the jacket is dirty, accumulated dirt can affect breathability; clean according to care instructions. Check that ventilation points (if any) are not blocked.

Fittings (snaps, drawcords) are stiff or loose.

For stiff snaps, gently work them a few times. For loose snaps, consult a local tailor for repair. For drawcords, ensure they are not tangled and the toggles are functioning correctly.
