Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Merzen Waterproof Insulated Jacket is an excellent choice for adults seeking a reliable, stylish outer layer for everyday outdoor activities in unpredictable weather. Featuring high-performance ISOTEX 30000 stretch fabric and WARMLOFT insulation, it provides an exceptional balance of breathability, waterproof protection, and warmth. While its longer length offers superior coverage, users should note that the heavier insulation and length may feel too warm for high-intensity physical activities in mild temperatures.

FAQs
Is the hood detachable?
The product features an adjustable hood, but it is typically fixed to the collar for maximum weather protection.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle and a technical outdoor gear cleaner.
Does this jacket have inner pockets?
Yes, it includes internal security pockets for safe storage of valuable items like keys or a phone.
Is the fabric noisy when moving?
The ISOTEX 30000 stretch fabric is designed to be quieter and softer than traditional stiff waterproof materials.
Will this keep me warm in freezing temperatures?
With WARMLOFT insulation, it provides significant warmth, though layering underneath is recommended for extreme sub-zero conditions.
Is the fit true to size?
The Merzen jacket is designed with a standard adult fit. If you plan to layer thick jumpers underneath, some users prefer to size up.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the outer surface
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.
Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof shell
Ensure you are not overdressing underneath, as high-exertion sweat can accumulate if the jacket is too warm for your activity level.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a technical garment, proper care is essential to maintain its waterproof integrity. Always check the internal care label before cleaning. Generally, it is recommended to wash on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner suitable for waterproof fabrics rather than harsh biological detergents. Ensure all zippers and velcro closures are secured before washing. To maintain the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish on the outer fabric, you may need to re-proof the jacket periodically using a spray-on or wash-in treatment once water stops beading on the surface. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the breathable membrane.
