Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Matt II Jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection during outdoor activities, particularly hiking and walking in wet weather. Its key benefit is providing waterproof and breathable comfort thanks to Isotex 15000 stretch fabric and taped seams. A potential caveat is that while designed for movement, its primary focus is weather protection, which might slightly impact ultimate freedom of movement compared to a purely athletic-focused jacket. This jacket offers robust defense against the elements, featuring a packaway hood, adjustable elements, and secure pocketing.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Regatta Matt II Jacket?

The Regatta Matt II Jacket is primarily designed for outdoor activities like hiking and walking, offering waterproof and breathable protection in wet weather conditions.

How waterproof is the Isotex 15000 fabric?

Isotex 15000 fabric provides a high level of waterproofing. The '15000' refers to the hydrostatic head rating, indicating it can withstand a column of water 15,000 millimeters high before leaking.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

This jacket is designed for waterproofing and breathability. For very cold weather, you would typically layer a warm insulating jacket (like a fleece or down jacket) underneath it.

How should I clean the jacket to maintain its performance?

Machine wash on a cool setting using a Regatta Isotex cleaner or pure soap. Avoid biological detergents and fabric softeners. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry. Do not iron.

Does the jacket have a hood?

Yes, the jacket features an adjustable, packaway hood that can be stored within the collar when not in use.

What are the key differences between the Matt II Jacket and other Regatta jackets?

The Matt II Jacket features Isotex 15000 stretch fabric, taped seams, and a DWR finish, making it a versatile option for general outdoor use. Other jackets might have different fabric ratings, features (like insulation or specific venting), or be tailored for more specialized activities.

What does 'breathable' mean in the context of this jacket?

Breathable means that moisture vapor (sweat) can pass through the fabric from the inside to the outside. The Isotex 15000 rating indicates it allows 15,000g of water vapor to escape per square meter over a 24-hour period.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer waterproof.

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-application, as dirt can affect performance.

Reduced breathability, feeling clammy inside.

Check that the jacket is clean. Body oils and dirt can clog the fabric's pores. Wash the jacket using a specific Isotex cleaner or pure soap, and rinse thoroughly. Ensure vents, if present, are open.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. Lubricate with a silicone-based lubricant or wax if necessary.

Seams are leaking.

Inspect the taped seams for any damage or peeling. If damage is found, the jacket's waterproof integrity may be compromised. Contact customer service for repair or replacement options if within warranty.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and breathability for extended outdoor comfort.
  • Durable construction with taped seams for reliable protection.
  • Adjustable features (hood, cuffs, hem) allow for a personalized fit.
  • Lightweight and stretch fabric design promotes ease of movement.
  • Practical storage with multiple zipped pockets.

Cons

  • Breathability rating (15,000 g/m²/24 hours) might be less than some high-end, specialized athletic wear.
  • Composition includes recycled polyester, which is environmentally friendly but may have different long-term wear characteristics compared to virgin polyester.
  • Primarily designed for hiking and walking; may not be suitable for extreme mountaineering conditions.
  • Care instructions require specific washing methods (using Regatta Isotex cleaner or pure soap).

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

The jacket requires no complex setup. Simply unpack and adjust the hood, cuffs, and hem to your desired fit before wearing.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed as an outer layer and can be worn over various clothing, including base layers, fleeces, or light sweaters, depending on the temperature.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a cool setting using either a Regatta Isotex cleaner or pure soap. Avoid using biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the fabric's performance.
  • Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly after washing.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry away from direct heat sources. Re-apply a water-repellent finish after washing if needed, following the product instructions.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. Refer to the care label inside the garment for specific, detailed instructions.
