Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Waterproof Matt II Jacket is designed for adult men seeking reliable protection during outdoor activities like hiking and climbing. Its primary benefit is the combination of waterproof, breathable, and stretch fabric, ensuring comfort and freedom of movement in adverse weather. A potential caveat is that while it offers significant protection, extreme conditions might require layering for added warmth. Key features include Isotex 15000 stretch fabric, taped seams for enhanced waterproofing, and a packaway hood for convenience.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?

The jacket provides excellent protection against rain and wind. For extreme cold, it is recommended to layer it over insulating mid-layers and a base layer to achieve sufficient warmth.

How do I wash the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, close all zippers and fasteners, and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid bleach and ironing.

What does 'Isotex 15000' mean?

Isotex 15000 refers to the fabric's waterproof rating (15000mm hydrostatic head) and breathability rating (likely 15000g/m²/24hrs), indicating good performance in both areas.

Can the hood be detached?

The jacket features a packaway hood, meaning it can be rolled up and stored within the collar. It is typically not designed to be fully detached.

What kind of activities is this jacket best for?

It is ideal for hiking, walking, climbing, and general outdoor activities where protection from rain and wind is needed, while allowing for freedom of movement.

Does the stretch fabric affect its waterproofness?

No, the Isotex 15000 stretch fabric is engineered to maintain its waterproof and breathable properties while offering elasticity.

Troubleshooting

Water seeping through seams.

Ensure all seams are properly taped and that no damage has occurred to the tape. If damage is present, professional repair may be needed. For minor issues, consider a seam sealer designed for waterproof garments.

Jacket feels clammy or less breathable.

Ensure the inner lining is clean and free of debris. Check that ventilation zippers (if present) are open. Overheating can sometimes mimic reduced breathability; ensure appropriate layering for the conditions.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently pull the zipper while trying to move it. Apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or beeswax) or a zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper slider.
