Product Information
Full details
This Regatta Matt II men's hiking jacket is designed for adult males who need reliable protection during outdoor activities in wet weather. Its key benefit is offering waterproof, breathable, and flexible comfort thanks to Isotex 15000 stretch fabric. A potential caveat is that while highly water-repellent, it is a shell jacket and may require layering for significant cold.

FAQs
What does 'Isotex 15000' mean?
Isotex 15000 is a waterproof and breathable coating technology. '15000' refers to its hydrostatic head rating, indicating its resistance to water penetration (15,000mm), and its breathability rating (15,000 g/m²/24hr), which measures how much water vapor can pass through it.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softener, and dry cleaning. Line dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Can this jacket be used in very cold weather?
This is a shell jacket, meaning it is designed for waterproofing and wind resistance. For very cold weather, you will need to layer appropriate insulating clothing underneath.
Is the hood detachable?
The hood is adjustable and foldable for packaway storage, but it is not detachable.
What is the benefit of taped seams?
Taped seams prevent water from leaking through the stitch holes, ensuring the jacket provides full waterproof protection.
How should I maintain the jacket's water repellency?
Regularly clean the jacket according to care instructions and periodically re-apply a fabric waterproofing treatment, especially after washing.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% polyester STRETCH ISOTEX 15000 waterproof and breathable fabric, weighing 165 g/m².
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer fully waterproof.
The Durable Water Repellency (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Re-apply a fabric waterproofing treatment according to the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the teeth.
Jacket feels clammy inside.
Ensure all vents (if applicable) are open and that the clothing worn underneath is also breathable. Check that the jacket is not excessively tight, which can hinder airflow.
