Regatta Waterproof Matt II Shell Jacket - Yellow - XS

Isotex 15000 refers to the fabric's hydrostatic head rating, meaning it can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure before leaking, indicating a high level of waterproofness. It also signifies good breathability.

This is a shell jacket, meaning it's designed to protect from rain and wind. For significant warmth in winter, you will need to layer insulating items like fleece or down jackets underneath it.

You can use a wash-in waterproofing treatment or a spray-on DWR (Durable Water Repellent) product. Follow the product instructions carefully, and typically, a low heat tumble dry will help activate the treatment.

Yes, the jacket is designed with breathable, stretch fabric, making it suitable for activities with high exertion levels like running or climbing, where staying dry from both rain and sweat is important.

Taped seams are a strip of waterproof tape applied over the seams on the inside of the jacket. This prevents water from seeping through the small holes created by the stitching, ensuring the jacket is fully waterproof.

It's best to store the jacket clean and dry. You can fold it or roll it. Avoid storing it in a compressed state for extended periods, as this can damage the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties over time.

Ensure the jacket has been washed correctly and that any DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment is still active. If the DWR has worn off, consider applying a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and warm water. Apply a wax-based lubricant or a silicone spray designed for zippers.

This may indicate that the breathability is being overwhelmed by high exertion or humidity. Ensure all vents are open and consider wearing moisture-wicking base layers. Wash the jacket to remove any buildup that might impede breathability.
