Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Daledon Waterproof Shell Jacket is a high-performance outdoor garment engineered for adult males who require reliable protection in unpredictable weather. Utilizing advanced Isotex 15000 technology, it offers superior waterproof, windproof, and breathable qualities, making it ideal for hiking and trekking in wet environments. While it provides excellent protection against the elements, the lightweight fabric is primarily designed as a shell layer, meaning users may need to add thermal base or mid-layers for warmth in extremely cold temperatures.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

Yes, provided you wear sufficient insulating layers underneath, as this is a shell jacket and does not have built-in insulation.

What does Isotex 15000 mean?

It refers to the fabric's performance rating, specifically that it can withstand 15,000mm of water pressure, making it highly waterproof.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is generally recommended to air dry the jacket to preserve the integrity of the taped seams and waterproof coating.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is fixed but features a toggle adjuster to allow for a snug, protective fit.

How do I choose the right size?

The Daledon fits true to size for a shell jacket, meant to accommodate layers underneath. Refer to the size guide for specific XXL measurements.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the outer fabric

The DWR coating has worn off. Wash the garment with a technical cleaner and apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment.

Build-up of moisture inside the jacket

Ensure you are using appropriate, moisture-wicking base layers. If moving at high intensity, open the front zip slightly to increase ventilation.

Stiff zip or snap closure

Check for debris or dirt in the teeth of the zipper and rinse with clean water to clear any grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Regatta Daledon remains effective, proper care is essential. When the jacket begins to 'wet out'—where water soaks into the fabric rather than beading on the surface—it is time to reapply a durable water-repellent (DWR) spray. Always wash in cool water using a technical gear wash; avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the waterproof membrane. After washing, hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators. Because this is a shell, it is compatible with most standard layering systems, allowing you to easily adjust your clothing underneath to match the day's temperature.
