Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Merzen Waterproof Insulated Jacket is an excellent choice for men who require dependable weather protection during daily commutes or casual outdoor excursions. Built with high-performance ISOTEX 30000 stretch fabric and WARMLOFT insulation, it excels at keeping you dry and warm in harsh, wet conditions; however, its longer length and insulated design may feel too heavy for high-intensity aerobic activities like trail running.

FAQs
Is the hood removable?
No, the hood is integrated into the jacket design to ensure maximum waterproof integrity.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is best to air dry, but you may tumble dry on a low, cool setting if the care label permits, as the heat can actually help reactivate the water-repellent treatment.
Does the material have any stretch?
Yes, the ISOTEX 30000 fabric is designed with stretch properties to allow for greater comfort and mobility.
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
It is highly suitable for cold and wet autumn and winter conditions thanks to the WARMLOFT insulation.
Where are the security pockets located?
There are secure pockets located on the interior of the jacket to protect items like your phone or wallet.
How should I measure to find the right size?
Measure your chest at the fullest part and compare it to the standard size guide; since this is a winter-style jacket, you may want to size up if you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has likely worn off. Clean the jacket and apply a fresh DWR spray treatment.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
This may be condensation if you are working too hard for the jacket's breathability rating. Try wearing lighter layers underneath.
Zipper sticking or catching
Check for fabric stuck in the teeth. If it remains stiff, gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a dedicated zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is an insulated waterproof garment, proper care is essential for maintaining its functionality. Always close all zippers and fasten any hook-and-loop closures before placing the jacket in the washing machine. Wash using a gentle cycle with a specialized tech-wash detergent to avoid damaging the waterproof membrane. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water-repellent (DWR) coating from the fabric surface. If you notice water no longer beads off the surface after extended use, consider using a re-waterproofing treatment spray after washing. The jacket is designed to be worn over standard mid-layers or sweaters due to its relaxed fit.
