Product Information
Full details
This Regatta Matt II jacket is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from the elements during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is offering waterproof and breathable performance to keep you comfortable and dry. A potential consideration is that while it offers protection, it may not be insulated for extreme cold without additional layers. Key features include Isotex 10000 polyester fabric, taped seams for full waterproofing, a mesh lining for enhanced ventilation, a packaway hood, and adjustable elements for a personalized fit. It also incorporates recycled content, aligning with sustainability efforts.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter conditions?
The Matt II jacket is primarily a waterproof and windproof shell. It does not have significant insulation. For very cold conditions, you will need to layer a warm fleece or insulated jacket underneath it.
How waterproof is Isotex 10000?
Isotex 10000 means the fabric can withstand a hydrostatic head of 10,000mm. This is considered waterproof and suitable for moderate to heavy rain.
Can I put this jacket in the washing machine?
Yes, you can machine wash the jacket. It is recommended to use a 30°C or 40°C cycle with a non-biological liquid detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Refer to the care label for specific instructions.
How do I re-waterproof the jacket?
You can use a spray-on or wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment. Follow the product instructions carefully. It's best to do this after washing and drying the jacket.
What does 'made with recycled content' mean?
This indicates that parts of the jacket, such as the fabric or linings, are made from recycled materials, contributing to a reduced environmental impact.
Are the cuffs adjustable?
Yes, the jacket features adjustable cuffs, typically with Velcro, allowing you to cinch them for a secure fit and to keep out drafts.
What type of pockets does it have?
The jacket has two zipped lower pockets for hand warming or securing items, and an additional internal pocket, also likely zipped, for valuables.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer beading water effectively
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a new DWR treatment spray or wash-in product.
Jacket feels damp inside during heavy rain
Ensure all seams are properly taped and intact. If breathability is a concern during high exertion, consider layering with a more moisture-wicking base layer. Check that zippers are fully closed.
Hood is difficult to adjust or pack away
Ensure the drawcords are not tangled. Gently work the drawcords to loosen or tighten. For packing, fold the hood neatly before securing it according to the jacket's design.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to help them glide smoothly.

Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C or 40°C (check the care label).
- Detergent: Use a non-biological liquid detergent.
- Bleach/Fabric Softeners: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and DWR treatment.
- Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. A cool iron may be used afterwards if needed.
- Re-proofing: For best performance, re-apply a DWR treatment periodically, especially if the water repellency appears diminished.
