Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Matteth Waterproof Shell Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and daily commuters seeking a lightweight, packable barrier against unpredictable weather. Engineered with high-performance ISOTEX 15000 fabric, this jacket provides professional-grade waterproof and windproof protection while maintaining a minimalist aesthetic suitable for urban or trail environments; however, as a dedicated shell, it lacks built-in insulation, requiring users to layer appropriately in colder temperatures.

FAQs
Is this jacket insulated?
No, the Matteth is a lightweight waterproof shell designed for layering.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical fabric cleaner.
Is the hood removable?
The hood is an integrated part of the jacket design.
What does ISOTEX 15000 mean?
It is a technical rating indicating the fabric is both highly waterproof (up to 15,000mm hydrostatic head) and breathable.

Is it suitable for heavy rain?

Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash with a technical gear cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
This is often caused by condensation rather than a leak. Ensure you are wearing breathable base layers and utilize the jacket's breathability by adjusting zippers during high-exertion activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because the Matteth is a technical garment, proper maintenance is vital to preserving its waterproof properties. Always check the internal garment label for specific care instructions, but standard maintenance involves washing on a gentle cycle with a specialized technical fabric cleaner. Avoid standard detergents, which can clog the membrane's pores. To maintain the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, occasionally tumble dry on a low setting or iron on low heat to reactivate the water-repelling coating. For sizing, ensure you account for the layers you intend to wear underneath, as the jacket is tailored for a standard fit.
