Regatta Mens Matt II Waterproof Jacket - Brown - S

Isotex 10000 refers to Regatta's waterproof and breathable fabric technology. The '10000' indicates it can withstand a water column of 10,000mm and allows 10,000g/m²/24hrs of water vapor to pass through, signifying good levels of waterproofing and breathability.

The jacket itself provides wind and rain protection but offers minimal insulation. For cold weather, it is designed to be layered over warmer clothing such as fleeces or insulated mid-layers.

To maintain the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, avoid using fabric softeners or biological detergents during washing. After washing, you can reactivate the DWR by tumble drying on a low heat or ironing on a cool setting (check garment care label). For prolonged effectiveness, consider reapplying a DWR treatment after several washes.

The adjustable hem with a shockcord and the adjustable cuffs allow you to fine-tune the fit. This helps to seal out wind and rain, keeping you warmer and drier, and prevents the jacket from riding up during movement.

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket at 30°C using a mild liquid detergent. Remember to close all zippers and fasteners before washing and rinse thoroughly.

For size S, the jacket is designed to fit a chest size of approximately 38 inches.

Ensure the DWR finish is still active. If not, reapply a suitable water-repellent treatment according to product instructions. Check that all seams are intact.

This can occur with prolonged strenuous activity even with breathable fabrics. Ensure the main zipper is slightly open for ventilation if possible, or consider lighter clothing underneath for very intense efforts.

Ensure the hood is completely dry before attempting to fold and store it. Fold it neatly before zipping it into its compartment.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil lead to the teeth to improve movement. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
