Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Matteth Waterproof Shell Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight outer layer for daily commutes or casual outdoor activities in unpredictable weather. Utilizing Regatta's high-performance ISOTEX 15000 fabric, it delivers excellent wind and water protection in a streamlined, minimalist package; however, as a dedicated shell, it lacks built-in thermal insulation and requires additional layering for warmth in colder temperatures.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Matteth jacket insulated?
No, it is a waterproof shell designed for layering. It does not contain padding or fleece lining.
What does ISOTEX 15000 mean?
It is a proprietary fabric rating indicating the garment is fully waterproof, windproof, and highly breathable.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is generally recommended to hang dry technical shells to preserve the waterproof membrane.
How should I clean the jacket?
Use a specialized technical wash detergent on a gentle cycle and avoid all fabric softeners.
Is this jacket suitable for winter hiking?
Yes, provided you wear sufficient insulating layers underneath to manage your body temperature.
Troubleshooting
Water stops beading on the surface
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Feeling clammy inside the jacket
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking base layers instead of cotton, which traps sweat against your body.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment requires no setup. To maintain the waterproof efficacy of the ISOTEX 15000 fabric, wash the jacket on a gentle cycle using a dedicated technical fabric detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the surface. Always hang dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources. To restore the water-beading performance over time, consider using a spray-on re-proofer once the factory coating begins to wear down.
