Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Aldthorn Body Warmer is an ideal choice for adult men seeking a versatile, insulated layer for outdoor activities during cooler weather. This sleeveless gilet provides exceptional core warmth through its 300gsm synthetic down insulation while remaining lightweight and durable; however, as a sleeveless garment, it is primarily designed for layering rather than providing full-arm protection against extreme wind or rain.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Aldthorn machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle, but avoid fabric softeners.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
The water-repellent finish is designed for light showers; it is not waterproof and should be layered under a shell in heavy rain.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is a grown-on (fixed) design.
What is the insulation made of?
The gilet uses synthetic down insulation made from recycled polyester materials.
Are the pockets secure?
The two side pockets feature zip closures, and there is an additional internal pocket for valuables.
How do I adjust the fit at the bottom?
There is a shockcord hem at the base of the gilet that you can pull and secure to tighten the fit.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellent finish seems ineffective
Apply a specialized water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment to restore the DWR coating.
Zip is sticking or hard to pull
Check for fabric stuck in the teeth. Gently remove any lint or debris from the zipper track.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your body warmer lasts, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Ensure the shockcord hem is adjusted to sit comfortably against your waist to prevent drafts from entering.
- Layering: Wear over moisture-wicking base layers for optimal performance.
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent specifically designed for synthetic technical fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can impair the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Air dry the garment on a hanger away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the insulation fibers. Do not bleach or iron.
