Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Dover Insulated Bomber Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, weather-resistant outer layer that transitions seamlessly from work sites to casual outdoor settings. Its primary benefit is the combination of a waterproof and windproof exterior with a cozy fleece lining, providing excellent warmth in harsh conditions. However, potential buyers should note that the bomber-style cut offers a more cropped fit compared to traditional parkas, which may not provide as much thigh coverage in driving rain.

FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, the jacket is constructed from waterproof fabric with taped seams to prevent water entry during moderate rain.
Can I wear this in deep winter?
The jacket is well-insulated for mild to cold weather, but for sub-zero temperatures, it is best worn as part of a layering system.
Does it have an internal pocket?
Most variants of the Regatta Dover include functional pockets, though specific internal configuration can vary by production season.
Is the hood detachable?
The standard Dover design focuses on the bomber collar; always check specific product tags as some variants may include a concealed or detachable hood.
What is the best way to determine my size?
The jacket follows standard adult sizing. It is recommended to measure your chest size while wearing a mid-layer to ensure room for movement.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking through the outer fabric
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Re-apply a waterproofing treatment spray after a gentle wash to restore water repellency.
Fleece lining feels matted or less warm
Wash the jacket and use a clean, soft-bristle brush to gently fluff the fleece fibers once the garment is partially dry.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth to remove grit and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to ensure smooth operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Regatta Dover jacket performing at its best, adhere to the following care instructions:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the waterproof coating.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Maintenance: Periodically re-treat the outer shell with a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) spray if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
- Storage: Store on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the garment and prevent the fleece from becoming compressed.
