FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, the Regatta Nurie Quilted Jacket features a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish that protects against light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof and would not be suitable for heavy downpours.
What is 'feather-free down insulation'?
Feather-free down insulation refers to a synthetic alternative to traditional down. It's designed to provide similar warmth and loft characteristics to natural down but is made from polyester fibers, making it suitable for those who prefer animal-friendly options.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, you can machine wash the jacket. Please follow the care instructions: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, use mild detergent, and avoid bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls to help maintain insulation loft.
How do I maintain the water repellency?
The DWR finish can wear off over time and with washing. To maintain or restore water repellency, you can use a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in product specifically designed for technical outerwear after cleaning the jacket.
Does this jacket have an adjustable waist or cuffs?
Info needed: The description does not explicitly mention adjustable waist or cuffs. Typically, quilted jackets of this style have a straight fit and standard cuffs.
Is this jacket breathable?
As the jacket is made from 100% polyester with a water-repellent finish and insulation, it offers reasonable comfort for everyday wear. However, synthetic materials and DWR can limit breathability compared to uninsulated, non-treated garments, especially during high-exertion activities.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads on the surface of the jacket.
This indicates the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish needs refreshing. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and then apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment designed for outerwear. Heat activation (e.g., a low tumble dry) often helps.
Jacket feels less warm or insulation seems flat.
After washing or prolonged compression, insulation can flatten. Tumble dry on low heat with 2-3 clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up clumps and restore the loft of the feather-free insulation, improving warmth.
Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Try lubricating the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil (rub the lead along the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant. Make sure to pull the zipper straight and avoid forcing it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Upon receiving your Regatta Nurie Quilted Jacket, simply remove it from its packaging. It is ready to wear immediately. Consider an initial gentle wash according to care instructions to remove any manufacturing residue, though this is not strictly necessary.
Compatibility
This jacket is designed for versatility. Its medium weight and taffeta lining make it easy to layer over various garments, from lightweight tops to thicker sweaters. It pairs well with casual attire like jeans, trousers, or skirts, making it suitable for a wide range of casual outings and daily errands.
Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the jacket's performance and appearance.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing to prevent snagging.
- Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the water-repellent finish and insulation.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls (if available) to help fluff the insulation. Do not iron. Air drying is also an option but may take longer.
- Water Repellency: The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may need periodic re-application over time, especially after several washes. Use a DWR-restoring product specifically designed for outerwear to maintain its water-shedding properties.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a clean, dry place. Avoid compressing it for extended periods to maintain the loft of the insulation.
