FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it resists light rain, but it is not waterproof and will not withstand heavy or prolonged downpours.
Can I wear this as a winter coat?
It serves as an excellent mid-layer during winter. For extreme cold, it is recommended to wear it beneath a waterproof outer shell.
What is the benefit of hybrid construction?
Hybrid construction provides heat where you need it (core) and breathability/movement where you need it most (underarms and sides).
Does the jacket come with a hood?
The Andreson Hybrid features a standing collar, not a hood.
How should I store the jacket long-term?
Store it hanging in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it in a stuff sack for extended periods to maintain the integrity of the insulation.
Troubleshooting
Water is no longer beading on the surface.
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket to remove dirt and apply a technical DWR re-proofer spray.
Insulation feels flattened or clumpy.
After washing, shake the garment periodically while drying to help redistribute the Warmloft fibers and restore loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Andreson Hybrid Padded Jacket, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C using a technical detergent designed for synthetic insulated garments. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-repellent treatment.
- Drying: Air dry naturally on a hanger to maintain the loft of the insulation. Do not tumble dry unless specifically permitted by the care label, as excessive heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Re-proofing: Periodically apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after washing if you notice water no longer beads off the surface of the jacket.
- Layering: The jacket is designed to fit over base layers. Use it under a hard-shell jacket during severe storms to create a comprehensive weather-protection system.
