The Regatta Light Insect Repellent Travel Body Warmer is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and frequent travelers who require a balance of mobility, storage, and protection. Crafted from durable Isoflex ripstop fabric, this gilet features built-in insect repellent technology and a water-repellent finish, making it a reliable layer for unpredictable environments. While its technical features are robust, users should note that as a sleeveless garment, it is best suited for layering rather than providing full-arm thermal insulation.

The repellent technology is integrated into the fabric fibers. However, if you have specific skin sensitivities, it is recommended to wear a long-sleeved base layer underneath.
Yes, you can machine wash it. Always check the internal care label for specific temperature settings and avoid fabric softeners.
Regatta sizes are generally designed for a standard fit. If you intend to wear thick layers underneath, you may consider if a slightly looser fit is needed, though the stretch fabric offers some flexibility.
The treatment is designed to remain effective for many washes, but its lifespan depends on the intensity of the wash cycles and the detergents used.
The garment features a mix of zip-secured pockets and flap-covered pockets to provide both security and quick-access storage.
Clean the zipper teeth of any debris or dirt and apply a light touch of silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
The DWR finish may need reactivation. Clean the garment and apply a heat source (like a tumble dryer on low) or use a DWR spray treatment.
To maintain the integrity of the insect repellent technology and the water-repellent finish, follow the specific care instructions on the garment label. Generally, it is recommended to wash with mild, non-biological detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners, which can impede the DWR coating. For re-activating the water-repellent finish, tumble drying on a low setting or using a dedicated DWR re-proofer after cleaning is effective. Ensure all pocket zips are closed before washing to prevent snagging during the cycle.
