Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Merida Bodywarmer is designed for active adults who need a versatile, lightweight insulating layer for everyday outdoor pursuits like walking, travel, or casual wear. Its key benefit is the high-performance synthetic insulation that provides core warmth without the bulk or restriction of full-sleeved jackets, allowing for excellent mobility during activity. One caveat to keep in mind is that the water-repellent finish is designed to handle light precipitation and is not a replacement for a fully waterproof shell jacket in heavy rain.

FAQs

Is the Merida bodywarmer waterproof?

It features a long-lasting water-repellent finish, which is designed to shed light rain, but it is not waterproof and should not be used as a primary defense in heavy downpours.

Can I remove the hood?

Yes, the hood is fully removable and includes an adjustable mechanism for a customized fit.

What type of insulation does it use?

It uses premium feather-free synthetic insulation, making it a great cruelty-free alternative to traditional down.

How many pockets does it have?

It has four pockets in total: two zipped pockets on the lower outside and two internal security pockets.

Does it run true to size?

The Merida is designed for layering; we recommend ordering your standard size, but if you intend to wear very thick knits underneath, you may want to consider your layering habits.

Can this be worn under a larger winter coat?

Yes, because of its lightweight synthetic construction, it works perfectly as a mid-layer to provide extra core warmth without excessive bulk.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface

The DWR finish may have worn off; wash with a technical cleaner and reapply a DWR spray treatment.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Check for fabric caught in the teeth or use a small amount of graphite or specialized zip lubricant to ease movement.

Insulation feels uneven after washing

Gently shake the garment to redistribute the synthetic fibers once it is mostly dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent core warmth without restricting arm movement

  • Secure storage with both external and internal pockets
  • Removable hood provides adaptability for different weather conditions
  • Lightweight and packable for travel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Regatta Merida Bodywarmer requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure long-term performance, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30 degrees Celsius using a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Do not tumble dry unless specified on the garment label; air drying is recommended to maintain the insulation structure.
  3. Reproofing: If water beads stop forming on the outer fabric, use a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to restore its protective properties.
  4. Compatibility: Best paired with breathable long-sleeve fleeces or thermal base layers for maximum thermal efficiency.
