FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the Regatta Andel IV jacket features a Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish, which means it will repel light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy downpours.
How should I wash this jacket?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low with tennis balls to fluff the insulation, or hang dry.
Is the insulation made from real down?
No, it features feather-free premium synthetic down insulation, offering warmth without animal products.
Can I wear this jacket in winter?
The jacket provides medium-weight warmth. For moderate winter conditions, it's suitable, but for very cold temperatures, layering with additional warm clothing underneath is recommended.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the jacket is equipped with zipped pockets to securely store your essentials.
What does 'recycled materials' mean?
Parts of this jacket are made using recycled polyester, contributing to a reduced environmental impact by repurposing existing materials.
Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem warm enough in cold weather
The Andel IV features medium-weight insulation. For colder conditions, layer effectively with a base layer and/or a fleece underneath for enhanced warmth.
Water isn't beading off the jacket anymore
The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may need re-activating or re-applying. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, and if the repellency doesn't return, apply a suitable DWR re-proofer spray or wash-in treatment.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure the fabric isn't caught in the zipper. Gently work the zipper back and forth. If it remains stiff, a small amount of zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth.
