FAQs
Is the Regatta Andreson Hybrid Gilet waterproof?
No, it is water-repellent, not fully waterproof. It provides protection in light rain. For heavier rain, pair it with a waterproof outer layer.
What is the Warmloft insulation?

Can I machine wash the gilet?
Yes, you can machine wash it cold (30°C) with similar colors, using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners.
How do I maintain the water-repellent finish?
Re-proof the gilet periodically with a DWR spray, following the product instructions.

What is Extol Stretch fabric?

Is the gilet suitable for cold weather?

Troubleshooting
The gilet is not providing enough warmth.
Layer with additional clothing such as a fleece or a thermal base layer. Consider wearing a waterproof jacket on top for added protection and warmth.
The water-repellent finish is not working effectively.
Re-proof the gilet with a DWR spray. Ensure the gilet is clean before applying the spray, and follow the product instructions carefully.
Zippers are sticking.
Gently lubricate the zippers with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap. Avoid forcing the zippers.
The gilet feels too tight or too loose.
Check the size guide and ensure you have the correct size. Consider layering to adjust the fit, or consider exchanging for a different size.
