Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Clumber Hybrid Jacket in Pink Haze and Powder Lilac is designed for women seeking lightweight warmth and flexibility for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is the combination of synthetic down insulation with a water-repellent finish, offering protection against light rain and chill. A potential caveat is its compressibility, which while useful for packing, may mean it's less bulky than traditional insulated jackets for extreme cold.

FAQs
What is the primary function of the Extol Stretch material?
The Extol Stretch material is designed to provide enhanced flexibility and freedom of movement, allowing the jacket to adapt to your body's natural motion during physical activities.
How does the Warmloft filling compare to natural down?
Warmloft is a synthetic insulation that mimics the warmth and loft of natural down but retains its insulating properties even when damp, making it more practical for varied weather conditions.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket has a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light rain and showers. For heavy or prolonged rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over this jacket.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold winter weather?
While it provides good insulation for its weight, it is best suited for mild to cool conditions. For extreme cold, it can serve as an effective insulating mid-layer beneath a heavier, more protective outer jacket.
How should I wash the jacket to maintain its water repellency?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting, preferably with tennis balls to restore loft. Do not iron.
What does 'compressible' mean in the product description?
Compressible means the jacket can be easily squeezed or folded into a small volume, making it convenient to pack into a bag or backpack when not in use.
Does the jacket have an adjustable hem or hood?
The jacket features stretch binding at the hem for a snug fit, but it does not have an adjustable hem drawcord or a hood. It has a high-neck design for warmth.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not as warm as expected.
Ensure the jacket is fully zipped and the high neck is snug. For colder conditions, consider using it as a mid-layer with a more insulated outer jacket. Check that the synthetic down hasn't become overly compressed from prolonged storage.
Water repellency seems reduced.
The DWR finish may wear off over time. Reapply a specific DWR treatment spray suitable for outdoor clothing after washing and drying according to care instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede water repellency.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Jacket feels restrictive during movement.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The Extol Stretch fabric offers flexibility, but an improperly sized jacket can still feel constricting.
