Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Marizion Quilted Gilet is an ideal layering piece for active women seeking lightweight warmth and water resistance without unnecessary bulk. Designed for outdoor enthusiasts and everyday commuters, this down-free gilet utilizes recycled synthetic insulation to keep you cozy in fluctuating weather. While it offers excellent protection against light rain, it is intended as a mid-layer or light outer layer and may not provide sufficient warmth for extreme sub-zero temperatures or heavy, prolonged downpours.

FAQs
Is the insulation recycled?
Yes, the gilet uses recycled premium synthetic down insulation.
Can I wear this under a waterproof jacket?
Absolutely. Its low-bulk design makes it an excellent mid-layer for extra warmth under a heavier waterproof outer shell.
Is this gilet machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle, cool cycle, but we recommend avoiding harsh fabric softeners.
Does the gilet have an inside pocket?
No, this model features two external zipped lower pockets for secure storage.
How does the size 14 fit?
The Regatta sizing for a UK 14 follows standard sizing, with stretch-bound armholes and hem to ensure a secure, comfortable fit.
Troubleshooting
Outer fabric is soaking through in rain
The water-repellent coating (DWR) likely needs refreshing. Clean the garment and apply a DWR spray treatment to restore the water-shedding performance.
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Check the zipper track for debris or fabric caught in the teeth. Clean with a soft brush and apply a tiny amount of candle wax or specialized zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Regatta Marizion Quilted Gilet remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines. Always check the internal garment label for specific washing instructions. Generally, it is best to machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-repellent treatment on the outer shell. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the shape and longevity of the synthetic insulation. If the water-repellent performance begins to fade after heavy use, consider using a specialized re-proofing spray designed for synthetic outdoor gear to restore its weather-resistant properties.
