FAQs

What is Airtrap technology?

Airtrap technology is designed to capture air within the fabric's structure, creating an insulating layer that helps keep you warmer.

Is this gilet suitable for heavy rain?

The gilet has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain and showers. For heavy or prolonged rain, it is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer over the gilet.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the product's size chart for specific measurements. Since this is a gilet designed for layering, consider if you prefer a snug fit or more room for thicker layers underneath when selecting your size.

Can I wear this gilet in summer?

This gilet is designed for warmth and is best suited for cooler temperatures in spring, autumn, and mild winter days, or as a layer during colder summer evenings.

What does 'Eco Friendly, Made from Recycled Materials' mean?

This means the gilet is constructed using materials that have been recycled, reducing waste and the environmental impact associated with producing new materials.

How often should I re-waterproof the gilet?

The frequency depends on usage and exposure to water. It's advisable to re-waterproof when you notice water no longer beads up on the surface, typically after several washes or significant wear.

Troubleshooting

Gilet not warm enough

Layer the gilet over a thermal base layer or under a waterproof shell for added warmth and protection.

Water repellency seems reduced

Clean the gilet according to care instructions and consider applying a suitable re-waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Zipper is sticking

Gently pull the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.

Material feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are not using fabric softener. A gentle tumble dry on a low heat setting might help restore softness.

Pros and Cons

  • Water repellent finish offers protection from light rain.
  • Sleeveless style is perfect for layering over or under other garments.
  • Made from recycled materials, aligning with sustainability efforts.
  • Features practical elements like a standing collar and two side pockets.

Cons

  • May not be warm enough for extremely cold weather as a primary outer layer.
  • The water repellency may diminish over time with wear and washing.
  • As a gilet, it leaves arms exposed to the elements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

This gilet requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility

The Regatta Professional Insulated Gilet is designed for adult males and is ideal for layering. It pairs well with long-sleeved shirts, fleeces, or base layers. Its universal design makes it compatible with most outdoor trousers and footwear.

Care Instructions

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the water-repellent properties.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to air dry. Do not dry clean.
  • Ironing: Iron on a low setting if necessary. Avoid direct heat on any printed logos.
  • Re-Waterproofing: For best results, re-apply a water-repellent finish periodically, following the product's instructions.
