Product Information
Full details
This Regatta jacket is designed for adult males seeking lightweight warmth and weather resistance for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing excellent insulation without bulk, thanks to its synthetic down-touch filling and DWR finish. A potential caveat is that while it offers some water resistance, it is not a fully waterproof garment. Key features include a hooded design, full zip fastening, stretch binding on cuffs and hem, and two lower zip pockets.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can withstand light rain and snow. It is not fully waterproof and is best suited for moderate weather conditions or as a layer under a waterproof shell in heavy rain.
What is 'Synthetic Down Touch' filling?
This refers to synthetic fibers engineered to mimic the softness, loft, and insulating properties of natural down. It provides warmth without the bulk and retains insulating ability even when damp.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash the jacket inside out with a mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Tumble dry on a low heat setting and remove promptly.
Can I use fabric softener when washing?
No, it is recommended not to use fabric softener as it can negatively impact the fabric's performance and the DWR coating.
What does '20D' mean?
20D refers to the denier of the fabric, which is a unit of measurement for fiber thickness. A lower denier, like 20D, indicates a finer, lighter thread, contributing to the jacket's lightweight nature.
How should I store the jacket?
Store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing it for long periods to maintain the loft of the synthetic insulation.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold temperatures?
While it provides good insulation for its weight, it is designed more for mild to cool conditions or as a mid-layer. For extreme cold, additional layering or a heavier-duty jacket might be necessary.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses water repellency
Wash the jacket according to care instructions and tumble dry on a low setting. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment to restore water-repellent properties.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper. If it is still stiff, apply a small amount of wax or graphite lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Pilling or snagging on the fabric
Avoid rough surfaces that could catch the fabric. If minor pilling occurs, it can sometimes be removed with a fabric shaver. Check care label for specific washing advice to prevent this.
