FAQs

Is the Rurietta Bodywarmer waterproof?

No, the Regatta Rurietta Bodywarmer has a water-repellent finish, which means it will protect you from light rain and drizzles. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy or prolonged downpours.

What kind of insulation does it use?

It uses Warmloft padding, which is a lightweight, synthetic down-touch insulation designed to provide warmth effectively without adding significant bulk.

Can I wear this bodywarmer in winter?

The Rurietta Bodywarmer is suitable for cooler days and mild winter conditions as a layering piece. For colder winter weather, especially if exposed for extended periods, it is recommended to wear it over warmer base layers or under a heavier outer jacket.

How do I adjust the waist for a better fit?

The bodywarmer features an adjustable shockcord waist. Look for small elastic cords with toggles, typically located inside the lower hem or at the side seams. You can pull and secure these toggles to cinch the waist for a more flattering fit.

What are the washing instructions for this bodywarmer?

Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Do not use fabric softener, as it can affect the water-repellent finish. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry flat. Do not bleach or iron.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the bodywarmer features zipped lower pockets, which provide secure storage for your essentials like keys, phone, or wallet while you're on the go.

Troubleshooting

Water-repellent finish seems less effective.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish can wear off over time or with repeated washing. Reapply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel. Ensure the bodywarmer is clean before application.

Bodywarmer feels less warm than before.

The Warmloft padding might have compressed. Ensure you are not washing it too frequently with harsh detergents or drying it improperly. Tumble drying on low heat with a few tennis balls can help re-fluff the insulation.

Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper. For stiffness, you can try applying a small amount of zipper lubricant or graphite from a pencil along the teeth.

Bodywarmer has an odor after wear.

Follow the care instructions to machine wash the bodywarmer. If the odor persists, a specialized athletic wear detergent designed to eliminate odors might be helpful. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.

Care Instructions

  2. Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the water-repellent finish.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting, or air dry flat to maintain the padding's loft. Do not dry clean.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron.
  5. Bleaching: Do not bleach.
  6. Water-Repellency Restoration: Over time, the water-repellent finish may diminish. You can restore it using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment designed for technical outerwear, following the product's instructions.
