Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Andreson Hybrid women's bodywarmer is designed for active adults seeking lightweight, durable outerwear for on-the-go wear. Its key benefit is providing core warmth and mobility without bulk, thanks to its water-repellent finish and stretch panels. A potential caveat is that it offers core warmth, and may require layering for colder conditions.

FAQs

What type of weather is this gilet best suited for?

The gilet is best suited for mild to cool weather conditions. Its water-repellent finish and Warmloft insulation provide core warmth and protection against light rain and wind. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer it over warmer garments.

Can I wear this gilet for high-intensity activities?

Yes, the Extol Stretch panels are designed to enhance agility and freedom of movement, making it suitable for activities like hiking, climbing, or cycling. The lightweight design also prevents overheating during exertion.

How do I determine my correct size?

Please refer to the sizing guide provided by Regatta for accurate measurements. The product information indicates this specific item is a UK size 14.

Is the gilet machine washable?

Yes, the gilet can be machine washed at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners.

How should I dry the gilet after washing?

It is recommended to tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang it to dry. Avoid direct heat or ironing.

What does 'Warmloft down-touch insulation' mean?

Warmloft insulation is a synthetic alternative to down that mimics the warmth and compressibility of natural down feathers. It provides excellent warmth even when damp and is easier to care for.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are zipped for security, but the gilet's primary feature is a water-repellent finish on the main fabric, not fully waterproof construction. Therefore, while they offer some protection, it's best to keep sensitive items away from prolonged exposure to moisture.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Gently pull the zipper while applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the teeth. Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper.

Water-repellent finish seems less effective

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off over time. Consider applying a specialized re-proofer spray suitable for outdoor clothing, following the product's instructions.

Insulation feels flat after washing

After washing, tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. This helps to re-distribute and re-fluff the insulation.
