Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Hydi Quilted Gilet is a versatile, lightweight layering piece designed for active adult women who need reliable core warmth without the restriction of sleeves. Its synthetic fill and durable water-repellent coating make it an excellent choice for unpredictable weather during outdoor walks or commutes, though its lightweight nature means it is best suited as a mid-layer rather than a standalone jacket in extreme sub-zero conditions.

FAQs

Is the Regatta Hydi Gilet machine washable?

Yes, it is generally machine washable on a gentle cycle, but always check the care label inside the garment for specific temperature settings.

Does this gilet have an inside pocket?

The Hydi Gilet features two external side pockets for hand warmth and storage; it does not list an internal security pocket.

Can I wear this under a larger waterproof jacket?

Yes, its low-profile quilted design makes it an ideal mid-layer to wear underneath a larger shell or waterproof coat for extra warmth.

What is the material of the gilet?

The gilet is constructed from polyester, which provides a lightweight and durable finish.

Will the armholes be too tight?

The armholes feature stretch binding, which is designed to provide a secure fit without restricting natural arm movement.

Troubleshooting

Zip feels stuck or catches on fabric

Ensure the internal draft flap is tucked away from the teeth of the zipper and pull the zipper slider slowly to clear any obstructed fibers.

Water begins to soak into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR coating may be wearing off; wash the garment to remove dirt and consider applying a fabric-safe DWR spray treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This gilet is designed to fit true to size as a standard UK 16. For optimal performance, pair it with moisture-wicking base layers to manage perspiration. To care for your gilet, follow the garment's wash label closely. Typically, synthetic quilted items should be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR (water-repellent) coating. Always ensure the zipper is fully closed during the wash cycle to prevent snagging, and air dry whenever possible to maintain the loft of the synthetic insulation.
