FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Regatta Andreson Hybrid Jacket features a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can repel light rain and snow. However, it is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy or prolonged rainfall. For such conditions, a dedicated waterproof jacket is recommended.
What type of insulation does it use?
It uses Warmloft insulation, a synthetic alternative to down that provides excellent warmth while retaining insulating properties even when damp. It is also designed to pack down easily.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash the jacket at 30°C on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Avoid ironing.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
The jacket provides good warmth for its weight and is wind-resistant. For very cold weather, it is best used as part of a layering system, combined with a warm base layer and potentially a fleece mid-layer underneath.
What does 'hybrid' mean in the product name?
The 'hybrid' likely refers to the combination of different materials or construction techniques. In this case, it typically means it uses insulated panels (like the Warmloft) combined with lighter, more breathable or flexible panels, often in the sleeves or sides, to balance warmth and mobility.
What sizes and colours are available?
This specific product listing is for the Navy Blue XXXXXL size. The Regatta Andreson Hybrid Jacket is available in a range of sizes and colours, which may include options like Green, Black, and Grey, in various sizes from S to XXXXL or larger.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the Warmloft insulation is not compressed and that no additional layers are needed for the current temperature. Check that zippers and hood are properly secured to prevent heat loss.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The jacket has a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, not full waterproofing. For heavy rain, an additional waterproof outer layer is recommended. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment to the jacket if the beading effect has diminished.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it is snagged on fabric, carefully free the material. For stiffness, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) applied to the teeth can help lubricate it.
