Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Hurden Padded Jacket is designed for women seeking a lightweight, water-repellent outer layer. Its key benefit is providing warmth and protection from the elements with a stylish, high-shine finish. A potential consideration is that while water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof. Key features include a durable micro-ripstop fabric, a grown-on hood, and recycled materials for sustainability.

FAQs
What type of weather is this jacket best suited for?
The Regatta Hurden Padded Jacket is best suited for mild to cool weather and light rain or drizzle due to its water-repellent finish and lightweight insulation.
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket has a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can repel light rain but is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, wash separately, and tumble dry on a low heat. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing.
What does 'Micro Ripstop' mean?
Micro Ripstop is a lightweight yet strong fabric construction that uses a special reinforcing technique to prevent tears from spreading. This makes the fabric more durable.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold temperatures?
The jacket provides lightweight insulation (140gsm). For extremely cold conditions, it would be best worn as a mid-layer over warmer clothing.
What are the sustainability features of this jacket?
The jacket is made from recycled materials and is cruelty-free and feather-free, aligning with sustainable practices.
Does the hood offer adjustable features?
The jacket features a 'grown-on hood,' which is integrated into the design. It does not typically have external adjustment toggles unless specified in a particular product variant.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is not repelling water effectively anymore.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor clothing, following the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-application.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently try to move the zipper. If it's caught on fabric, carefully pull the fabric away. You can lubricate the zipper teeth with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Filling appears to be clumping after washing.
Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dried in a tumble dryer on a low heat setting, ideally with tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute the filling evenly.
