Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Kybre jacket, proper maintenance is essential.
Setup:
When putting on the jacket, ensure the main front zip is fully closed to engage the protective storm flap. Use the hood's shockcord to tighten the perimeter before heading out into high winds.
Compatibility:
This jacket works best when paired with synthetic base layers or thin wool mid-layers. Avoid bulky cotton sweaters underneath, as these can trap moisture.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent.
- Avoid fabric softeners as they degrade the waterproof coating.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting to help reactivate the DWR finish, or air dry if possible.
- Re-apply a DWR spray treatment annually if you notice water no longer beads off the surface.
