Full details

Its key benefit is providing warmth and protection against the elements while maintaining a stylish appearance, making it ideal for daily commutes or city walks.

FAQs
Is the faux fur trim on the hood removable?
Yes, the faux fur trim on the hood is designed to be removable, allowing you to change the style of the parka.
What type of insulation does the Sabinka Parka use?
The parka uses 100% recycled Thermoguard insulation, which is a quick-drying synthetic fibre designed to trap air and provide warmth.
Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?
The jacket is made from waterproof Hydrafort fabric, suitable for moderate rain. For prolonged or very heavy downpours, additional waterproof gear might be advisable.
How should I wash the Regatta Sabinka Parka?
It is machine washable on a gentle cycle using a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and powder detergents. Tumble dry on low heat.
What is the 'Durable water-repellent finish'?
This is an additional treatment applied to the fabric that helps water bead up and roll off the surface, enhancing the jacket's ability to keep you dry.
Is the insulation made from sustainable materials?
Yes, the Thermoguard insulation used in the Sabinka Parka is made from 100% recycled materials.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer shedding water effectively
Wash the jacket using a technical wash and re-apply a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish. Ensure you follow the care instructions precisely, especially regarding the absence of fabric softener and the use of tumble drying to activate the DWR.
Faux fur trim is matted
Gently brush the faux fur with a soft brush or comb after washing and drying. If necessary, use a hairdryer on a cool setting from a distance to help restore its fluffiness.
Zipper is stiff or sticking
Clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite (from a pencil) to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.
