FAQs

Is the Regatta Rurietta Bodywarmer fully waterproof?

No, it features a water-repellent finish, which means it will shed light rain and moisture. It is not designed to be fully waterproof in heavy downpours.

What is Warmloft padding?

Warmloft is Regatta's synthetic insulation that mimics the soft feel and warmth of down. It provides excellent warmth without the bulk, and retains its insulating properties even when damp.

Can I wear this bodywarmer in winter?

It is ideal for cooler days and can be worn in winter as a layering piece under a heavier jacket for added warmth. However, it is not sufficient as a standalone outer layer in very cold or snowy conditions.

How do I ensure the adjustable waist stays cinched?

The adjustable waist uses a shockcord system. To secure it, pull the cords to your desired tightness and then use the cord locks to hold them in place. This allows for a customizable and secure fit.

What material is the bodywarmer made from?

The Regatta Rurietta Bodywarmer is made from 100% Polyester for both its outer shell and lining, with synthetic Warmloft insulation.

Does it have internal pockets?

The product description specifies 'zipped lower pockets.' There is no mention of internal pockets, so it likely only has the external zipped pockets for storage.

Troubleshooting

Bodywarmer feels less warm over time.

Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions. Incorrect washing or drying can affect the Warmloft insulation's loft. Gentle machine wash and air drying can help maintain its insulating properties.

Water repellency seems to have diminished.

The water-repellent finish can wear off over time or with improper washing. Try re-treating the fabric with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for outdoor clothing after cleaning and drying.

Zipper is stiff or gets stuck.

Gently rub a graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant along the zipper teeth. Ensure the fabric lining isn't catching in the zipper as you open or close it.

Bodywarmer has an odor after wear.

Wash the bodywarmer according to care instructions. For stubborn odors, consider using a sports detergent designed to remove odors from synthetic fabrics. Ensure it's thoroughly dry before storage.

It is highly compatible with various wardrobe items, serving as an excellent layering piece over sweaters, long-sleeved shirts, or under a waterproof jacket for extra insulation.

  1. Machine wash cold with similar colors.
