Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Marizion Quilted Gilet is an ideal outer layer for active women who need reliable core warmth without the restrictive bulk of a full jacket. Designed for versatility, this piece features high-quality down-free insulation and a water-repellent finish, making it perfect for brisk walks, hiking, or layering during transitional weather. While it provides excellent protection against light rain and chilly winds, please note that it is not designed for heavy, sustained downpours.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it handles light rain and moisture well, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy storm conditions.
Does it have internal pockets?
The design focuses on a streamlined fit; check the specific product tag, though most variations feature standard side-entry hand pockets.
What is the benefit of the down-free fill?
The down-free fill is synthetic, which means it retains warmth even when damp, is hypoallergenic, and easier to clean than natural down.
Can I wear this under a winter coat?
Yes, its low-bulk profile makes it an excellent choice for layering underneath a shell or heavier parka for added core warmth.
How should I choose the right size?
Refer to the brand's standard size guide, keeping in mind that the gilet is designed to be worn over light clothing.
Is it machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle, but always check the care label on your specific garment.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through instead of beading.
The water-repellent finish may be wearing off. Wash the item and apply a technical fabric reproofing spray to restore performance.
Insulation appears clumpy after washing.
Shake the gilet vigorously after drying and hang it for 24 hours to redistribute the synthetic fibers evenly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your gilet in peak condition, machine wash it on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can strip the water-repellent coating from the outer fabric. For best results, hang dry the garment in a well-ventilated area. Because it is a sleeveless design, it is highly compatible with a wide range of wardrobe staples, including fleece jackets, flannel shirts, and lightweight sweaters. When storing, try to avoid compressing it under heavy items to maintain the loft of the synthetic insulation.
