The Regatta Astrel Padded Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable outer layer for wet and windy outdoor conditions. Its primary benefit is the combination of a high 15,000 mm hydrostatic head waterproof rating with synthetic down insulation, ensuring you stay both dry and warm during autumn and winter excursions. A notable caveat to consider is that while the jacket is highly weather-resistant, it is a synthetic-filled garment and may feel bulkier than specialized ultralight shells, so layering should be planned accordingly to maintain mobility.

The jacket uses premium synthetic down padding, which provides warmth even when wet.
It is a measure of how much water pressure the fabric can withstand before moisture penetrates; 15,000 mm is considered high performance for heavy rain.
It provides excellent warmth for general cold weather, but for sub-zero extreme conditions, it is best used as part of a layered clothing system.
The DWR finish may be wearing off; wash the jacket and apply a specialized waterproof re-proofer spray.
Wash the jacket to remove oils and dirt that mat the synthetic fibers, then tumble dry on low with clean tennis balls to restore loft.
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Astrel jacket, proper maintenance is essential. Always consult the care label inside the garment for specific temperature settings. To clean the jacket, use a gentle cycle with a specialized technical fabric cleaner to maintain the waterproof coating. Avoid using standard biological detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish. For drying, tumble dry on a low heat setting to help rejuvenate the insulation's loft. When storing, hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a dry, ventilated area rather than compressing it in a drawer to ensure the synthetic fibers remain effective over multiple seasons.
