Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Marizion Gilet is designed for adult women seeking a lightweight, insulating layer for everyday use. Its primary benefit is providing warmth without bulk, making it ideal for transitional weather or as an extra layer during colder months. A potential consideration is its sleeveless design, which may not offer sufficient warmth as a primary outer layer in very low temperatures. This gilet features a DWR finish for water resistance, a faux-down, feather-free recycled filling for sustainable warmth, and a stylish quilted design.

FAQs

What is the filling made of?

The filling is Faux Down, which is feather-free and made from recycled materials. It is designed to be insulating and sustainable.

Is this gilet waterproof?

The gilet has a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, which provides resistance against light rain and moisture. It is not fully waterproof and should not be relied upon in heavy downpours.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

The gilet offers good insulation for its weight, making it suitable for cool to cold weather, especially when layered. However, as it is sleeveless, it may not provide sufficient warmth as a sole outer layer in extreme cold. Layering it with other warm garments is recommended.

How should I wash the gilet?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on a low heat setting, preferably with tennis balls to help restore the filling's loft.

What does 'cruelty-free' mean in this context?

It indicates that no animals were harmed in the creation of the gilet, particularly referring to the feather-free filling.

What are the pocket specifications?

The gilet features two side pockets, both equipped with zippers for secure closure.

What is the material of the gilet?

The outer material is 100% Polyamide (Nylon) with a 20D denier, and the filling is a recycled Faux Down.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or stuck.

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.

Filling appears to be clumping after washing.

Ensure the gilet is completely dry. Tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help break up clumps and restore loft.

Water repellency seems reduced.

The DWR finish can wear off over time. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment spray designed for outdoor apparel after washing and drying, following the product's instructions.

Seams are fraying.

For minor fraying, carefully trim loose threads with scissors. If the fraying is significant, professional repair may be needed.
