FAQs

What is the primary function of this body warmer?

Its primary function is to provide core body warmth and insulation while allowing maximum freedom of movement for the arms. It's designed for layering in cool to moderate conditions.

Is this body warmer suitable for heavy rain?

The body warmer is showerproof and water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or drizzle. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a fully waterproof outer layer would be recommended.

What type of activities is this body warmer best suited for?

It is well-suited for outdoor work, hiking, cycling, gardening, and other activities where core warmth is desired without restricting arm movement, particularly in cool or damp weather.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the sizing guide provided by Regatta Professional. Generally, select the size you would typically wear in other upper body garments. The product information indicates this is a size Large (L).

Can this be worn as an outer layer in cold weather?

It can be worn as an outer layer in cool or windy conditions, but in very cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer over a warm base layer for optimal thermal performance.

What does 'Extol Stretch' mean?

Extol Stretch refers to the fabric's construction which incorporates elastane (stretch fibers) to provide excellent flexibility and ease of movement in all directions.

How can I care for the water-repellent finish?

To maintain the water repellency, avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners. After washing, you can reactivate the finish by tumble drying on a low heat setting (if care label permits) or by using a DWR re-proofer spray.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away. If it persists, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Reduced water repellency after washing

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have diminished. Wash the garment and then apply a DWR re-proofer spray according to the product's instructions, followed by a tumble dry on a low heat setting if the care label permits, to reactivate the finish.

Garment feels less warm than expected

Ensure the garment is layered appropriately over a base layer that wicks moisture. Excessive moisture trapped in the base layer can reduce the effectiveness of the insulation. Check that the main zip is fully closed and the hem is snug.

Pilling or fabric damage

Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim or items with velcro. Use a gentle cycle and consider washing inside out. Minor pilling can sometimes be removed with a fabric shaver.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment. Ensure you select the correct size for optimal comfort and performance. The full-length zip allows for easy donning and doffing.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) with a mild liquid detergent.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly.
  3. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Line dry in a warm air dryer. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach.
  4. Re-proofing: To maintain water-repellent properties, consider using a re-proofer spray after several washes.
