FAQs
Is the Regatta Astrel jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it is designed with a 15,000 mm hydrostatic head, making it highly waterproof for most outdoor activities.
Can I wash this jacket in a standard washing machine?
Yes, but use a gentle cycle with cold water and a technical detergent to protect the heat-sealed seams.
Is the insulation real down or synthetic?
The jacket uses premium synthetic down, which is chosen for its ability to maintain warmth even when damp.
What does the heat-sealed baffle design do?
It bonds the fabric panels together without using stitches, which improves weather resistance and prevents insulation from migrating or leaking.
Is the jacket suitable for extreme cold?
It provides significant warmth for typical autumn and winter conditions, though layering underneath is recommended for extreme sub-zero temperatures.
Does the jacket include a hood?
The Astrel Quilted series prioritizes a sleek, structured collar; please check your specific model's neck design for hood details.
Troubleshooting
Water beading is no longer effective on the outer surface
The DWR coating may need refreshing. Use a specialized DWR re-proofer spray suitable for technical outdoor fabrics.
Outer fabric appears wrinkled or creased
Allow the jacket to hang freely for 24-48 hours. Avoid using a steam iron directly on the jacket, as high heat can damage the bonded panels.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for immediate use right out of the box. For layering, its structured fit works best over a mid-weight fleece or a technical base layer.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Use a technical garment wash suitable for waterproof gear. Avoid heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended. Avoid excessive heat or ironing, as this can potentially damage the heat-sealed bonds between panels.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain its shape and insulation loft.
