Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Astrel Quilted Jacket is an ideal choice for adult men seeking a reliable, high-performance outer layer for wet and windy outdoor conditions. Its primary benefit lies in the combination of premium synthetic down insulation for warmth and a robust 15,000mm hydrostatic head rating for superior weatherproofing. While it provides excellent protection in changeable environments, the bonded baffle construction prioritizes a sleek, technical aesthetic which may feel different from traditional stitched quilting patterns.

FAQs

Is the Regatta Astrel jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it is rated at 15,000mm hydrostatic head, which is highly waterproof and suitable for heavy rain.

Can I wear this in freezing temperatures?

The synthetic down provides excellent insulation for typical cold-weather conditions, though layering is recommended for extreme sub-zero temperatures.

What does the bonded baffle design do?

It removes stitching between panels, which prevents water from leaking through seams and reduces wind penetration.

Does the hood provide adjustment?

The jacket follows the standard design profile for the Astrel series; check the drawcord adjustments at the hem for a customized fit.

How should I choose the right size?

The Regatta Astrel is sized for an adult male fit. Use standard measurements for your chest and arm length to select between sizes S through XXXL.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR finish may have worn off; wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and apply a fresh waterproofing spray.

Insulation feels uneven after washing

Once dry, gently shake the jacket and manually redistribute the synthetic down to ensure even coverage.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of water resistance with a 15,000mm hydrostatic head
  • Heat-sealed baffles provide a smooth, modern aesthetic and improved wind protection
  • Synthetic down maintains warmth effectively in wet conditions
  • Durable polyester exterior is well-suited for active use

Cons

  • Bonded construction may not provide the same visual texture as traditional stitched quilting
  • Synthetic materials can be heavier than natural down options
  • Limited to specific sizing as per manufacturer specifications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Regatta Astrel jacket retains its waterproof integrity, follow these care instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Use a gentle, cold machine wash cycle with a technical detergent designed for waterproof garments.
  2. Avoid Softeners: Never use fabric softeners or harsh detergents, as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) finish from the fabric.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the synthetic down loft.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place on a wide-shouldered hanger to maintain the jacket's shape.
  5. Maintenance: If the water-repellency begins to fade, apply a spray-on re-proofer to the outer shell after cleaning.
