The Regatta Gilet Professional is designed for men seeking a lightweight, versatile layering piece. Its key benefit is providing wind resistance and a durable water-repellent finish, making it suitable for various outdoor activities. A potential caveat is that its lightweight nature may not offer sufficient insulation in very cold conditions. This gilet features Softshell Stretch Light fabric for comfort and freedom of movement, a super soft handle, and quick-drying properties.

The Regatta Gilet Professional is designed as a lightweight, wind-resistant, and water-repellent layering piece for men, suitable for mild to cool weather conditions and outdoor activities.
Refer to the Regatta Professional Mens sizing guide. Measure your chest circumference (XL is approximately 43-44 inches) and select the size that matches your measurement.
The gilet has a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light rain or drizzle. It is not designed for heavy or prolonged downpours.
As a lightweight gilet, it provides some warmth and wind protection but is best suited as a mid-layer or outer layer in milder temperatures. For colder winter conditions, it would need to be combined with warmer insulating layers.
Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and do not iron or dry clean. Always check the care label for specific instructions.
It is made from 100% polyester, utilizing Lightweight jersey backed Softshell fabric with Softshell Stretch Light technology.
Yes, it features two zipped lower pockets for secure storage of small items.
Gently try to work the zip back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zip teeth. Avoid using oily products that could stain the fabric.
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may need refreshing. Wash the gilet according to care instructions, then tumble dry on a low heat for a short period to reactivate the existing DWR. For a stronger refresh, consider applying a specialized DWR spray after washing and drying.
Ensure all zips are fully closed. Check for any potential damage to the fabric that might allow wind penetration.
As the item is quick-drying and lightweight, wrinkles typically fall out with wear. If needed, a brief tumble dry on a low heat setting can help remove creases. Avoid direct ironing.
Setup: This gilet requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of packaging. Ensure you have selected the correct size. Regatta Professional Mens sizing is based on chest measurements (XL: 43-44 inches). Compare your chest measurement to the provided guide to confirm fit.
Compatibility: The gilet is designed as a versatile layering piece and is compatible with most outdoor and casual wear. It can be worn over t-shirts, polos, fleeces, or sweaters.
Care Instructions:
Always follow the care label instructions to maintain the fabric's performance and water-repellent properties.
