Hooded Marizion Padded Jacket - Regatta - Brown

The jacket provides good insulation for cool to moderate temperatures. For extreme cold, it may be best used as a mid-layer under a heavier, more insulated, or waterproof outer shell.

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, typically available on their website or product retail pages. Ensure you measure your chest and waist circumference to find the best fit. The provided size is 'M'.

The jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain or drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and may not keep you dry in heavy or prolonged rainfall.

'Feather-free insulation' means the jacket uses synthetic materials to mimic the warmth and loft of down feathers, without using actual feathers. This is often chosen for ethical reasons and for performance when wet.

Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water is no longer beading up and rolling off the fabric. This typically depends on usage frequency and washing habits, but often after several washes or a season of regular use.

This specific product is described as 'Brown' and size 'M'. However, the Marizion range includes other colors such as Blue, Red, and Grey, and a wider range of sizes may be available for those variants.

Ensure the jacket is fully dry and has been tumble-dried on a low heat with dryer balls to re-loft the insulation. A re-proofer spray can also be applied after washing and drying if water repellency is also diminished.

The water-repellent finish can be reactivated by tumble drying on a low heat. If ineffective, consider applying a specific DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment designed for outerwear.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Dry thoroughly and then apply a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

For small holes or tears, use a fabric repair patch kit. For larger damage, professional repair may be necessary to maintain insulation and water resistance.
