Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Rigain Quilted Jacket is designed for women seeking lightweight warmth and protection against chilly, unpredictable weather. Ideal for daily activities like woodland walks, errands, or coastal strolls, its key benefit is providing cozy insulation without bulk. A potential caveat is that while water-repellent, it is not fully waterproof, making it best suited for light rain or drizzle. Key features include down-touch synthetic insulation, a water-repellent finish, and a snug hood for added coverage.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The Rigain jacket has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light rain and drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in prolonged or heavy downpours.
What type of insulation does this jacket use?
The jacket uses a Feather-Free, premium synthetic down insulation, with a weight of 140gsm, designed to mimic the warmth of down without the bulk.
How do I wash the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid using bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting and remove promptly. Do not iron or dry clean.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket provides lightweight warmth and is suitable for chilly days. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer it over other thermal clothing for added insulation.
Does the hood adjust?
The hood is designed to be snug and does not have adjustable drawstrings, but the centre front zip extends to the peak of the hood for added protection.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket features two lower zipped pockets for general storage and one internal zipped pocket for securing valuables.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not providing enough warmth
Ensure the zip is fully closed, including to the peak of the hood. Check that the cuffs and hem elastic are snug. Consider layering with additional thermal clothing underneath.
Water repellency seems reduced
The water-repellent finish can diminish over time with wear and washing. Re-apply a suitable waterproofing spray designed for synthetic fabrics after washing and drying, following the product's instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to ease the zipper. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve smooth operation.
