Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Marizion Quilted Gilet is a versatile, lightweight layering piece designed for active individuals who need warmth without the bulk of a heavy jacket. Ideal for outdoor enthusiasts and urban commuters alike, it provides excellent thermal regulation through its recycled synthetic insulation and protection against light rain. While it is perfect for transitional weather, the garment is not designed for heavy, prolonged rainfall, so an additional waterproof shell may be necessary for harsher conditions.

FAQs
Is this gilet machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle. Always check the internal garment label for specific temperature settings.
Does it have a hood?
No, the Marizion gilet is a non-hooded design.
Is the insulation real down?
No, it uses high-quality 100% recycled synthetic down which is hypoallergenic and performs better in damp conditions.
Can I wear this under a waterproof jacket?
Yes, its lightweight design makes it an ideal mid-layer for use under thicker waterproof outer layers.
How should I store the gilet?
Store it in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it tightly for long periods to maintain the loft of the insulation.
Does the hem have a drawstring?
No, it features a comfortable stretch-bound hem for a secure, fitted feel.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency seems to be fading
The protective finish can wear off over time. Use a technical DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to re-activate the outer layer.
Zippers feeling stiff
Check for fabric caught in the teeth or debris; gently clean with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the water-repellent finish, wash the gilet on a gentle cycle with cold water and avoid heavy detergents. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to prevent damage to the synthetic fill. Because of its slim profile, the gilet is highly compatible with shell jackets and fleece mid-layers. Ensure you choose your standard UK dress size to achieve the best fit for layering.
