Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Clumber women's hybrid jacket is designed for adult women seeking a versatile layer for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is providing balanced warmth and flexibility, with a caveat of being best suited for light weather conditions due to its water-repellent finish rather than full waterproofing. This jacket features Warmloft insulation for comfort and Extol Stretch panels for enhanced movement, making it ideal for packing and layering on adventures.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The Clumber jacket has a water-repellent finish, which means it can handle light rain or showers. For heavy or prolonged rainfall, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for women's jackets. It's recommended to measure your chest, waist, and hip circumference. The provided size is UK 8.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

The jacket provides warmth through its Warmloft insulation, making it suitable for cool to mild conditions. For very cold weather, it is best worn as part of a layering system with warmer mid-layers or an insulated outer jacket.

What are the benefits of Extol Stretch panels?

Extol Stretch panels are made from a flexible material that allows for greater freedom of movement. This is particularly beneficial during physical activities where you need to reach, bend, or stretch.

How often should I re-apply the water-repellent treatment?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's generally recommended to re-apply after washing, or when you notice water is no longer beading effectively on the fabric surface. Always follow the instructions of the re-proofing product.

What material is the jacket made from?

The main body of the jacket is made from polyester, with stretch panels. The specific material composition for the stretch panels can be found on the product's care label.

Troubleshooting

Jacket not as warm as expected.

Ensure the jacket is layered correctly over a base layer for optimal insulation. Check that the Warmloft insulation is not compressed.

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent finish may need refreshing. Consider using a suitable re-proofer spray designed for outdoor clothing after washing, following product instructions.

Stretch panels feel restrictive.

Ensure the jacket is the correct size. If it's too tight, the stretch panels may feel strained. Check the fit and consider if a different size would be more comfortable for your range of motion.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: Designed as a women's adult garment, it pairs well with base layers, mid-layers, and waterproof outer shells. It is suitable for a range of outdoor activities and casual wear.

Care: To maintain the jacket's performance and appearance:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Do not bleach.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat.
  3. Repellency: For best results and to maintain the water-repellent finish, consider using a re-proofer spray after washing, following the product's instructions.
