FAQs

Is the Regatta Rurietta Bodywarmer waterproof?

No, it features a water-repellent finish, which means it will shed light rain and splashes. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy or prolonged downpours.

What is Warmloft padding?

Warmloft is a synthetic, down-touch insulation developed by Regatta. It provides excellent warmth, is lightweight, and retains insulating properties even when damp, unlike natural down.

Can I wear this bodywarmer in winter?

The bodywarmer provides lightweight warmth suitable for cooler days in autumn and spring. For full winter conditions or extremely cold temperatures, it's best used as a mid-layer under a more substantial winter coat.

How do I clean my bodywarmer?

Always refer to the care label inside your garment for precise instructions. Generally, it can be machine washed cold on a gentle cycle, avoiding fabric softeners, and tumble dried on low heat with dryer balls to restore loft.

Does it have an inside pocket?

The product description specifies 'zipped lower pockets.' There is no mention of an inside pocket, so assume it does not have one unless explicitly stated on the garment's label.

How do I adjust the waist for a better fit?

The bodywarmer features an adjustable shockcord waist. Locate the toggles usually found inside the pockets or along the hemline. Pull the shockcord through the toggles to tighten and release to loosen, customizing the fit around your waist.

Troubleshooting

Bodywarmer feels too snug or too loose.

Utilize the adjustable shockcord waist to customize the fit. If the overall size is still uncomfortable, consider checking the sizing chart to ensure you have the correct size for your measurements.

Water beads up less effectively than when new.

The water-repellent finish can diminish over time with wear and washing. After washing, apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor gear to reactivate the repellency. Ensure the garment is clean before application.

Zippers feel stiff or are difficult to move.

Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone spray or a graphite pencil) to the teeth and gently work the zipper back and forth.

Insulation appears flat or clumpy after washing.

This can happen if the insulation settles. Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. The balls will help to agitate and fluff the Warmloft padding, restoring its loft and warmth.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the bodywarmer's warmth and water-repellency. Always check the garment's care label for specific instructions, but general guidelines for polyester-filled bodywarmers include:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent; avoid fabric softeners as they can impair water-repellency and insulation.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls (or similar) to help fluff up the insulation, or air dry flat away from direct heat. Ensure it is completely dry before storing.
  4. Bleaching/Ironing: Do not bleach or iron. The polyester material and insulation can be damaged by high heat.
  5. Re-treatment: Over time, the water-repellent finish may diminish. You can restore it using a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in product designed for outerwear, following the product's instructions.
