Full details

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Regatta Carlotte gilet?

The Regatta Carlotte gilet is designed to provide lightweight warmth and protection against light showers, making it ideal for layering during cooler weather.

How warm is the insulation?

It features 120gsm Warmloft down-touch insulation, which offers good warmth for its weight, suitable for transitional seasons or as a mid-layer.

Can I wear this in heavy rain?

No, the gilet has a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light drizzles but not heavy or prolonged rain. For heavy rain, a waterproof jacket is recommended.

What material is the gilet made from?

The outer shell is made from a lightweight 20d polyamide fabric (37gsm).

How do I wash the gilet?

Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Do not bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting.

Does it have internal pockets?

Yes, it features an internal security pocket for valuables, in addition to two lower zipped pockets.

Is this gilet suitable for very cold winter days?

While it provides good warmth for its weight, for extremely cold winter conditions, it is best used as a layer under a warmer, insulated outer jacket.

Troubleshooting

Gilet feels flat or has lost its loft

Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. The action of the balls helps to break up clumps and restore the loft of the Warmloft insulation.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to use

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the zipper up and down while holding the fabric taut. You can also try using a graphite pencil to rub along the teeth for lubrication.

Water-repellent finish seems less effective

The water-repellent finish can diminish over time with wear and washing. Consider using a specific technical fabric re-proofer spray (follow product instructions) to restore water repellency.
