FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, the Regatta Marizion Padded Jacket features a water-repellent finish designed to keep light rainfall at bay. It is not fully waterproof and is not recommended for heavy or prolonged rain.
What is 'feather-free insulation' made of?
Feather-free insulation typically refers to synthetic down alternatives, often made from polyester fibers. These materials are designed to mimic the warmth and loft of natural down while being hypoallergenic and maintaining insulating properties even when damp.
Can I wear this jacket for intense outdoor activities?
While suitable for general outdoor activities and walks, this jacket is designed for casual wear and light to moderate conditions. For high-intensity sports or very strenuous activities, you might consider specialized athletic wear for better breathability and moisture management.
How do I ensure the jacket remains water-repellent?
Regular washing with a technical cleaner designed for waterproof/water-repellent fabrics and periodic re-treatment with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in product will help maintain the jacket's water-repellent properties.
Does the fixed hood offer good coverage?
Yes, the fixed hood is designed to offer ample coverage for your head and neck, providing protection against wind and light precipitation for added comfort during your outings.
Is the jacket bulky for travel?
While padded for warmth, the Regatta Marizion Padded Jacket is not excessively bulky for a winter-ready item. Its synthetic insulation allows for some compressibility, making it manageable for packing in luggage, though it won't pack down as small as ultra-light compressible down jackets.
Troubleshooting
Water-repellency seems to be fading.
The water-repellent finish is not permanent and can diminish with wear and washing. Restore its performance by washing the jacket with a technical cleaner and then applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment specifically designed for outerwear. Ensure the jacket is completely clean and dry before applying.
Jacket feels less warm or insulation seems flattened.
Synthetic insulation can sometimes compress over time or after washing. To revive the loft and warmth, wash the jacket according to care instructions and then tumble dry on a low heat setting with two or three clean tennis balls. The tennis balls will help agitate and fluff the insulation during the drying cycle.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (available at outdoor or craft stores) or even a graphite pencil to the zipper teeth to help it glide more smoothly. Regularly clean any dirt or debris from the zipper track.

Care Instructions
To ensure the longevity and performance of your Regatta Marizion Padded Jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Check the Label: Always refer to the specific care instructions on the garment's internal label.
- Washing: Generally, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as it can impair the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help fluff up the synthetic insulation. Alternatively, lay flat or hang to air dry completely. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Bleaching/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as high heat can damage the synthetic material and water-repellent coating.
- Re-proofing: Over time, the water-repellent finish may diminish. You can restore it by applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or wash-in treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel, following the product's instructions.
