FAQs
Is the Regatta Starler Insulated Padded Jacket fully waterproof?
No, the jacket features a water-repellent finish, which is designed to shed light rain and drizzle. It is not fully waterproof and is not intended for heavy or prolonged downpours.
What type of insulation is used in this jacket?
The jacket uses `Atomlight` insulation, which is an ultra-warm and super soft padding designed for superior heat retention.
How should I wash my Regatta Starler jacket?
Always refer to the care label inside your jacket for specific instructions. Generally, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls or air dry flat.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold or extreme winter conditions?
The jacket provides excellent warmth with its `Atomlight` insulation and long length, making it suitable for cold seasonal weather. For extreme sub-zero temperatures or prolonged exposure to severe cold, additional layering beneath the jacket is recommended for optimal comfort.

Troubleshooting
Jacket appears less water repellent than before.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time and with washing. Ensure you are washing according to care instructions (avoiding fabric softener). You can restore water repellency by applying a DWR re-treatment spray or wash-in product designed for outerwear, following the product's specific instructions.
Jacket insulation feels flat or less warm after washing.
The `Atomlight` insulation may clump during washing. When tumble drying on a low heat setting, add two or three clean tennis balls or dryer balls to the dryer. These will help to fluff up and redistribute the insulation evenly, restoring its loft and warmth.
Jacket has an unpleasant odor after prolonged wear.
Wash the jacket according to the care instructions, typically machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Ensure the jacket is thoroughly dry before storing to prevent mildew.

Washing: Always check the care label inside the jacket. Generally, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent designed for technical outerwear if possible, or a non-bio detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can impair the water-repellent finish.2. Drying: Do not tumble dry on high heat. Tumble dry on a low setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help redistribute the `Atomlight` insulation and restore its loft. Alternatively, lay flat to air dry. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.3. Bleaching & Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as high heat can damage the synthetic material and insulation.4. Water Repellency Restoration: Over time and washes, the water-repellent finish may diminish. You can restore it by applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray or a wash-in treatment specifically designed for outerwear. Follow the instructions on the DWR product.
