FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The Regatta Hurden jacket features a water-repellent coating, which is effective against light rain and showers. For heavy downpours or prolonged wet conditions, a fully waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
How do I clean the synthetic down insulation?
The jacket can be machine washed cold on a gentle cycle. To restore the loft of the synthetic down after washing, tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls.
What is the main difference between this and a waterproof jacket?
A water-repellent jacket repels water droplets, causing them to bead and roll off, providing protection against light moisture. A waterproof jacket is constructed with a membrane that prevents water from penetrating, offering protection in heavier rain.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold winter weather?
The jacket provides medium-weight synthetic down insulation, making it suitable for cool to cold weather. For extreme cold, layering with additional insulating garments underneath would be recommended.
How often should I reapply the water-repellent treatment?
The frequency depends on usage and washing. Typically, reapplying a DWR treatment annually or when you notice water is no longer beading effectively will maintain its performance.
What does 'Feather Free' mean?
'Feather Free' indicates that the jacket uses premium synthetic down insulation instead of natural feathers, making it a suitable option for those who prefer animal-free materials or have feather allergies.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure the synthetic down insulation is evenly distributed. If recently washed, tumble dry on low with tennis balls to help re-loft the fill. Check if the water-repellent coating needs reapplication.
Water is soaking through the fabric.
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment following the product's instructions. Note that this jacket is water-repellent, not fully waterproof.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild soap. Once dry, lubricate with a graphite pencil tip or a silicone-based lubricant designed for zippers.
