FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The Regatta Starler Padded Jacket has a water-repellent finish, meaning it will shed light rain and snow. However, it is not fully waterproof and is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain. For heavy downpours, a fully waterproof shell jacket would be more appropriate.
What kind of insulation does the jacket use?
This jacket features ultra-warm and super soft Atomlight insulation, designed to provide excellent thermal retention.
How should I clean my jacket?
Always check the care label inside your jacket for specific instructions. Generally, it's recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent and tumble dry on low with tennis balls to help fluff the insulation. Do not bleach or iron.
Does this jacket have pockets?
> Info needed: specific pocket details. While many jackets include pockets, the product description does not specify. We recommend checking the product imagery or detailed specifications on the retailer's website.
Is the hood removable?
> Info needed: removable hood feature. The product description states 'Pull on the hood for added protection,' implying it's an integrated hood, but does not specify if it's detachable. Please refer to product imagery or detailed specifications.
What material is the jacket made from?
The Regatta Starler Padded Jacket is made from polyester, known for its durability and resistance to wrinkles and shrinking.
Is this jacket true to size?
This jacket is designed for adult women and is offered in standard UK dress sizes. We recommend checking the Regatta size guide or customer reviews for specific fit advice, as individual preferences may vary.
Troubleshooting
Jacket doesn't seem as warm as expected.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate layers underneath for the temperature. Check if the jacket's insulation has become compressed, which can happen after washing; tumble drying with tennis balls (as per care instructions) can help restore loft. If none of these solutions work, ensure the product care instructions have been followed correctly.
Water repellency seems to be reduced.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time or with repeated washes. Try washing the jacket with a DWR-restoring wash-in product or applying a DWR spray designed for outerwear. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-applying DWR treatment for best results.
Zipper snags or is difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth and gently pull it free. You can also try applying a small amount of zipper lubricant (like zipper wax or a graphite pencil) to the teeth to improve smoothness. Ensure the jacket is laid flat when zipping to prevent tension.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

**Care Instructions:
**Proper care will prolong the life and performance of your jacket. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions. Generally, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the water-repellent finish and insulation.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to help fluff up the insulation, or air dry flat. Do not iron, as high heat can melt the polyester material or damage the DWR coating.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated area. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
- Maintaining Water Repellency: Over time, the water-repellent finish may diminish. You can restore it using a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in product specifically designed for outerwear. Follow the product's instructions carefully.
