FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it is designed to shed light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof for heavy or sustained downpours.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is constructed from 100% polyester, chosen for its durability and performance with synthetic insulation.
Can I wear this in freezing temperatures?
Yes, the premium synthetic down is designed to provide effective thermal insulation in cold conditions.
Does the hood detach?
No, the jacket features a 'grown-on' hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the collar.
How do I secure the fit around my waist?
The jacket includes an adjustable elasticated cord at the hem that can be tightened to seal out cold air.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the outer fabric
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Re-apply a commercial water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment to restore performance.
Insulation appears clumpy or thin in certain areas
Gently shake the jacket to redistribute the synthetic down, or tumble dry on a very low heat setting with clean tennis balls to fluff the fill.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Aldthorn jacket, it is important to follow proper care protocols.
- Cleaning: Always check the internal wash care label first. Use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent designed for technical synthetic fabrics. Avoid heavy spin cycles which can cause the internal padding to clump.
- Drying: Air dry the jacket in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Water-Repellent Maintenance: Over time, the outer water-repellent finish may wear off. You can restore this using a standard spray-on or wash-in DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment specifically designed for polyester outdoor gear.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a dry closet to maintain its shape and insulation distribution.
