FAQs
Is the Regatta Carlotte jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket features a durable water-repellent finish, which means it can withstand light rain and splashes, but it is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy downpours.
What type of insulation does the Carlotte jacket use?
It uses synthetic Warmloft down-touch insulation, which provides lightweight warmth similar to down but is more durable and performs better when damp.
How should I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket at 30°C with a mild liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting to help restore loft.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket is designed for lightweight warmth. For very cold weather, it is best worn as part of a layering system with a warmer mid-layer, such as a fleece or insulated jacket.
What are the pocket features?
The jacket has two lower zipped pockets for your hands or small items, and an internal security pocket for safely storing valuables.
What material is the jacket made from?
The outer shell is made from lightweight 20D polyamide fabric.
Is this jacket suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, it is ideal for everyday wear, including school runs, walks, and general outdoor activities where lightweight warmth and a degree of water resistance are beneficial.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not providing enough warmth.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. For colder conditions, consider layering a fleece or thicker sweater underneath. The insulation is designed for moderate warmth.
Water-repellent finish seems to be less effective.
The water-repellent finish can degrade over time. Re-apply a suitable DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment designed for outdoor clothing to restore its performance. Follow the product instructions for application.
Jacket feels stiff after washing.
Ensure the jacket is properly tumble dried on a low heat setting, as this can help to restore loft to the insulation. Avoid ironing, which can flatten the insulation.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. If necessary, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
