Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Upon receiving your Regatta Nurie Quilted Jacket, simply remove it from its packaging. It is ready to wear immediately. Consider an initial gentle wash according to care instructions to remove any manufacturing residue, though this is not strictly necessary.
Compatibility
This jacket is designed for versatility. Its medium weight and taffeta lining make it easy to layer over various garments, from lightweight tops to thicker sweaters. It pairs well with casual attire like jeans, trousers, or skirts, making it suitable for a wide range of casual outings and daily errands.
Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the jacket's performance and appearance.
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing to prevent snagging.
- Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the water-repellent finish and insulation.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls (if available) to help fluff the insulation. Do not iron. Air drying is also an option but may take longer.
- Water Repellency: The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may need periodic re-application over time, especially after several washes. Use a DWR-restoring product specifically designed for outerwear to maintain its water-shedding properties.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a clean, dry place. Avoid compressing it for extended periods to maintain the loft of the insulation.
