Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Andreson Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a lightweight and practical outerwear option for outdoor adventures. Its key benefit lies in providing warmth without bulk, thanks to Warmloft insulation, while enhancing freedom of movement with Extol Stretch panels. A potential caveat is its water-repellent finish, which is suitable for light showers but not heavy rain. This hybrid jacket features a water-repellent finish, a hood for added coverage, stretch binding for comfort, and zipped pockets for secure storage.

FAQs
What is Warmloft insulation?
Warmloft is a synthetic insulation technology that mimics the properties of down, providing excellent warmth without the bulk and maintaining insulating performance even when damp.
How do I know if this jacket is right for me?
This jacket is ideal for mild weather conditions, providing warmth and flexibility for activities like walking, hiking, or everyday use. If you require full waterproofing or extreme cold protection, other options may be more suitable.
Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?
The jacket features a water-repellent finish, which is effective against light showers. It is not designed to be fully waterproof and may not keep you dry in prolonged or heavy rain.
How do I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash the jacket inside out with similar colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry.
What does 'Extol Stretch' mean?
Extol Stretch refers to the use of elasticated panels in the jacket's construction, typically on the sides or underarms, which allow for greater freedom of movement and flexibility.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is primarily made of Nylon, with stretch panels designed to enhance movement and comfort.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
This jacket provides warmth without bulk, making it suitable for cool conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer over thermal base layers, or a more heavily insulated jacket might be needed.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure all layers underneath are dry and not overly compressing the insulation. Check if the jacket has been washed with fabric softener, which can reduce insulation effectiveness. Consider adding a warmer mid-layer for colder conditions.
Water is soaking through the fabric during rain.
The jacket has a water-repellent finish, not a fully waterproof coating. For heavy rain, a dedicated waterproof jacket is recommended. Consider re-applying a water-repellent treatment to the jacket's exterior if the original finish has degraded.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to use.
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.
Stretch panels feel restrictive.
Ensure you have the correct size. The stretch panels are designed for mobility; if they feel tight, the jacket may be too small. Check that the jacket is not being worn over excessively thick mid-layers that might restrict the stretch function.
