FAQs
Is the Regatta Rigain jacket waterproof?
The jacket features a water-repellent finish, which is ideal for light showers, but it is not fully waterproof and should not be used in heavy rain.
Can I wear this jacket in freezing temperatures?
It provides good insulation, but it is designed for mild to moderate cold. For extreme freezing conditions, consider layering it under a heavier shell.
Is the insulation real down?
No, the jacket uses high-quality feather-free, synthetic insulation which is more breathable and easier to maintain.
How do I wash this jacket?
Use a machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild soap. Ensure all zips are closed before washing.
Does the jacket pack into its own pocket?
While it is lightweight and packable, it does not have a dedicated 'stuff sack' pocket design; it can be folded down compactly into a bag.
Troubleshooting
Water begins soaking into the fabric rather than beading off
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Zip feels stiff or sticks during operation
Check for fabric obstructions or debris in the zipper track. Use a silicone-based zipper lubricant if the stiffness persists.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Rigain Padded Jacket, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the water-repellent coating.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting to help re-loft the synthetic insulation.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing it compressed for extended periods to maintain the integrity of the padding.
- Maintenance: If the water-repellent performance fades, apply a specialist DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray after washing to restore the outer shell's ability to shed water.
