Regatta Cath Kidston Quilted Jacket - Floral - Cream - Size: 12

The jacket features a durable water repellent (DWR) finish, which is effective against light rain and showers. It is not designed for heavy downpours or prolonged exposure to wet conditions. For heavy rain, a waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.

Warmloft is a high-performance insulation technology that mimics the feel and performance of down. It traps warm air to keep you warm and comfortable, even in damp conditions, while remaining lightweight and breathable.

Refer to the sizing chart provided by the retailer. The product description indicates this is a women's jacket. Consider your measurements and how you prefer to layer clothing underneath when selecting a size.

While the jacket provides good warmth for its weight, it is best suited for cooler, rather than freezing, temperatures. For very cold or freezing conditions, it is recommended to layer it over warm base layers and mid-layers, or opt for a heavier insulated jacket.

Recycled polyester is made from post-consumer plastic waste, such as PET bottles. Using recycled materials helps to reduce reliance on virgin resources and lowers the environmental impact of the product.

The frequency depends on how often the jacket is used and washed. Generally, reapplying a DWR treatment every few washes, or when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface, is recommended to maintain its performance.

Ensure you are layering appropriately underneath. The jacket is designed for moderate cold; for extreme temperatures, additional layers are recommended.

The DWR finish can wear off over time. Consider using a re-waterproofing spray designed for outdoor apparel. Ensure the jacket is clean before applying any treatment.

Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls or clean tennis balls to help reduce wrinkles. Remove from the dryer promptly. For stubborn wrinkles, a cool iron might be used on the fabric, avoiding direct heat on any printed areas.

Ensure the fabric around the snaps is not bunched up. If they feel stiff initially, repeated use should loosen them. Avoid forcing the snaps, which could damage them.
