FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
No, the Regatta Hooded Marizion Padded Jacket features a water-repellent finish, meaning it will repel light rain and drizzle, but it is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy or prolonged downpours.
What does 'feather-free insulation' mean?
'Feather-free insulation' refers to a synthetic alternative to traditional down feathers. It's designed to provide similar warmth and loft while being an ethical choice and often maintaining insulation properties better when wet.
Can I machine wash this jacket?
Yes, typically this jacket can be machine washed. We recommend using a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent and closing all zippers. Always check the specific care label inside your jacket for precise instructions.
Is the hood detachable?
Based on the product description, the hood is integrated with the jacket ('Hooded Marizion Padded Jacket') and is not mentioned as detachable. Therefore, it is generally fixed.
What season is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is best suited for cooler temperatures, such as autumn, mild winter days, or chilly spring evenings. Its insulation and water-repellent properties make it ideal for damp, cold weather, but it might not be sufficient for extreme winter conditions.
How do I restore the water repellency if it wears off?
You can restore the jacket's water repellency by cleaning it and then applying a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) spray or wash-in treatment designed for outdoor apparel. Follow the instructions provided with the DWR product carefully.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels less warm than expected.
Ensure you are layering appropriately for the temperature. Check that the main zipper is fully closed and the stretch binding is snug around your wrists and waist to prevent cold air entry. The insulation may need fluffing after storage or washing; tumble dry on low with tennis balls.
Water no longer beads off the fabric.
The water-repellent finish (DWR) can wear off over time or with washing. Clean the jacket according to care instructions, then apply a DWR restoring spray or wash-in treatment designed for technical outerwear. This will help reactivate its water-shedding properties.
Zipper gets stuck or is difficult to operate.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. If the zipper is stiff, rub a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specific zipper lubricant along the teeth to help it glide smoothly. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can damage it.
Padded insulation appears clumpy or uneven.
This can happen after washing. Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls. The tennis balls will help to break up clumps of insulation and redistribute it evenly, restoring the jacket's loft and warmth.

- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colours. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing.
- Detergent: Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals.
