Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Clumber women's hybrid jacket is designed for adult females seeking a flexible and warm layer for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is the combination of Warmloft insulation for core warmth and Extol Stretch panels for unrestricted movement, perfect for a range of activities from brisk walks to hikes. A potential caveat is that its water-repellent finish is best suited for light rain, not heavy downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?
The Regatta Clumber jacket provides good warmth for its weight, but for extreme cold, it is best used as a mid-layer over a base layer and potentially under a heavier, insulated outer jacket.
How waterproof is the water-repellent finish?
The finish is designed to repel light rain and showers. It will not provide protection in heavy downpours or prolonged wet conditions. For such weather, an additional waterproof outer layer is recommended.
Can I wear a fleece jacket underneath?
Yes, the jacket is designed to be layered. A fleece or other insulating layer can be worn underneath for added warmth.
What does 'hybrid jacket' mean in this context?
It refers to the combination of insulated (quilted) panels for warmth and stretch fabric panels for flexibility and freedom of movement.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the brand's sizing chart for measurements. It is recommended to check your chest and waist measurements. If you plan to wear thick layers underneath, consider sizing up.
Is the blue colour true to the image?
Colours can vary slightly depending on screen settings and lighting conditions. However, the 'Blue' colour is generally a standard shade as depicted.
Troubleshooting
Jacket loses its loft/warmth.
Ensure the jacket is properly dried after washing, preferably in a tumble dryer on a low heat setting with tennis balls to help re-distribute the insulation.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to ensure smooth operation.
Water repellency seems reduced.
After washing, re-apply a water-repellent treatment suitable for synthetic fabrics, following the product's instructions. Ensure the jacket is clean before treatment.
