Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Dalent Padded Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a blend of warmth, style, and practicality for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is lightweight synthetic down insulation offering excellent warmth without bulk, while a durable water-repellent finish provides protection against light rain. A potential consideration is its focus on repelling light rain, meaning it may not be sufficient for heavy downpours. Key features include synthetic down insulation, a DWR finish, anti-bacterial odour treatment, stretch binding, and zipped pockets.

FAQs
What type of insulation does the Dalent jacket use?
The Dalent jacket uses synthetic down insulation, which provides lightweight warmth and performs well even when damp.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket features a Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish that is effective against light rain and showers. It is not designed as a fully waterproof jacket for heavy downpours.
How should I clean the jacket?
It is machine washable on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use a mild detergent, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid ironing.
What does the anti-bacterial odour treatment do?
The anti-bacterial treatment helps to inhibit the growth of odour-causing bacteria, keeping the jacket fresher for longer between washes.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?
The jacket provides lightweight warmth and is suitable for cool to mild conditions. For very cold weather, it may be best worn as a mid-layer over other insulating garments.
What is the purpose of the stretch binding?
The stretch binding at the cuffs and hem helps to create a secure fit, preventing cold air from entering the jacket and keeping the sleeves in place.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not repelling water effectively
The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for synthetic fabrics. Ensure the jacket is clean before re-application.
Jacket feels less warm than expected
Check that the jacket is zipped up fully and that the cuffs and hem are snug. Synthetic down can lose loft if compressed for long periods; allow it to air out.
Odour persists after washing
Ensure the jacket is thoroughly rinsed. If the odour treatment is no longer effective, consider washing with a specific sports wash or a mild detergent that targets odour. Ensure the jacket is fully dry before storage.
