Regatta Marizion Hooded Jacket - Black - Size 16

No, it features a water-repellent finish that causes light rain to bead off. It is not fully waterproof and is not designed for heavy or prolonged rain.

Feather-free insulation refers to premium recycled synthetic down. It provides warmth similar to traditional down but is made from animal-friendly, cruelty-free polyester fibers, often from recycled plastic bottles.

The jacket is machine washable. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific instructions, but generally, machine wash cold with similar colors and avoid harsh detergents or bleach.

Yes, the jacket includes two zipped lower pockets for secure storage of your essentials.

It provides exceptional warmth with its insulation. For very cold winter conditions, it's recommended to wear it as part of a layering system with appropriate base and mid-layers for optimal comfort.

The outer shell is made from lightweight 20d polyamide fabric, which is durable for its weight and contributes to the jacket's overall comfort.

The stretch binding at the hood opening, cuffs, and hem helps create a snug fit, effectively sealing out cold air and preventing heat loss, which enhances overall warmth and comfort.

The jacket has a water-repellent finish, not a waterproof one. This means it repels light rain, but prolonged exposure or heavy downpours will eventually soak through. For full waterproofing, an additional rain shell is recommended.

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt can reduce insulation effectiveness. Check that all zippers are closed and the stretch binding at the cuffs and hem is snug to prevent heat loss. Consider layering with appropriate base and mid-layers for colder conditions.

Gently clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. A small amount of zipper lubricant (like a graphite pencil or specialized zipper wax) can help smooth operation. Avoid forcing the zipper.

This can happen with synthetic fills. When tumble drying on a low setting, add a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to the dryer. These will help break up clumps and restore the loft of the insulation. Make sure the jacket is completely dry before storing.

The 20d polyamide fabric is lightweight. Regular, gentle cleaning according to the care instructions will help maintain its appearance. For specific stains, try spot cleaning with a mild soap solution before full machine wash.
