Product Overview
The Regatta Professional Essential hybrid jacket is a technically engineered piece of outerwear designed to provide warmth without the restrictive bulk of a traditional heavy coat. By integrating micro poplin fabric with flexible stretch panels, this jacket addresses the specific needs of professionals who move between active tasks and stationary duties in unpredictable weather. The combination of thermal insulation and mobility-focused design makes it a versatile staple for any professional wardrobe.
Key Features
- Extol stretch sleeves and side panels: These high-stretch inserts provide an anatomical fit that follows the wearer's natural movement, preventing the jacket from riding up during physical work.
- Warmloft down-touch insulation: This synthetic insulation technology traps heat effectively while remaining lightweight, ensuring thermal comfort in chilly conditions without the weight of traditional padding.
- Durable water-repellent finish: The outer surface is treated to shed light rain, keeping the wearer dry during brief showers and damp environments.
- Interchangeable zip pulls: Supplied with four alternative colour options, these allow for subtle customisation to match company branding or team identification.
- Sustainable construction: Manufactured using recycled materials, this garment supports corporate social responsibility goals without compromising on technical performance.
Design & Performance
The core of this jacket is constructed from polyester micro poplin and fine-gauge polyamide fabric, chosen for their balance of durability and minimal weight. The micro poplin provides a smooth, professional finish that is resistant to daily wear, while the strategic use of Extol stretch panels ensures the garment remains breathable and flexible. The Warmloft insulation is designed to mimic the properties of natural down, offering excellent thermal efficiency and compressibility, which allows for easy movement and layering. The inclusion of a cut-away inner label ensures comfort at the neck, avoiding the irritation often caused by traditional tags.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This hybrid jacket is specifically designed to accommodate professional branding. Embroidery is the preferred choice for a superior, long-lasting finish on the chest or sleeves, perfect for company logos and individual names. The fabric's weave ensures that stitched designs remain crisp and well-defined. For larger, more prominent graphics, the smooth panels are also suitable for high-quality printing. All customisation is carried out in-house by our expert team in Telford, drawing on MyWorkwear's heritage of excellence since 1976 to ensure your branding is executed to the highest standard.
Use Cases
This garment is ideal for site supervisors, surveyors, and delivery drivers who require protection from the elements but need the freedom of movement to operate vehicles or equipment. It also serves as an excellent layering piece for tradespeople working in large, unheated indoor spaces like warehouses or workshops, providing just enough warmth to maintain productivity throughout the day.

Practical Advice
This jacket features a streamlined fit due to its hybrid construction. If you intend to wear it over thicker layers, such as a heavy sweatshirt or fleece, we recommend reviewing our size guide and potentially selecting one size larger than your standard measurement to ensure a comfortable fit across the shoulders and chest.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the water-repellent finish and the loft of the insulation, we recommend a cool machine wash using Regatta Isotex Cleaner or a pure, mild soap. This prevents the buildup of residues that can impair the fabric's natural breathability.
Do not use bleach, as these chemicals will break down the synthetic fibres and cause permanent damage to the jacket's structural integrity and colour. It is important that you do not tumble dry this garment; instead, allow it to air dry naturally to prevent the insulation from clumping or being damaged by high heat. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting to avoid scorching the micro poplin surface.
Finally, ensure the jacket is never stored while damp, as this can lead to mildew, and keep it away from direct sunlight during storage to prevent the fabric and your custom branding from fading over time.
