Product Overview
The Regatta Professional Northdale insulated jacket is a refined solution for the modern professional who requires a balance between corporate presentation and environmental protection. This garment is engineered to bridge the gap between urban styling and technical performance, utilising advanced recycled materials to offer a sustainable choice for your business workwear. Designed specifically for the unpredictable British climate, it serves as a lightweight yet thermally efficient layer that maintains a smart silhouette without the cumbersome bulk often associated with insulated outerwear.
Key Features
- Hard-wearing 300D polyester: The outer shell is constructed from a robust weave that resists abrasions and daily wear, ensuring the jacket remains in peak condition even in demanding work environments.
- Durable water-repellent finish: This protective coating encourages water to bead and roll off the surface, keeping you dry during light showers and preventing the fabric from becoming heavy with moisture.
- Recycled synthetic Warmloft insulation: By using high-quality recycled fibres, this jacket provides exceptional 'down-touch' warmth while supporting your company's sustainability goals.
- Compressible design: The lightweight nature of the insulation allows the jacket to be easily packed or layered, making it ideal for staff who are frequently on the move.
Design & Performance
The core of the Northdale's performance lies in its Warmloft technology. This synthetic insulation mimics the properties of natural down, trapping pockets of air to maintain body temperature in cold conditions. However, unlike natural down, it remains effective even when damp and dries significantly faster. The 100% polyester construction is specifically chosen for its resilience; it is a fabric that holds its shape well and resists the typical creasing that can occur during a busy workday.
The outer 300D polyester is a dense, well-engineered fabric that provides a superior finish. It offers a level of durability that ensures the jacket is not merely a seasonal item but a long-term investment in your team's uniform. The quilted design is not purely aesthetic; it serves to keep the insulation evenly distributed, preventing cold spots and ensuring consistent thermal performance across the torso.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Northdale insulated jacket is an excellent canvas for customisation, allowing you to align your team's appearance with your brand identity. Embroidery is highly recommended for this garment; our high-precision machinery can apply intricate logos or staff names to the chest or sleeves, providing a traditional, permanent, and professional finish that stands out against the quilted texture.
For those requiring larger, more vibrant branding, this jacket also supports professional print techniques. Our in-house team at MyWorkwear has been refining these processes since 1976 at our Telford facility. Whether you choose the texture of embroidery or the clarity of print, we ensure that the customisation is applied with technical expertise to maintain the garment's integrity and water-repellent properties.
Use Cases
This jacket is particularly well-suited for corporate hospitality, site visits, and team members who transition between office environments and the outdoors. Its smart, urban aesthetic makes it appropriate for client-facing roles where a standard high-visibility or heavy-duty work jacket might appear too industrial. It is an essential item for anyone requiring a professional appearance during the autumn and winter months.

Practical Advice
The Northdale is designed as a manageable layer. For those working in particularly harsh conditions, it fits comfortably over a medium-weight fleece or sweatshirt without restricting movement. When selecting your size, please note that the fit is designed to look smart and tailored; if you intend to wear multiple heavy layers underneath, you may wish to consider the measurements provided for the 38" to 50" chest range carefully.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high 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 soap. Standard detergents can sometimes contain chemicals that strip away the protective outer coating, reducing the jacket's effectiveness in the rain.
Do not use bleach on this garment, as it will weaken the synthetic fibres and compromise the colour integrity of both the jacket and your embroidered logo. For drying, a low tumble dry setting is advised to help 'plump' the synthetic insulation and restore its thermal efficiency. Avoid high heat, which can damage the polyester fabric.
If ironing is required to maintain a crisp appearance, use a cool iron setting only. Do not dry clean this jacket, as the harsh solvents used in the process can degrade the technical finishes and the recycled insulation inside.
