Borg fleece is a type of synthetic fabric designed to mimic the look and feel of sheepskin, characterized by its deep pile and extremely soft, fluffy texture. It's known for excellent warmth retention and comfort.
The Frankie Warm Full Zip Fleece is designed for warmth in chilly to cold, dry conditions. It is not waterproof or heavily windproof. For wet or very windy weather, it should be worn as an insulating layer under a protective outer shell.
The reflective trims are designed to bounce light back to its source, making the wearer more visible in low-light conditions, such as at dawn, dusk, or night, when illuminated by headlights or flashlights. This enhances safety during outdoor activities.
The zipped pockets are designed for small essentials like keys, small snacks, or tissues. For children's sizes, they are generally not large enough to comfortably fit most adult-sized smartphones, but may fit smaller kid-friendly devices.
Yes, in mild to cool, dry weather, it can be worn as a primary outer layer. For colder temperatures, or if there's a risk of rain or strong wind, it's best used as an insulating mid-layer.
Refer to the Regatta size chart, usually available on the product page or manufacturer's website. Measure your child's chest, waist, and height, and select the size that corresponds most closely to their measurements. This specific variant is for size_children_uk: 5-6.
With proper care (washing according to instructions and avoiding harsh chemicals or high heat), the camouflage pattern should retain its vibrancy. Frequent washing with strong detergents or high heat drying can potentially cause some fading over a very long period.
Ensure the fleece is properly sized; a fit too loose can allow cold air in. Consider layering with a base layer underneath for added warmth in very cold conditions. Check if the zipper is fully closed and cuffs/hem are snug.
Periodically clean zippers with a small brush to remove dirt or lint. Apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant sparingly if stiffness persists. Avoid forcing the zipper to prevent damage.
Pilling can occur with fleece over time, especially from friction. To minimize, wash inside out on a gentle cycle, avoid excessive agitation, and do not use fabric softeners. Air drying helps preserve the fabric texture.
Ensure trims are clean. Dirt and mud can obscure their reflective properties. Gently wipe with a damp cloth if needed. Avoid harsh scrubbing or abrasive cleaners that could damage the reflective material.
Setup: Simply put on the fleece over other layers as needed. The full zip allows for easy dressing. Ensure the size chosen (size_children_uk: 5-6 in this specific variant) is appropriate for the child's measurements to ensure maximum comfort and thermal performance. Compatibility: This fleece is designed for children (age_group: kids) and is suitable for various casual and outdoor activities. It functions effectively as a layering piece under waterproof jackets or heavier coats, and can also be worn as an outer layer in milder, dry conditions. Care: To maintain the quality and performance of the fleece material, follow these care instructions: 1. Washing: Machine wash cool (around 30°C) with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle. 2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can reduce the wicking properties and cause pilling over time. 3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, air dry flat. High heat can damage the fleece fibers. 4. Ironing: Do not iron. 5. Bleaching: Do not bleach. 6. Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean. Proper care ensures the borg fleece remains soft, fluffy, and effective at providing insulation.
