Product Information

Full details

This Regatta fleece top is designed for adult women seeking a comfortable and versatile layer for outdoor or casual wear. Its key benefit is providing lightweight insulation and a soft feel, making it ideal for transitional weather. A potential consideration is its regular fit, which might be looser than some prefer for a base layer. Key features include its anti-pilling polyester fabric, a convenient quarter-zip fastening, and subtle embroidered detailing.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this fleece top?

This fleece top is designed as a lightweight, insulated layer for comfort and warmth during outdoor activities or casual wear in mild to cool weather.

How should I wash the fleece to maintain its quality?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Washing inside out is recommended.

Does the 'anti-pilling' feature mean it will never pill?

The anti-pilling treatment significantly reduces the likelihood of pilling, maintaining the fabric's appearance over time. However, excessive friction or improper care can still lead to minor pilling.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

It provides good insulation for moderate to cool temperatures and is excellent as a layering piece. For very cold or windy conditions, it would likely need to be paired with a heavier insulating layer and a windproof/waterproof outer shell.

What does '1/4 Zip' mean?

It means the top has a zipper that extends about a quarter of the way down the chest, allowing for adjustable ventilation and easy on/off.

What type of fit does this top have?

The top has a 'Regular' fit, designed for comfort and ease of movement, suitable for everyday wear and layering.

What material is the fleece made from?

The fleece is made from 100% Polyester.

Can this be worn as a standalone top?

Yes, it can be worn as a standalone top in mild weather, but its design also makes it ideal for layering under jackets or coats when more warmth is needed.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect fleece texture. Consider a low-heat tumble dry with dryer balls to restore softness.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstructions. You can also apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.

Pilling is starting to appear.

While designed to be anti-pilling, excessive friction can sometimes cause this. Ensure the garment is washed inside out and avoid washing with abrasive items like jeans. If minor pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can be used carefully.

Garment feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the fleece is not the outermost layer in windy or very cold conditions. It is designed as an insulating layer and performs best when paired with a windproof or waterproof outer shell.
