Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Montes women's hiking fleece is designed for adult females seeking a comfortable and versatile midlayer for outdoor activities and casual wear. Its key benefit is providing warmth without bulk due to its lightweight microfleece material. A potential caveat is that while it offers breathability, it is not waterproof. This fleece features a soft, breathable microfleece construction, a hardwearing and bulk-free design, and a convenient pull-down zip neck for adjustable airflow.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this fleece?

The Regatta Montes fleece is designed as a lightweight, breathable midlayer to provide warmth and comfort during outdoor activities and casual wear.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for breathability and warmth and should be worn with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.

How do I clean the fleece?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Do not iron.

What activities is this fleece best suited for?

It is ideal for hiking, running, and everyday casual wear, particularly on cooler days when an extra layer of warmth is needed.

Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer?

It can be worn as an outer layer in dry, mild conditions, but for significant wind or rain, it is best used as a midlayer under a protective shell.

Does the fleece come in other colours or sizes?

This specific listing is for the Blue Striped size 12. Other sizes and potentially colours may be available from the manufacturer, Regatta.

How does the half-zip neck function?

The half-zip neck allows you to easily adjust ventilation. Zip it up for more warmth or zip it down to release heat and improve airflow during physical activity.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels itchy or rough after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can sometimes cause irritation or damage fleece fibres. Ensure the garment is rinsed thoroughly.

Zip is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to move the zip back and forth. Check for any fabric caught in the zip. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a tiny drop of silicone lubricant to the zip teeth.

Fleece is losing its softness.

Avoid using fabric conditioners. Consider a gentle tumble dry on low heat after washing to help restore fluffiness.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft and breathable fabric for comfort.
  • Lightweight design makes it easy to layer.
  • Durable construction for repeated outdoor use.
  • Adjustable zip neck allows for ventilation.
  • Suitable for a range of activities from hiking to casual wear.

Cons

  • Not waterproof, requires a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.
  • Primarily a midlayer, may not be sufficient as an outer layer in very cold or windy weather.
  • May pill over time with heavy use, typical of fleece materials.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This fleece requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of packaging.

Compatibility: Designed as a women's garment, it pairs well with other outdoor apparel such as base layers, hiking trousers, and waterproof jackets. It functions effectively as a midlayer in a three-layer system.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C, preferably on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Avoid using high heat, as it can damage the fleece fibres.
  3. Ironing: Do not iron. If creases occur, a very low heat setting with a protective cloth might be used cautiously, but it's generally best avoided.
  4. Storage: Store folded in a dry place.
