Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Barlee Half Zip Fleece is an ideal choice for adult men seeking a reliable, insulating mid-layer for everyday outdoor activities, travel, or casual wear. Featuring a stylish textured knit with a soft, brushed back finish, it provides essential warmth without adding unnecessary bulk; however, users should note that the polyester material is primarily designed for insulation rather than heavy-duty waterproofing, meaning it performs best when layered under a rain shell during wet weather.

FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, the Barlee Fleece is breathable. While it provides warmth, strong winds will penetrate the fabric, so pair it with a windproof outer layer if needed.
Can I use this for high-intensity running?
While it is breathable, it is designed for casual outdoor wear and walking. Highly aerobic activities might cause you to overheat, even with the zip open.
Does the sizing run true to fit?
Yes, it follows standard men's sizing. It is designed to be worn comfortably as a mid-layer.
How many pockets does it have?
It features three pockets total: one on the chest and two at the lower hem, all with zip closures.
Is the material waterproof?
No, polyester fleece will absorb water in heavy rain. It should be worn under a rain shell during wet weather.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on the fabric surface
Pilling is common with synthetic knits. Use a fabric shaver or lint roller to gently remove surface fuzz.
Stiffening of the material after wash
Avoid using heavy fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and reduce their moisture-wicking efficiency. Stick to a simple liquid detergent.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your fleece, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool or lukewarm water. Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended. Hang the garment to dry away from direct heat sources, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Ironing: Avoid ironing. The material is resistant to wrinkles and high heat may melt the polyester fabric.
- Layering: This garment is designed for a standard fit. If you plan to wear it over multiple heavy layers, consider the fit relative to your outer shell to prevent restriction of movement.
