Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Garrian Full Zip Heavyweight Fleece is an ideal choice for men seeking a reliable, insulating midlayer for cooler weather and transitional seasons. Featuring a specialized 440g Sherpa-backed microfleece, it provides exceptional warmth while remaining lightweight enough for daily wear. While it is perfect for casual outdoor adventures like autumnal walks or commuting, users should note that as a heavyweight fleece, it is best suited as a layering piece rather than an outer shell for extreme weather conditions.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Garrian fleece waterproof?
No, this fleece is made of polyester and is designed for warmth, not water resistance. It should be worn under a waterproof jacket in wet conditions.
Can this be worn as a standalone jacket?
Yes, it is suitable for dry, cool weather as a primary layer, but it is not windproof.
How does the sizing run?
This garment is designed in standard men's sizing; the adjustable shock cord allows you to tailor the waist fit.
Is the fleece heavy to wear?
Despite the 440g weight of the fabric, the fleece is designed to feel lightweight on the body.
Are the pockets zipped?
Yes, the garment features two zipped lower pockets for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Use a fabric shaver to gently remove small balls of fiber that form from friction.
Zip feels stuck
Check for loose threads caught in the track and ensure the fabric is not pinched; a small amount of graphite pencil lead on the teeth can help lubrication.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your fleece lasts for many seasons, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the fleece fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible to maintain the loft of the Sherpa lining. Avoid high heat from tumble dryers which can shrink the polyester.
- Storage: Store hanging to maintain the garment's shape and prevent creasing.
- Compatibility: This fleece works well layered under standard parkas or technical hardshell jackets. For best results, pair with moisture-wicking base layers to keep dry.
