Product Information
Full details
This Regatta Newhill fleece is designed for adult males seeking a versatile and warm layer for outdoor adventures. Its key benefit is providing comfortable warmth with a stylish, textured look, making it suitable for casual wear or as a mid-layer. A potential caveat is that its primary function is warmth, and it may not offer full waterproof protection on its own. The fleece features a two-tone mélange knit, multiple zipped pockets for secure storage, and stretch binding for a snug fit.

FAQs
What is the primary use of this fleece?
The Regatta Newhill fleece is designed as a versatile mid-layer for warmth during outdoor activities in cooler weather, or as a standalone jacket in mild conditions.
Can this fleece be worn in the rain?
While the fleece offers some protection against light moisture, it is not waterproof. For significant rain, it should be worn under a waterproof outer shell.
What does 'mélange' fabric mean?
Mélange refers to a fabric made from yarns of different colours, creating a heathered or mixed-colour effect, which gives this fleece its distinctive appearance.
How much recycled material is in this fleece?
The fleece is made from 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the fleece features multiple zipped pockets, including two on the lower body and one on the sleeve, ensuring your belongings are kept secure.
How should I wash this fleece?
It is recommended to machine wash the fleece at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on a low heat setting.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
As a mid-layer, it provides good warmth. For extremely cold conditions, it would need to be combined with additional insulating layers and a protective outer shell.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. Check the garment's dimensions against a comfortable item you own. The stretch binding can offer some flexibility, but proper sizing is key.
Pilling or wear after several washes.
Follow the care instructions precisely. Wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat for drying. Minimize friction with abrasive materials.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.
