FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this fleece top?

The Regatta Thompson Half Zip Fleece Top is designed as a versatile mid-layer for warmth, suitable for outdoor activities and casual wear.

How do I find the correct size?

Refer to the Regatta Men's sizing guide provided in the product description. It lists chest measurements for sizes XS through XXXXXL to help you find the best fit.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the fleece material is not waterproof. It is designed to provide insulation and is best used as a layer under waterproof outerwear if significant rain is expected.

How should I clean the fleece to maintain its quality?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and do not iron or dry clean. This helps preserve the anti-pill finish and softness.

Can this fleece be worn by women?

While designed for men, women can wear this fleece. It's recommended to consult the size chart and consider purchasing a smaller size for a more tailored fit.

What does '170gsm Symmetry fleece' mean?

GSM stands for grams per square meter, indicating the weight and density of the fabric. 170gsm suggests a lightweight fleece, providing warmth without excessive bulk.

What is the anti-pill feature?

The 'anti-pill' treatment means the fabric is designed to resist the formation of small balls or 'pills' on its surface, helping the fleece look newer for longer.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece fibers. Air drying or low-heat tumble drying is recommended.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper track. Gently pull the fabric away. If the zipper still sticks, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth.

Fleece is not warm enough as an outer layer

This fleece is designed as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, layer it under a windproof or waterproof jacket to maximize warmth and protection from the elements.
