The Regatta Frankie Full Zip Fleece is designed for adult males seeking everyday warmth and comfort, particularly for outdoor activities or as a reliable layering piece. Its key benefit is providing immediate insulation through its soft microfleece construction, with the caveat that the poplin panels offer some protection but are not a substitute for waterproof outerwear. This fleece features a full zip, multiple pockets, and stretch binding for a comfortable fit, making it suitable for countryside walks and weekend adventures.

No, the fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and comfort in dry conditions or as a layer under a waterproof jacket.
Yes, the fleece has three zipped pockets: two lower hand pockets and one chest pocket.
While comfortable, it is generally better suited as a mid-layer due to its insulating properties. A lighter base layer would be more appropriate for high-exertion activities.
This guide focuses on the Black XL variant. Other sizes and colors may be available from Regatta, check product listings for a full range.
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or line dry. Do not iron.
GSM stands for 'grams per square meter'. A higher GSM value, like 210 gsm for the microfleece, typically indicates a denser and warmer fabric.
Avoid using fabric softener, as it can coat the fibers and reduce their ability to trap air. If softener was used, re-wash with a small amount of white vinegar to help remove residue.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a small brush and apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to help it glide smoothly.
Some pilling is normal with fleece. To minimize it, wash inside out and avoid abrasive contact with other items in the wash. Gently remove any significant pills with a fabric shaver.
Setup: The Regatta Frankie Full Zip Fleece requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility: This fleece is designed as an adult male garment and functions best when layered with other clothing. It is compatible with various outdoor jackets and base layers.
