The Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece is a versatile layering piece. It's excellent for spring and autumn as an outer layer and perfect as a mid-layer for added warmth in winter. In summer, it can be useful for cooler evenings or higher altitudes.
Wicking performance means the fabric pulls sweat away from the skin to the surface of the fleece, keeping your child drier and more comfortable during activity. Quick-drying means that any moisture (from sweat or light rain) evaporates quickly, which helps prevent chilling and makes the fleece ready to wear again sooner.
The fleece is quick-drying and can handle an 'unexpected downpour' in terms of not retaining water for long. However, it is not waterproof. For sustained or heavy rain, it should be worn under a waterproof jacket.
No, the Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece features a comfortable cadet collar with a chin guard, designed to provide warmth and protection around the neck area without the added bulk of a hood.
170 Series Microfleece refers to the weight and type of fleece fabric used. It's a lightweight, fine-denier polyester fleece known for its softness, warmth-to-weight ratio, and ability to wick moisture and dry quickly, making it ideal for activewear.
Yes, being made from 100% Polyester, it's designed to be hard-wearing and durable enough to withstand the rigors of active children's play and outdoor adventures while maintaining its shape and performance through regular washing.
While the fleece has good wicking performance, very intense activity can saturate any fabric. Allow the fleece to air dry thoroughly or wash and tumble dry on low. Ensure it's not being worn alone in conditions requiring a more breathable or waterproof outer layer.
The Brigade II Fleece is a lightweight mid-layer. For colder temperatures, ensure it's worn over a suitable base layer and/or under an insulating outer jacket. Consider the layering strategy for the specific weather conditions.
Static can build up in synthetic fabrics. To reduce this, try adding a small amount of fabric softener to the wash cycle or using a dryer sheet when tumble drying. Be aware that excessive fabric softener might slightly reduce wicking performance over time.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of zipper lubricant (like graphite from a pencil or a dedicated zipper wax) can be applied to the teeth (avoid getting it on the fabric).
The Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece requires no special setup; it's ready to wear straight out of the packaging. It's highly compatible with other clothing layers: wear it over a base layer for added warmth, or under a waterproof shell for protection against rain and wind. For optimal care and to maintain its performance: machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid using bleach. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry. Do not iron. Following these instructions will help preserve the fleece's softness, wicking, and quick-drying properties.
