Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer is an ideal choice for adults seeking lightweight, reliable core warmth during transitional weather or as a comfortable mid-layer for daily activities. Crafted from high-quality polyester borg fleece, it excels at trapping body heat while maintaining freedom of movement for the arms and shoulders. While its soft, brushed interior provides exceptional comfort, the open-arm design means it is best suited for layering under a waterproof shell in heavy rain rather than as a standalone outer garment in wet conditions.

FAQs

Is the Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer windproof?

No, the borg fleece is breathable and designed for insulation, not as a windproof shell. It is best used as a mid-layer under a windproof or waterproof jacket.

Can I wear this in the rain?

While the polyester material will dry relatively quickly if it gets damp, it is not water-resistant. We recommend wearing it under a waterproof layer during rainy weather.

How should I wash this garment?

Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Do not bleach, tumble dry on low if required, and avoid using fabric softeners that can coat the synthetic fibres.

Does it have a zip closure?

Yes, it features a central front zipper reinforced with stretch binding for easy entry and secure closure.

What is the material composition?

The bodywarmer is made from durable, insulating polyester, selected for its softness and ability to retain warmth.

Is the sizing true to size?

Yes, the UK 16 size corresponds to standard Regatta sizing. If you prefer to wear thick sweaters underneath, you may consider if a looser fit works better for your layering style.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appearing matted or flat after washing

Once dry, gently brush the outer borg fabric with a soft-bristled garment brush to lift the fibres and restore the loft.

Static buildup on the fabric

Avoid over-drying in a tumble dryer and use a small amount of anti-static spray if necessary, though air drying is recommended.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for transitional seasons
  • High-stretch bindings ensure a comfortable, non-restrictive fit
  • Soft-touch interior lining feels comfortable over varied clothing layers
  • Flatlock seams prevent chafing during active use
  • Easy-access pockets for daily convenience

Cons

  • Not waterproof or windproof on its own
  • Borg material may attract lint if not cared for properly
  • Offers less protection than a full-sleeved jacket

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Frankie Borg Bodywarmer is a simple layering piece, no complex setup is required. For sizing, the UK 16 fit follows standard retail sizing, but consider your base layer thickness when choosing your fit. To maintain the integrity of the borg fabric, always follow the care label instructions. Typically, you should machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with like colours. Avoid using heavy fabric softeners as they can flatten the fibres. To keep the fleece looking plush, air dry away from direct heat sources, and avoid ironing, as the synthetic polyester material can be damaged by high temperatures.
