FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this fleece?
The Regatta Newhill fleece is designed as a warm, versatile mid-layer for outdoor activities and casual wear, providing comfort and insulation.
Can this fleece be worn in heavy rain?
No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and should be paired with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.
What materials is the fleece made from?
It is made from two-tone mélange knitted fleece, consisting of 70% polyester and 30% recycled polyester, weighing 280 g/m².
How many pockets does it have and are they secure?
Yes, it features three zipped pockets: two lower zip pockets and one zipped pocket on the sleeve for secure storage.
How should I wash the fleece to maintain its quality?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with similar colors. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or air dry. Do not bleach or iron.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It provides good warmth as a mid-layer. For very cold weather, it is recommended to layer it over a base layer and under a heavier, insulated, or waterproof outer jacket.
Does the fleece have a hood?

Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently pull the zipper tab while ensuring the fabric is flat. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Fleece feels less warm after washing.
Avoid using fabric softeners or harsh detergents. If the fleece feels matted, a gentle brushing might help restore some loft, but its insulating properties may be reduced over time with excessive washing.
Pilling on the fabric surface.
Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece over time. While it doesn't typically affect warmth, you can use a fabric shaver to gently remove any excessive pills if desired.
