FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Regatta Thompson Fleece?
Its primary purpose is to serve as a versatile, comfortable, and durable midlayer for men during outdoor activities, providing warmth without bulk.
What does 'anti-pill' mean?
Anti-pill means the fabric is treated or constructed to resist the formation of small balls of fiber (pills) on its surface, maintaining a smoother appearance over time.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It is designed as a midlayer, offering good warmth. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to wear it under a warmer, insulated outer jacket.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the product sizing chart for Regatta apparel. The fleece is available in various sizes, including XXXXL, to accommodate different fits.
Can I wear this fleece directly against my skin?
Yes, the brushed inner side is designed for comfort and can be worn directly against the skin, especially if you have sensitive skin, due to its soft texture.
What is the material composition?
The fleece is made from 100% polyester Symmetry Fleece, with 80% polyester and 20% reclaimed polyester fabric.
How should I wash the fleece?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Iron on a cool setting if needed.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels rough after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle wash cycle and avoiding harsh detergents. Tumble drying on a low heat can sometimes restore softness, or air drying away from direct heat sources.
Zipper is stiff
Gently work the zipper up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Pilling forming on the surface
While designed to be anti-pill, excessive friction can still cause minor pilling. Use a fabric shaver for a smooth finish. Ensure the garment is washed inside out to minimize abrasion.
