Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Borg Bodywarmer is designed for adults seeking reliable core insulation without sacrificing arm mobility. It is an excellent choice for individuals who need a versatile layering piece that can be worn over shirts, knits, or thin fleeces during chilly days. While it excels at providing warmth through its soft borg fleece, users should note that the sleeveless design offers no protection for the arms, making it most effective when combined with long-sleeved base layers.

FAQs

Is the Frankie Borg Bodywarmer waterproof?

No, this garment is made of polyester fleece and is not waterproof. It is best used in dry conditions or as a layering piece under a waterproof shell.

Can I wear this under another coat?

Yes, its sleeveless design makes it an ideal mid-layer to wear under a larger, bulkier waterproof or windproof coat for added warmth.

How should I wash the garment?

Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach and tumble drying to prevent damage to the fleece material.

What does the 'borg' in the name refer to?

Borg refers to a type of synthetic sheepskin or sherpa-style fleece that is known for its high insulation properties and soft, fuzzy texture.

Is this bodywarmer unisex?

This specific model is designed for men, but its cut is versatile enough for anyone preferring a standard fit.

Troubleshooting

Fleece fibers looking matted or flat

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently groom the fleece fibers after washing and air drying to restore the loft.

Visible lint or dust caught in the material

Use a lint roller or a dedicated garment brush to remove surface debris from the borg fleece.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment is designed for easy integration into an existing wardrobe. Because it features a relaxed fit to accommodate base layers, you should select your standard size. To care for the polyester borg fleece, wash it on a cool, gentle cycle with like colors. Avoid using fabric softeners that can mat the fleece fibers.
