FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Regatta Thompson Half Zip Fleece Top?

Its primary purpose is to serve as a lightweight, comfortable layering piece for warmth and casual wear in mild to cool conditions.

How do I know if this fleece will fit me?

Refer to the size chart provided by Regatta, paying attention to the specific measurements for chest and waist. This guide indicates it is a men's size S.

Can this fleece be worn in the rain?

The fleece itself is not waterproof. It can offer some protection against light drizzle due to its fabric, but it is best worn under a waterproof or water-resistant outer layer in wet conditions.

Is the fleece suitable for sensitive skin?

The fleece is made from 100% Polyester with a soft-touch finish, which is generally comfortable. However, individuals with very sensitive skin might prefer to wear a base layer underneath.

How durable is the anti-pill treatment?

The anti-pill treatment is designed to last for the lifetime of the garment with proper care. Following the washing and drying instructions will help maintain its effectiveness.

What does '170gsm' mean?

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter,' which is a measure of fabric density. 170gsm indicates a relatively lightweight fleece, suitable for layering.

Can I wear this for high-intensity activities?

It's suitable for moderate activities. For very high-intensity activities where you sweat a lot, consider pairing it with moisture-wicking base layers to manage perspiration effectively.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after washing.

Avoid using fabric softener. Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Air drying or low heat tumble drying is recommended.

Pilling is starting to appear.

Use a fabric shaver gently on the affected areas. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions to prevent further pilling.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the slider up and down. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or wax to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.

Fleece is not warm enough for very cold conditions.

This fleece is designed as a mid-layer. For colder weather, layer it over a warmer base layer or wear it under a more insulating outer jacket.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Soft and comfortable fleece material.
  • Durable fabric with anti-pill treatment.
  • Lightweight, perfect for layering.
  • Practical high-neck zip for adjustable warmth.
  • Versatile and understated design.

Cons

  • Color representation on screen may vary.
  • Primarily a layering piece, not a standalone heavy-weather garment.
  • Limited number of pockets (none explicitly mentioned).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This garment requires no setup. Simply unpack and wear.

Compatibility: The Thompson fleece is designed as a versatile layering piece. It pairs well with t-shirts, base layers, and can be worn under jackets, gilets, or waterproof shells. It is suitable for adult males of various builds, with a range of sizes available.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and longevity of your fleece:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the effectiveness of the anti-pill treatment and the fleece's breathability.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the fabric.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, use a cool setting only on the reverse side.
  5. Pilling: While the fabric is designed to resist pilling, occasional small pills may occur. These can usually be removed carefully with a fabric shaver.
