Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Thompson Half Zip Fleece Top is an essential mid-layer for adult men who need a lightweight, versatile garment for everyday outdoor activities or casual layering. Crafted from 170gsm Symmetry fleece, it offers a soft-touch feel and reliable warmth without bulk, making it perfect for transitional weather. However, users should note that as a lightweight layer, it is designed for moderate temperatures and may require a heavier shell in extreme wind or sub-zero conditions.

FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Thompson is made of polyester fleece, which is designed for warmth and breathability rather than water resistance.

Can I wear this as a base layer?

While it is designed primarily as a mid-layer, the soft-touch fabric allows it to be worn over a lightweight t-shirt comfortably.

Does it shrink in the wash?

If washed and dried according to the care instructions (cool water, low heat), it should maintain its size effectively.

What does 170gsm mean?

It stands for 170 grams per square meter, which describes the weight of the fabric, indicating it is a lightweight fleece.

Is the material anti-pill?

Yes, it is treated on one side with anti-pill technology to reduce the formation of bobbles.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing fuzzy or pilled after heavy use

Use a fabric shaver or de-piller tool to gently remove surface fibers, and ensure you are washing the garment inside out.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Apply a tiny amount of candle wax or a graphite pencil tip to the teeth of the zipper to lubricate the mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight 170gsm construction ideal for layering
  • Anti-pill technology keeps the fabric looking new
  • Easy ventilation adjustment with half-zip functionality
  • Soft-touch fabric provides excellent comfort
  • Practical, clean silhouette suitable for various environments

Cons

  • Lightweight build may not be sufficient for extreme winter cold
  • Lacks zippered pockets for secure storage
  • Polyester material requires careful temperature management during washing

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This fleece is a standalone garment that integrates seamlessly with most casual and technical outerwear. For best results in extreme conditions, pair it with a windproof or waterproof outer shell to maximize heat retention.

Care Instructions:

  1. Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cool water.
  2. Do not use fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the fleece.
  3. Hang dry or tumble dry on a low-heat setting to prevent shrinkage and maintain the fabric's integrity.
  4. Avoid ironing directly on the fleece surface.
