Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Bodywarmer is a versatile, lightweight fleece vest designed for women seeking additional core warmth without sacrificing mobility. It is an ideal companion for hikers, travelers, and anyone needing a reliable layering piece for everyday outdoor activities; however, as a sleeveless garment, it does not provide thermal protection for the arms, making it best suited for transitional weather or as part of a multi-layer system.

FAQs

Is the Regatta Frankie Bodywarmer waterproof?

No, this garment is made from fleece and is not waterproof. It is intended to provide warmth as a layer under a shell or as an outer layer in dry conditions.

Can I wear this while exercising?

Yes, the fleece is breathable and the sleeveless design ensures excellent freedom of movement, making it well-suited for activities like brisk walking or light hiking.

How do I determine my size?

The Frankie Bodywarmer is available in standard UK dress sizes. We recommend selecting your usual size for a comfortable fit that accommodates light layers underneath.

Does the fleece provide wind protection?

While it keeps the core warm, standard micro fleece is permeable to air. In very windy conditions, it is best worn beneath a windproof or waterproof jacket.

Where are the pockets located?

There are two zippered lower hand pockets and one additional zippered chest pocket for securing small essentials.

Troubleshooting

Pilling or bobbling on the surface of the fleece

Use a fabric shaver or a dedicated pilling comb to gently remove surface lint and restore the smooth appearance of the fabric.

Zippers feeling stiff or catching

Check for debris in the zipper track. If it continues, gently rub a small amount of paraffin wax or a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to lubricate them.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Regatta Frankie Bodywarmer retains its insulating properties and shape, follow these guidelines:

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the fleece fibers.
  • Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent shrinkage or fiber degradation.
  • Storage: Hang the garment when not in use to maintain its shape, or fold neatly to prevent deep creases.

Compatibility:

This garment is designed as a modular layering piece. It fits well under heavier waterproof jackets or over thin long-sleeved base layers. Choose your standard UK dress size for a performance fit, or consider sizing up if you prefer to wear it over thicker sweaters.
