Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Professional Thor III Interactive Full Zip Fleece is an ideal mid-layer designed for individuals seeking warmth and comfort during outdoor pursuits or daily wear. Its key benefit lies in its anti-pill, quick-drying polyester fleece construction, which provides lasting durability and effective moisture management. While highly effective as a thermal layer, it performs best when integrated into a broader layering system and is not intended as a waterproof or extreme-weather outer garment.

FAQs
Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter conditions?
The Thor III fleece provides excellent warmth as a mid-layer. For very cold winter conditions, it should be paired with a suitable base layer and a protective, insulated outer shell for optimal warmth and weather resistance.
Can I wear this fleece in the rain?
This fleece is not waterproof. While it dries quickly, it will absorb water in the rain. For wet conditions, it should be worn as a mid-layer underneath a waterproof outer jacket.
What does 'anti-pill' mean?
'Anti-pill' refers to a treatment applied to the fabric that prevents small balls of fiber, known as pills or bobbles, from forming on the surface. This helps the fleece maintain its smooth appearance and soft feel over time.
Is the fit true to size?
The Thor III fleece is designed with a 'Regular Fit'. Generally, customers find it true to size for layering comfortably. Refer to the Regatta Professional size guide for specific measurements.
What activities is this fleece best for?
This fleece is ideal for a wide range of activities including hiking, walking, camping, general outdoor work, or as a comfortable everyday casual layer. Its moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties make it suitable for active use.
Can I customize or embroider this fleece?
Yes, the fabric is noted as 'Ideal For Decoration', meaning it is well-suited for customization such as embroidery or printing, making it a popular choice for workwear or team uniforms.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm or less breathable over time.
This can happen if fabric softener residue builds up. Wash the fleece without fabric softener. Ensure pockets are empty before washing.
Zipper snags or is difficult to operate.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Try lubricating the zipper gently with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant. If the issue persists, inspect the zipper pull for damage.
Interactive zip not fitting into an outer jacket.
Confirm that both garments are Regatta Professional interactive styles. Zippers can sometimes vary slightly between brands or even older models. Ensure the fleece is zipped correctly into the *inner* interactive zip, not the main outer zip of the jacket.
