FAQs

What is the main benefit of the Regatta Frankie Fleece?

The main benefit is its ability to provide lightweight warmth and casual comfort, making it ideal for everyday wear and relaxed outdoor activities.

What material is the fleece made from?

It is made from 100% polyester microfleece fabric, weighing 210gsm.

How many pockets does this fleece have?

The fleece features three zipped pockets: one on the chest and two lower pockets.

Can I wear this fleece in very cold weather?

While it provides good warmth for its weight, for very cold weather, it is best used as a layering piece under a more substantial jacket.

How should I wash the fleece?

Machine wash at 40°C and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not bleach or iron.

Is the fit suitable for active pursuits?

The fleece offers a relaxed fit suitable for casual activities. Stretch binding on the collar, cuffs, and hem helps maintain a secure fit during moderate movement.

What does 'Colour Block' refer to?

Colour Block refers to the design style where distinct blocks or sections of different colors are used to create a modern, geometric pattern on the garment.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm after washing

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, as it can reduce the loft and insulating properties of microfleece. Tumble dry on low heat as recommended.

Zipper is stiff or sticking

Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper.

Pilling on the fabric surface

Some pilling is normal with microfleece over time. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out and avoid abrasion with rough surfaces. Use a fabric shaver carefully if needed.
