FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

No, the Regatta Frankie Borg Fleece is designed for insulation and breathability. It is not windproof and should be worn under a windproof shell in gusty conditions.

Can I wear this as an outer layer?

Yes, it works well as an outer layer in dry, cool conditions, though it provides no protection against rain.

What is the material composition?

The garment is constructed from high-quality polyester-based borg fleece.

How do I determine my size?

The product follows standard generic apparel sizing; for layering, some users prefer to size up to allow for base layers underneath.

Does it have side pockets?

The Frankie Borg design emphasizes a sleek fit and features a secure zipped chest pocket rather than traditional side hand-warmer pockets.

Is the fabric prone to pilling?

While high-quality, all fleece can show signs of wear over time. Washing inside out and following care instructions minimizes pilling.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes

Avoid using fabric softeners and ensure the garment is washed on a low-heat, delicate cycle to prevent fiber matting.

Zipper is sticking or stiff

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it continues to stick, gently rub a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to act as a dry lubricant.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and highly breathable
  • Soft-to-the-touch borg fleece fabric
  • Versatile layering ability
  • Useful zipped security pocket
  • Clean and simple design aesthetic

Cons

  • Not windproof or waterproof
  • Material may attract lint or debris
  • Requires careful washing to maintain pile softness

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your fleece, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature (usually 30-40 degrees Celsius). Use a mild detergent.
  2. Avoid Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners as they can damage the performance of the fleece fibers and flatten the pile.
  3. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can melt or degrade the fleece material.
  4. Compatibility: This garment pairs well with standard waterproof or windproof outer layers, as its low-profile seams prevent bunching under heavier coats.
