FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
It provides good insulation against light breezes due to the knit structure, but it is not a technical windproof garment.
Can I wear this in the rain?
The Newhill is not waterproof. It is designed to be worn under a waterproof shell for wet-weather protection.
Is the material stretchy?
Yes, it features stretch binding and the fabric construction allows for natural movement, making it ideal for active use.
How many pockets does it have?
It features three zipped pockets to keep your valuables secure.
What is the best way to clean it?
Wash it on a gentle cycle in cool water and hang it to dry to preserve the integrity of the polyester fibers.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appearing fuzzy or pilling
Avoid washing with heavy-duty fabrics like denim. Use a fabric shaver gently to remove surface pilling.
Zip feels stiff or sticks
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and consider applying a tiny amount of wax or graphite to the zip track to improve glide.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Regatta Newhill fleece, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
- Drying: Air dry naturally; avoid high-heat tumble drying as it may damage the stretch fibers and cause the fabric to shrink.
- Storage: Hang the garment when not in use to maintain its shape, or fold neatly if space is limited.
- Layering: This piece is highly compatible with standard waterproof jackets or insulated gilets; choose your standard size for a comfortable fit that allows for a base layer underneath.
