Regatta Mellrey Fleece - Navy - Size 10

The Regatta Mellrey Fleece is primarily designed as a warm mid-layer for outdoor activities in cool or cold weather, or as a comfortable casual wear item.

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter'. A 500gsm fabric indicates a relatively dense and heavy fleece, providing significant warmth and insulation.

While it offers warmth, it is not waterproof or windproof. It's best used as a mid-layer under a waterproof or windproof jacket in adverse weather conditions. It can be an effective outer layer in dry, cool conditions.

Refer to the sizing information provided, which typically includes UK chest measurements (e.g., Size 10 UK: 34 in chest). It's recommended to measure your chest and compare it to the chart.

It provides good warmth, but for extreme cold, layering is essential. This fleece works well as a core warming layer combined with a thermal base layer and a protective outer shell.

Machine wash at 40°C using a mild detergent. Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleaching and ironing, as these can damage the fabric.

This specific model features raglan sleeves and a full zip with a standing collar. It does not typically feature adjustable cuffs or hem, relying on the inherent stretch of the fabric for fit.

Ensure you are using the correct detergent and not excessive amounts. Avoid fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece fibers. Tumble dry on low heat as recommended.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper track. Gently try to clear obstructions. Lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil (rubbing the tip along the teeth) or a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.

This is a natural characteristic of fleece over time, especially with friction. Reduce friction where possible. For minor pilling, a fabric shaver can be used carefully. Adhering to the recommended washing and drying methods helps minimize this.
