FAQs

What is the primary material of this fleece top?

The fleece top is made from 70% Polyester and 30% Recycled Polyester, featuring a 210gsm Microfleece fabric.

Does this fleece have pockets?

Yes, it features two side pockets with zips and one chest pocket.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

As a mid-layer, it provides good warmth. For very cold weather, it would be best layered under a heavier insulated jacket or coat.

Can this fleece be worn by men?

This specific model is listed as a Women's fleece top. Please check the product details for gender-specific sizing.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the brand's size chart for Regatta apparel, paying attention to measurements for chest, waist, and hips. The size listed (e.g., 18 UK) corresponds to a specific UK dress size.

What does 'Flat Locked Seams' mean for comfort?

Flat locked seams are constructed to lie flat against the skin, reducing the potential for rubbing and chafing, which is especially beneficial during physical activity.

Is the 'Quarter Zip' functional for ventilation?

Yes, the quarter zip allows you to open the neckline for increased airflow and ventilation when you start to feel warm.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after washing.

Ensure you are not using fabric softener, as this can sometimes affect the feel of fleece. Air drying can also help maintain softness better than tumble drying on high heat.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth to ensure it's not caught. You can also try rubbing a graphite pencil tip on the zipper teeth to lubricate it.

Pilling or bobbling on the fabric surface.

Pilling can occur with normal wear. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out and avoid excessive abrasion with rough surfaces. A fabric shaver can be used to carefully remove existing pills.
