FAQs

What is Symmetry Fleece?

Symmetry Fleece is Regatta's own-fabric technology designed to provide quick-drying, low-maintenance comfort with an anti-pill finish, ensuring the fleece remains soft and durable over time.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The Thompson Marl Fleece is designed for warmth and comfort in cool to mild conditions. For very cold weather, it is recommended to use it as part of a layering system, adding a waterproof and insulated outer shell.

Can I machine wash this fleece?

Yes, you can machine wash the fleece at 40°C using a mild detergent. Please refer to the care label for full instructions, and avoid bleach or ironing.

What does 'peached back marl fabric' mean?

Peached fabric has a soft, velvety feel achieved through a sanding process. Marl fabric has a heathered or mottled appearance created by blending different colored fibers. So, 'peached back marl fabric' describes a fabric with a heathered look and a soft, brushed interior.

How do I know if the size is correct?

The product is listed as 'Regular' fit. It is recommended to check the Regatta brand's specific sizing chart for the most accurate measurements to ensure the best fit for your body.

Does the fleece have pockets?

This specific product description does not detail pocket features. Typically, this style of fleece often includes hand-warmer pockets, but for exact details, checking product imagery or specifications on the retailer's page is advised.

How durable is the anti-pill finish?

The anti-pill finish is designed to minimize the formation of small balls of fiber on the fabric's surface caused by friction. While effective, the longevity of the finish depends on washing and usage. Following care instructions will help maintain it.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base and mid-layers underneath. This fleece is designed as a versatile layer, not a standalone extreme-weather garment. Check for any damage to the fabric that might compromise insulation.

Pilling after washing.

While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, excessive friction or harsh washing can sometimes cause minor pilling. Ensure you follow the care instructions, washing with similar items and avoiding abrasive materials. If minor pilling occurs, it can often be removed gently with a fabric shaver.

Zip is stiff or difficult to move.

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. Gently try to move the zip. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it. Avoid forcing the zip, which can cause damage.

Fleece loses its soft feel.

Fabric softeners can reduce the loft and softness of fleece. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners during washing. A gentle tumble dry on low heat (if permitted by care label) can sometimes help restore some softness.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
