Frankie Warm Borg Full-Zip Insulating Fleece - Regatta - Blue - Size: 3-4

No, the Regatta Junior Frankie Warm Borg Fleece is designed for insulation and warmth, not waterproofing. For wet conditions, it should be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof outer jacket.

Borg fleece is a type of fleece fabric characterized by its deep pile and textured, sheep-like appearance. It's known for being exceptionally soft, warm, and comfortable due to its ability to trap air effectively.

Yes, in mild, dry, and not overly windy conditions, it can serve as an outer layer. However, for colder, windier, or wet weather, it's best utilized as an insulating mid-layer.

Always refer to Regatta's specific size chart, usually found on the product page or packaging. Measure your child's height and chest circumference for the most accurate fit, as age ranges can vary between brands.

Yes, the fleece features zipped pockets, providing secure storage for small items and preventing them from falling out during activity.

The reflective trims are designed to reflect light back to its source, such as car headlights or streetlights, making your child more visible in low-light conditions and enhancing safety.

While fleece is generally durable, pilling can occur with friction and improper washing. Following the care instructions (washing on a gentle cycle, avoiding harsh detergents, and air drying) can significantly reduce pilling.

Ensure proper layering. The fleece is an insulating layer; an outer shell may be needed for wind or extreme cold. Check if it's too large, allowing cold air to circulate.

Check for fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away and try again. For persistent stiffness, a small amount of zipper lubricant (like zipper wax or a pencil lead rubbed on the teeth) can help, but ensure it's child-safe.

This often occurs from high heat or fabric softener. Ensure you are washing with cold water, using a gentle cycle, avoiding fabric softeners, and air drying or tumble drying on the lowest heat setting.
