FAQs

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The Thor III Fleece provides excellent warmth, but for very cold or windy conditions, it is best used as an insulating mid-layer underneath a windproof and waterproof outer jacket. It is not designed as a standalone piece for extreme cold.

Can I wear this fleece in the rain?

This fleece offers minimal water resistance. While it's quick-drying, it is not waterproof and will get saturated in rain. For wet conditions, it should be worn under a waterproof shell.

What does 'interactive' mean?

'Interactive' refers to a feature that allows this fleece to be zipped into a compatible Regatta Professional outer shell jacket, creating a single, integrated, and warmer jacket system. Look for other Regatta Professional products labeled 'interactive'.

How do I choose the correct size?

The Regatta Professional Thor III Fleece is available in UK women's sizes 6 to 22. It's recommended to refer to Regatta Professional's specific sizing chart for accurate measurements to ensure the best fit.

Is this fleece suitable for embroidery or printing?

Yes, being made from 100% Polyester, this fast-drying fabric is well-suited for decoration, such as embroidery or printing. Consult with your decorator for best practices.

Will this fleece shrink after washing?

As it's made from 100% polyester, the fleece is highly resistant to shrinking, especially when washed in cold water and tumble dried on a low heat or air-dried, as recommended.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm or less effective at wicking moisture.

This can often be caused by residue from fabric softeners. Wash the fleece without fabric softener and ensure it's thoroughly rinsed. A specialized technical wash for performance fabrics can also help restore properties.

Pilling (small fabric balls) appears despite anti-pill claim.

While anti-pill, excessive abrasion can still cause minor pilling over time. Reduce friction by washing inside out and avoiding harsh scrubbing. If pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can carefully remove them without damaging the fleece.

Zipper on pockets or main closure snags or sticks.

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper as you operate it. For persistent sticking, a small amount of zipper lubricant (like silicone spray or a graphite pencil rubbed on the teeth) can help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio for effective layering.
  • Quick-drying nature keeps you comfortable during active wear.
  • Durable anti-pill finish maintains appearance over time.
  • Secure zipped pockets protect valuables.
  • Interactive compatibility enhances versatility with other Regatta outerwear.
  • Easy to care for and suitable for customization.

Cons

  • Not inherently windproof; requires an outer shell in windy conditions.
  • Limited water resistance; not suitable as a primary rain layer.
  • May generate static electricity in dry environments.
  • Specific sizing (women's UK 6-22) might not fit all body types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Using your Regatta Professional Thor III Fleece is straightforward: simply wear it as a standalone outer layer in mild conditions or as a mid-layer under a jacket for added warmth. Ensure the fit is comfortable and allows for a full range of motion.

Compatibility

This fleece is designed to be interactive, meaning it can be zipped into certain compatible Regatta Professional outer jackets. Look for Regatta Professional shell jackets with an 'interactive' feature or zipper system to maximize its layering potential. This allows you to create a customizable, insulated jacket system.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and performance of your fleece. Follow these guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash cold (30C) with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle and a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fabric's wicking properties and contribute to pilling.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Due to its quick-drying polyester material, it will dry relatively fast. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fibers.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. Fleece material can be damaged by direct heat.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach. This can weaken the fabric and affect its color.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure it's clean and completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
