FAQs
What is Symmetry Fleece?
Symmetry Fleece is a specific type of polyester fleece material used by Regatta. It is known for being soft, lightweight, warm, and resistant to pilling, making it ideal for activewear.
How do I know what size to order?
Please refer to the size guide provided by the retailer for specific measurements. The fleece is listed for kids' sizes, such as 7-8 years.
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, the Regatta Frankie Full Zip Fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth and comfort as a mid-layer or standalone piece in dry conditions, but it will not protect against rain.
Can this fleece be worn by boys and girls?
Yes, the design is unisex and suitable for children of all genders.
How should I clean the fleece to prevent bobbling?
Wash at a low temperature (30-40°C) on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. It's best to tumble dry on low heat or air dry and avoid ironing.
What are the benefits of the zipped pockets?
The zipped pockets provide secure storage for small items like keys, coins, or a small toy, preventing them from falling out during active play.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter weather?
This fleece offers good warmth for moderate cold and is excellent for layering. For very cold or harsh winter conditions, it would be best used as a mid-layer beneath a more protective outer jacket.
Troubleshooting
Fleece not zipped smoothly
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the zipper up and down, and if necessary, use a pencil lead or wax crayon on the teeth to lubricate them.
Pilling (bobbling) after washing
Although the fleece is designed to be anti-pill, excessive friction or harsh washing can sometimes cause minor pilling. Try washing inside out with similar items and avoid overcrowding the washing machine. Use a fabric shaver for any minor pills that appear.
Fleece feels less warm
Check for any damage to the fabric or seams. Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce insulating properties. Consider if the weather conditions require a heavier layer or an additional insulating layer underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
The Regatta Frankie Full Zip Fleece requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.
Compatibility:
This fleece is designed as an outerwear or mid-layer garment. It pairs well with t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, and can be worn under jackets or coats for added insulation.
Care Instructions:
To maintain the quality and longevity of the fleece:
- Washing: Machine washable. Wash at a low temperature (typically 30°C or 40°C) on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fleece's effectiveness and anti-pill properties over time.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, hang to air dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators, which can damage the fabric.
- Ironing: This fleece is generally not intended for ironing. If necessary, use a very cool setting and iron on the reverse side, being careful not to melt the fabric.
