FAQs

What material is the Regatta Frankie Half Zip fleece made from?

The fleece is made from 70% Polyester and 30% Recycled Polyester, providing a soft feel and lightweight warmth.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

This fleece provides lightweight warmth and is best suited for moderate temperatures or as a mid-layer in colder conditions. For extreme cold, additional layers or a heavier outer garment would be necessary.

How should I wash the fleece?

The fleece is fully machine washable. Always check the care label for specific instructions, but generally, a cool wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors is recommended. Avoid fabric softeners.

Can I put this fleece in the dryer?

It is best to air dry the fleece to maintain its quality. If using a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting only.

What are the benefits of the raglan sleeves?

Raglan sleeves are cut to run diagonally from the underarm to the shoulder, offering greater flexibility and freedom of movement compared to traditional set-in sleeves.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the fleece features zipped pockets, providing secure storage for your essentials.

What does 'half zip' mean?

A half zip indicates that the garment has a zipper that extends only halfway down the front, typically to the chest area, allowing for adjustable ventilation.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm after several washes.

Avoid using fabric softener during washing, as it can coat the fleece fibers and reduce their insulating ability. Ensure the fleece is properly dried according to care instructions.

Zipper is difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away. Lubricate the zipper teeth with a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant if needed.

Pilling has occurred on the fabric surface.

Pilling is a common occurrence with fleece. To minimize it, wash the garment inside out on a gentle cycle. You can use a fabric shaver to carefully remove small pills.

Fit is not as expected.

Refer to the sizing chart for Regatta apparel. Consider the intended use; this fleece is designed for a comfortable, potentially relaxed fit suitable for layering. If between sizes, consider sizing up for a looser fit or down for a snugger fit.

Cons

  • May not provide sufficient warmth for very cold or harsh weather conditions on its own.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a ready-to-wear garment, requiring no setup. Ensure it is unzipped partially or fully before putting it on for ease of use.

Compatibility: The Regatta Frankie Half Zip fleece is designed for general adult female wear and layers well with various casual outfits, including t-shirts, long-sleeved tops, and jeans. It is intended to be worn as an outer layer in mild conditions or as a mid-layer under heavier outerwear like jackets or parkas.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Fully machine washable. Follow the specific instructions on the care label attached to the garment.
  • Detergent: Use a standard laundry detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fleece's insulating properties over time.
  • Drying: It is generally recommended to air dry the fleece to maintain its shape and material integrity. If using a tumble dryer, use a low heat setting.
  • Ironing: Ironing is typically not required. If necessary, use a cool setting and avoid direct contact with high heat.
