FAQs

What age group is this fleece intended for?

This specific listing is for the Regatta Frankie Full Zip Fleece in size 5-6 Years, which is categorized for kids.

How should I wash the fleece?

Machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius with similar colours, wash inside out, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not bleach or iron on a high setting.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Frankie fleece is made from polyester fleece and is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and breathability and can be layered under a waterproof jacket.

What does 'anti-pill' mean?

Anti-pill means the fabric is treated to resist the formation of small balls (pills) on the surface, helping the garment maintain its smooth appearance and feel over time, even with regular wear and washing.

Can the pockets be securely closed?

Yes, the fleece features two lower zipped pockets and one zipped chest pocket, providing secure closure for small items.

What is the material of the fleece?

The fleece is made from 100% polyester Symmetry fleece, which is 170gsm, 1 side brushed, and 1 side anti-pill.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

This fleece provides good warmth for cooler days and is excellent for layering. For extremely cold or harsh winter conditions, it may be best used as a mid-layer under a heavier, more insulated jacket.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears to be shrinking after washing

Ensure you are washing at the recommended 40 degrees Celsius and using a low heat setting for tumble drying. Avoid high heat settings which can cause shrinkage.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) rubbed on the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.

Pilling has started to appear

While the fleece is designed to resist pilling, excessive friction or improper washing can still cause it. Ensure you are washing inside out and avoiding abrasive materials. If minor pilling occurs, a fabric shaver can often remove it.

Fleece doesn't feel warm enough

This fleece is designed for moderate warmth and layering. For colder conditions, consider wearing it as a mid-layer under a more insulated or waterproof outer jacket.
