FAQs

What is the material of the Regatta Frankie Fleece?

The fleece is made from 100% Polyester, specifically Symmetry fleece, known for its softness and resistance to bobbling.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?

The fleece provides good insulation and warmth, making it ideal as a mid-layer. For very cold or wet conditions, it is recommended to wear it under a waterproof and windproof outer jacket.

How do I ensure I select the correct size?

This specific variant is for size Kids 5-6 Years. Please refer to Regatta's general sizing guide for children to find the best fit based on your child's measurements.

Can the fleece be worn by both boys and girls?

Yes, the Regatta Frankie Fleece is designed as a unisex garment, suitable for any child.

How should I clean the fleece to maintain its quality?

Machine wash at 30°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Iron on a low setting if needed. Do not dry clean.

What are the benefits of the zipped pockets?

The zipped pockets provide a secure place for children to keep small items like keys, coins, or collected treasures safe while they are playing or on the move.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a gentle detergent and that the garment has been tumble dried on a low heat setting as recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Zipper is difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away and try zipping again. Lubricating the zipper teeth with a pencil graphite or wax can also help.

Pilling or bobbling has appeared.

While designed to resist bobbling, excessive friction can sometimes cause this. Ensure the fleece is washed inside out and avoid washing with rough items like denim. Gentle tumble drying can help reduce pilling.
