FAQs

What is the primary use of this fleece top?

The Regatta Thompson Half Zip Fleece Top is designed primarily as a comfortable and warm mid-layer for outdoor activities or casual wear. It provides insulation under a jacket or can be worn on its own in milder conditions.

What does '170gsm' mean?

GSM stands for 'grams per square meter,' which is a measure of fabric density and weight. 170gsm indicates a lightweight fleece that offers warmth without being overly bulky.

How should I determine my size?

Please refer to the size guide provided in the product description. It lists chest measurements in inches for each size (XS to 5XL) to help you find the best fit.

Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer?

While it offers some protection, it is best suited as a mid-layer. For significant wind or rain, an additional outer shell is recommended.

Is the anti-pill treatment on both sides of the fabric?

No, the product description specifies that the anti-pill treatment is on '1 Side Anti-Pill', meaning it primarily affects the exterior surface of the fleece.

How do I wash and care for the fleece?

You can machine wash it at 40°C, avoid bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a low setting. Do not dry clean.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a low heat setting for tumble drying and ironing. Avoid harsh detergents.

Pilling on the fleece fabric

While designed with an anti-pill finish on one side, excessive friction or rough washing can still cause pilling. Adhere to the recommended washing and drying instructions. If pilling occurs on the reverse side, it is generally less noticeable.

Zip is difficult to move

Gently check for any fabric caught in the zip. If the zip remains stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) can be applied to the teeth to help it glide smoothly.
