FAQs
Is the Regatta Thompson Fleece waterproof?
No, this is a fleece garment designed for thermal insulation and breathability. It is not waterproof and should be paired with a shell in rainy weather.
Can I wash this fleece in a machine?
Yes, it is machine washable. We recommend washing at 30 degrees Celsius and avoiding harsh chemicals or fabric softeners.
What does anti-pilling mean?
It means the fabric is treated to prevent the small balls of fiber (pills) from forming on the surface, keeping the garment looking new for longer.
Is this suitable for winter hiking?
It is an excellent mid-layer for winter hiking, provided it is worn beneath a windproof or waterproof outer layer.
Does the zip neck feature scratch the chin?
The design includes a soft finish to minimize irritation, though it is best to ensure the zip is tucked away if fully closed.
Troubleshooting
Fabric surface showing slight pilling over time.
While the fleece features anti-pilling technology, use a dedicated fabric shaver to gently remove any surface lint caused by friction with backpack straps.
Static buildup in dry conditions.
Avoid over-drying in a tumble dryer and use a small amount of non-scented conditioning spray if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your fleece lasts, follow these care guidelines: Always wash the garment inside out on a cool cycle (30 degrees) to protect the brushed finish. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can coat the fibers and interfere with the moisture-wicking capabilities of the SYMMETRY fleece. Air drying is recommended to maintain the fabric's loft and shape. This garment is highly compatible with standard waterproof walking jackets and technical outdoor base layers.
