FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Junior Brigade II Full Zip Fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to be `quick-drying` and offers `good wicking performance` to manage moisture, making it suitable for light drizzles or drying quickly after getting wet, but it won't protect against heavy rain.

What material is the fleece made from?

The fleece is crafted from `100% Polyester 170 Series Microfleece`, providing lightweight warmth and durability.

Can my child wear this fleece as an outer jacket?

Yes, in mild to cool weather, it can be worn as an outer layer. However, for colder temperatures or wet conditions, it functions best as a `mid-layer` under a waterproof or insulated jacket for optimal warmth and protection.

How do I determine the correct size?

This particular variant is for `5-6 Years`. Refer to Regatta's official size guide for more detailed measurements to ensure the best fit for your child.

Does it have pockets?

Yes, the fleece features `two lower fleece pockets` that are perfect for keeping little hands warm or carrying small items.

How should I wash this fleece?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Do not use fabric softener, bleach, or iron. Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, air dry to preserve its qualities.

What is 'Layer Lite Technology'?

Layer Lite Technology refers to the fleece's design as an integral part of a layering system. It's lightweight and cut to fit comfortably under other garments, allowing children to adapt their clothing for changing weather conditions by adding or removing layers efficiently.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels damp or less warm after activity.

This fleece has good wicking and quick-drying properties. Ensure the child isn't wearing a cotton base layer underneath, which can absorb moisture and stay wet. Allow the fleece to air dry fully after use, or tumble dry on low heat.

Zipper snags or gets stuck.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper as you try to move the slider. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can damage it. Ensure the `chin guard` is properly positioned to prevent snags.

Fleece appears flattened or matted after washing.

This can happen if washed with too much friction or dried on high heat. Wash on a gentle cycle, avoid overloading the washing machine, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry to help maintain the fleece's loft.

Pockets feel stretched out or items fall out easily.

Avoid overfilling the pockets with heavy or bulky items. The `two lower fleece pockets` are designed for small, light essentials or keeping hands warm. If they become stretched, a gentle wash and dry might help them regain some shape.

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. A gentle cycle is recommended to preserve the fleece fibers.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the fleece fibers, reducing its wicking properties and breathability.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, air dry. The fleece is `quick-drying`, so it won't take long to hang dry. Avoid high heat as it can damage the polyester fibers.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can melt or damage the fleece material.
