FAQs

What is SYMMETRY fleece?

SYMMETRY fleece is a type of polyester fabric developed by Regatta, known for being quick-drying, easy to care for, and featuring an anti-pill finish for durability.

Is this fleece suitable for winter?

As a lightweight fleece, it's excellent as a mid-layer for winter, providing warmth when worn under a heavier coat. For milder conditions, it can serve as an outer layer.

How should I wash the fleece?

Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid ironing and dry cleaning.

What does 'anti-pill' mean?

Anti-pill means the fabric is treated or constructed to resist the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the surface, maintaining a smoother appearance over time.

Can I wear this as a standalone jacket?

Yes, for mild to cool weather conditions. For colder or wet weather, it is best used as a layering piece under a waterproof or insulated outer jacket.

What is the weight of the fleece?

The fleece is 170 gsm (grams per square meter), indicating a relatively lightweight fabric.

What is the material composition?

The fabric is composed of 80% Polyester and 20% Reclaimed Polyester.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the fleece is layered appropriately. For colder conditions, add a more insulating outer layer or a thermal base layer underneath.

Fabric appears pilled after washing.

While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, ensure washing machine settings are not overly harsh. Avoid washing with abrasive materials. Check care label for specific wash cycle recommendations.

Zip is difficult to move.

Gently pull the fabric around the zip to ensure it's not caught. If the zip is stiff, a small amount of wax or lubricant designed for zippers can be applied cautiously.
