FAQs
Is this gilet waterproof?
No, the Regatta Frankie Gilet is designed for warmth and comfort. While it has durable poplin overlays with a PA coating for some protection, it is not waterproof and is best suited for cool, dry conditions.
What material is the gilet made of?
The gilet is made from a combination of soft microfleece (70% polyester/30% polyester) and durable micro poplin overlays (63% polyester/37% polyester) with a PA coating.
Can I wear this in the rain?
It offers some protection against light moisture due to the PA coating on the overlays, but it is not designed for heavy rain. It is recommended to wear a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.
How should I clean the gilet?
You can machine wash the gilet at 40°C and tumble dry on a low heat setting. Avoid bleaching, ironing, and dry cleaning.
What are the dimensions of the zipped pockets?
Specific dimensions for the pockets are not provided, but they are designed to hold everyday essentials like keys, a phone, or a wallet securely.
Is this gilet suitable for very cold weather?
It provides good warmth for cool weather and can be layered with other clothing for colder conditions. For extreme cold, additional insulation or a heavy winter coat would be necessary.
What does 'gsm' mean?
GSM stands for 'grams per square meter', which is a measure of fabric density and weight. Higher GSM typically indicates a thicker, warmer fabric.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently rub a pencil lead along the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper slider.
Fleece feels matted after washing
Ensure the gilet is tumble dried on a low heat setting. Avoid high heat which can damage the fleece fibers.
Sizing feels incorrect
Refer to the Regatta sizing chart for accurate measurements. Ensure you are measuring your chest circumference correctly.
