FAQs

What is the primary purpose of this fleece?

The Regatta Newhill Fleece is designed as a warm and comfortable mid-layer for outdoor activities and casual wear in cool conditions.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and breathability and would require a waterproof outer layer for protection against rain.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. The fleece is designed for a comfortable fit, allowing for base layers underneath.

Can this fleece be worn in very cold weather?

It provides good warmth as a mid-layer, but for extremely cold or harsh conditions, it should be worn in conjunction with a suitable base layer and a windproof/waterproof outer shell.

What does 'made with recycled content' mean?

This indicates that a portion of the materials used to create the fleece has been sourced from recycled sources, contributing to environmental sustainability.

Are the pockets secure?

Yes, the two lower pockets feature zippers, providing secure storage for small items like keys, a phone, or a wallet.

How should I wash this fleece?

Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Consider wearing thinner layers underneath if needed.

Zipper is sticking

Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Check for any fabric caught in the teeth. Lubricate with a graphite pencil lead or wax if necessary.

Fleece losing its softness after washing

Avoid using fabric softener, as it can reduce the fleece's loft. Wash with similar colours and tumble dry on a low setting.
