Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Newhill Hooded women's fleece is designed for adult females seeking a warm, stylish, and practical layer for cooler weather. Its key benefit is providing cozy warmth with a marl knit-effect fabric and a snug fit, making it ideal for casual hikes or everyday wear. A potential caveat is that while warm, it may not be sufficient as a primary outer layer in very cold or wet conditions. Key features include a marl knit-effect fabric for warmth, a grown-on hood for extra coverage, stretch binding for a snug fit, and zipped pockets for secure storage.

FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Newhill Hooded fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth and is best used as a mid-layer or for protection against cool, dry weather. For wet conditions, it should be worn under a waterproof outer layer.

What is the main benefit of the marl knit-effect fabric?

The marl knit-effect fabric provides a visually appealing textured look while efficiently trapping air to provide warmth and comfort.

Can I wear this as my only layer in winter?

While the fleece offers good warmth, it is typically recommended as a mid-layer during winter. For colder temperatures, consider layering it with a thermal base layer and a windproof or waterproof outer jacket.

How does the stretch binding contribute to the fit?

The stretch binding on the hood and cuffs creates a snug fit that helps to seal out drafts and ensures the garment stays comfortably in place during activity.

What type of activities is this fleece best suited for?

This fleece is ideal for casual hikes, everyday wear, outdoor walks, and as a comfortable layering piece in cooler weather.

Are there other color options available for this model?

Yes, the Newhill Hooded Fleece is available in a range of colors, though specific availability may vary.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the fleece is clean, as dirt and oils can mat the fibers and reduce insulation. Avoid using fabric softener, which can also degrade warmth.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to help it glide smoothly.

Pilling has occurred on the fabric surface.

Pilling is a common occurrence with fleece. You can carefully remove small pills with a fabric shaver or a pair of small scissors. Avoid excessive rubbing during washing and wear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers excellent warmth for its weight.
  • Stylish marl knit-effect fabric.
  • Practical features like a hood and zipped pockets.
  • Comfortable with a soft brushed backing.
  • Durable construction for everyday use.

Cons

  • May not be waterproof or windproof enough for harsh weather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This fleece requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: The Regatta Newhill Hooded fleece is designed as women's apparel and is ideal for layering with other clothing items such as t-shirts, base layers, or under a waterproof jacket.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) with similar colors.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fleece's insulating properties.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. The material does not typically require it, and heat can damage the fibers.
