FAQs
What is the primary purpose of the Regatta Montes fleece?
Its primary purpose is to serve as a lightweight, hardwearing midlayer for outdoor activities, providing warmth without bulk.
What activities is this fleece best suited for?
It is well-suited for running, hiking, and general outdoor activities where temperature regulation is beneficial.
Can this fleece be worn as an outer layer?
It can be worn as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions. However, it is primarily designed as a midlayer and may not offer sufficient protection against wind or rain.
What material is the fleece made from?
The fleece is made from 140gsm mini stripe microfleece, which is 100% polyester.
How should I clean the fleece?
Machine wash at 40°C, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and do not iron or dry clean.
What does '140gsm' refer to?
GSM stands for grams per square meter, indicating the fabric's weight. 140gsm means it is a relatively lightweight fleece.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
As a midlayer, it contributes to warmth in cold weather. For very cold conditions, it should be worn with appropriate base layers and a protective outer shell.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels too tight or too loose
Refer to the size chart for accurate measurements. The Montes fleece is designed for a specific fit as a midlayer; consider a larger size if you prefer more room or intend to wear thicker base layers underneath.
Zippers stick or are difficult to move
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is clear. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth. Avoid excessive force.
Fleece loses its warmth over time
Ensure the fleece is washed according to care instructions. Over time, pilling or matting can reduce insulating properties. Gentle washing and occasional fluffing (if machine washable) can help maintain its loft.
