FAQs

What age group is this fleece designed for?

This particular Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece is designed for children aged 7-8 years. Other sizes are available in the Regatta Junior Brigade II range.

Is the fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth, wick moisture, and dry quickly. For rain protection, it should be worn with a waterproof outer shell.

How should I wash this fleece?

Machine wash at 30°C or 40°C on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softener, and do not bleach, iron, or dry clean. Tumble dry on low heat or line dry.

What is 'Layer Lite' technology?

Layer Lite technology refers to the fabric's properties that make it quick-drying, easy to care for, and provide good wicking performance, ensuring comfort and convenience for the wearer.

Can this fleece be worn as an outer jacket?

Yes, in mild, dry conditions, it can be worn as an outer layer. However, for windy or wet weather, it is recommended to pair it with a windproof or waterproof outer jacket.

Are the pockets suitable for storing small items?

Yes, the two lower fleece pockets are perfect for keeping little hands warm or for securely storing small, lightweight items like tissues or small toys.

Troubleshooting

My child feels cold even with the fleece on.

Ensure the fleece is properly layered. It performs best as a mid-layer. Add a suitable base layer underneath and a windproof/waterproof outer layer if needed for colder or windy conditions.

The fleece feels damp inside after light activity or a slight drizzle.

The fleece has good wicking and quick-drying properties, but it is not waterproof. For rain protection, wear a waterproof jacket over the fleece. Its wicking function helps move sweat away from the body to dry quickly.

The zipper snags or is difficult to move.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Try gently moving the slider up and down to free it. Ensure the fleece is laid flat when zipping up. If the issue persists, inspect the zipper for any damage to the teeth.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent for layering in various conditions

  • Features practical pockets for hands or small items
  • Durable and easy to care for
  • Comfortable design with chin guard

Cons

  • Not waterproof (designed for warmth and wicking, not rain protection)

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Regatta Junior Brigade II Fleece requires no special setup. Its design allows for broad compatibility with various clothing systems and uses.

  • Setup: Simply put on and zip up. No complex setup or adjustments needed.
  • Compatibility: This fleece is designed as a versatile layering piece.
  • Base Layer: Wear it over a thin t-shirt or thermal base layer for added warmth and moisture management.
  • Outer Layer: In dry, mild conditions, it can be worn as a standalone outer layer.
  • Shell Jacket: For wet or windy conditions, combine it with a waterproof and windproof outer shell for comprehensive protection.
  • Care: To maintain the fleece's performance and longevity:
  1. Washing: Machine wash at `30°C` or `40°C` with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can block the fleece fibers and reduce wicking performance.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or, preferably, line dry. The `quick-drying` nature of the fabric means it won't take long to air dry. Avoid direct high heat.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron.
  5. Bleaching/Dry Cleaning: Do not bleach or dry clean.
