FAQs
What is the main purpose of the Regatta Hartside hoodie?
The Regatta Hartside hoodie is designed as a comfortable and durable mid-layer for outdoor activities like hiking, offering warmth and ease of movement.
What material is the hoodie made from?
It is made from a durable polyester fleece with added elastane for comfort and stretch.
Can this hoodie be worn as an outer layer in rain?
It is best suited as a mid-layer. While it offers some protection against light wind, it is not waterproof and should be worn under a waterproof jacket in wet conditions.
How should I wash the hoodie?
Machine wash at a cool temperature (e.g., 30°C or 40°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Does it have adjustable features like the hood or cuffs?
The hoodie features a fixed hood and typically has standard cuffs. It does not have adjustable drawstrings or toggles on the hood.
What kind of activities is this hoodie best suited for?
It is ideal for relaxing hikes, casual outdoor activities, and as everyday comfortable wear. It is designed for comfort rather than high-intensity, technical performance.
Is the sizing true to fit?
Sizing generally follows standard women's UK dress sizes. It's recommended to check the brand's specific size chart for the most accurate fit.
Troubleshooting
Fleece pilling after washing
This is common with fleece. To minimize it, wash inside out on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid high heat drying and excessive rubbing.
Reduced warmth or breathability
Fabric softeners can clog fleece fibers. Ensure you are not using fabric softener during washing. Wash with a mild detergent only.
Stitching coming undone
If minor, you can carefully re-stitch the area with a strong thread. For significant damage, contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the fleece's softness and durability:
- Washing: Machine wash at a cool temperature (e.g., 30°C or 40°C) on a gentle cycle.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fleece's wicking and insulating properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to air dry. Avoid high heat, which can damage the fabric.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting. Avoid direct contact with prints or embellishments.
