Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Professional Full Zip Fleece Jacket in Grey is designed for adult males seeking durable and comfortable outerwear for work or casual use. Its primary benefit is the warm, anti-pill Symmetry Fleece fabric providing excellent insulation. A potential consideration is its suitability primarily as a layering piece rather than a standalone waterproof jacket. Key features include robust twin-needle stitching, a full zip fastening with a branded pull, two zip-fastening front pockets, and an adjustable drawcord hem.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Regatta Professional Full Zip Fleece Jacket is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth and is suitable for dry conditions or as a layer under waterproof outerwear.
What is the weight of the fleece fabric?
The fleece fabric used is 350gsm (grams per square meter), which indicates a medium to heavy weight fleece providing good insulation.
How do I find the right size?
Refer to the specific size chart provided with the product listing. Measure your chest circumference and compare it to the available sizes (XS to 4XL) to ensure the best fit.
Can I wear this jacket in the rain?
It is not recommended to wear this jacket as protection against rain. While it may offer some minor resistance, it is not waterproof and will become saturated in wet conditions.
How should I care for the jacket to prevent pilling?
Wash at 40°C, preferably inside out, and avoid tumble drying on high heat. Using a fabric shaver can help manage any minor pilling that might occur over time.
Does the jacket have an inner lining?
The product description does not specify an inner lining; it is made from 100% Polyester Symmetry Fleece fabric.
What type of pockets does it have?
It features two front pockets that are secured with zippers, providing safe storage for personal items.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. If stiffness persists, apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.
Fleece appears to be pilling or 'bobbling'.
While the Symmetry Fleece is anti-pill, initial pilling can sometimes occur. This can often be removed with a fabric shaver. Ensure you follow the recommended washing instructions, including washing inside out and avoiding abrasive materials.
Drawcord at the hem is tangled.
Carefully use a safety pin or a small paperclip to thread the drawcord back through the hem channel. Avoid pulling too forcefully.
Jacket feels too tight or too loose.
Consult the product's size chart for accurate measurements before purchasing. The adjustable drawcord hem can help to slightly tighten the fit around the waist to reduce drafts.
