Product Information

Full details

This Regatta Frankie Full Zip Fleece is designed for active kids who need a warm and comfortable layer for outdoor play and cooler days. Its key benefit is providing excellent warmth and durability with a soft feel that resists bobbling. A potential consideration is its primary use as a mid-layer, meaning it may not be sufficient as an outer layer in very harsh weather. This fleece features soft Symmetry fleece fabric, multiple zipped pockets for securing essentials, and stretch binding for a snug fit.

FAQs

What is the primary material of this fleece?

The fleece is made from 100% polyester Symmetry fleece, which is 170gsm, brushed on one side and anti-pill on the other.

How many pockets does the fleece have and are they secure?

Yes, it has three pockets: two lower pockets and one chest pocket, all of which are secured with zippers.

Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter weather?

The fleece provides good warmth as a mid-layer. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer it with a thermal base layer and a windproof or waterproof outer jacket.

How should I care for the Regatta Frankie fleece?

Machine wash at 40°C with similar colours, do not bleach, and tumble dry on a low setting. Do not iron or dry clean.

What does 'anti-pill' mean for the fabric?

'Anti-pill' means the fabric is treated or constructed in a way that resists the formation of small balls or 'pills' on the surface, helping the fleece retain its smooth appearance over time.

Can this fleece be worn by boys and girls?

Yes, the fleece is designed as unisex and is suitable for any child.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears to be pilling (bobbling)

While the Symmetry fleece is designed to resist bobbling, excessive friction or harsh washing can sometimes contribute. Ensure you are washing with similar fabrics and avoid overloading the washing machine. Gentle tumble drying on low heat can also help maintain the fabric's texture.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. If the zipper still feels stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) rubbed onto the teeth can help lubricate it.

Fleece feels less warm than expected

This fleece is designed as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, consider layering it over a thermal base layer and/or under a windproof or waterproof outer shell. Ensure the cuffs and hem are snug to prevent drafts.
