FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Regatta Frankie Borg is made of polyester fleece and is not waterproof or water-resistant.

Can I tumble dry this fleece?

It is best to avoid tumble drying to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers; air drying is highly recommended.

How should I size this garment?

The fleece features a relaxed longline fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, consider your standard size, or size down if you prefer a tighter fit.

Is the material heavy?

At 280gsm, it is a mid-to-heavyweight fleece, providing substantial warmth without feeling overly burdensome.

Can I wear this under a rain jacket?

Yes, provided your rain jacket has a loose enough fit to accommodate the volume of the borg fleece without restricting your movement.

Troubleshooting

Borg fabric appearing matted after washing

Once the garment is dry, gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristle garment brush to help restore the loft and softness of the pile.

Pilling or bobbling on the surface

Pilling is common in synthetic fleece. Use a fabric shaver specifically designed for delicate textiles to remove surface lint.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally soft and comfortable borg fleece material
  • Longline design offers increased coverage
  • Stylish look suitable for both outdoors and casual settings
  • Easy to layer over base garments
  • Secure side pockets for convenience

Cons

  • Not intended for high-sweat activities due to heat retention
  • Polyester fabric is not windproof
  • Longline fit may restrict mobility during certain climbing or athletic movements

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your fleece in optimal condition, wash it on a gentle cycle with similar colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can mat the borg pile and reduce the fleece's insulating properties. Air drying is recommended to maintain the softness of the material. When layering, this fleece pairs exceptionally well with fitted thermal base layers, as the generous cut of the torso allows for comfort without feeling bulky. It is compatible with most standard outerwear, provided your shell jacket has sufficient room in the sleeves and chest to accommodate the 280gsm fabric density.
