FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this fleece top?
This fleece top is designed as a versatile mid-layer for warmth and comfort during outdoor activities or for casual everyday wear. Its lightweight and breathable design makes it suitable for layering.
Is this fleece top waterproof?
No, this fleece top is made from 100% polyester fleece and is not waterproof or significantly water-resistant. It is designed for warmth and breathability, and would need to be worn under a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.
How should I determine my size?
The product specifies that Size M corresponds to a 40-inch waist. It is recommended to consult general sizing charts for Regatta apparel if further guidance is needed.
Can I wear this in very cold weather?
As a mid-layer, it provides warmth. For very cold conditions, it is recommended to layer this fleece over a base layer and wear a windproof or waterproof outer jacket.
How do I wash and care for the fleece?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, do not bleach, tumble dry on low heat, and do not iron or dry clean. Washing inside out can help preserve the fabric's appearance.
What does '170gsm' refer to?
GSM stands for grams per square meter, which is a measure of fabric density. 170gsm indicates a lightweight fleece, offering a good balance between warmth and breathability.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and avoiding harsh detergents. Tumble drying on a low heat setting can help restore softness.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can also help lubricate the zipper.
Pilling is appearing on the fabric surface
While the fleece has an anti-pill finish, excessive friction or harsh washing can sometimes cause minor pilling. Ensure the garment is washed inside out on a gentle cycle, and avoid washing with abrasive items.
