Regatta 'Sweetness II' Fleece Gilet - Blue - 16

Symmetry Fleece is Regatta's own fabric technology, designed to be warm, durable, and easy to care for. It typically features a brushed inner for softness and an anti-pill finish on the outer side for longevity.

It is primarily designed as a mid-layer. While it can be worn on its own in mild, dry conditions, it does not offer significant protection against wind or rain and may not be warm enough for very cold weather as a standalone piece.

Refer to the brand's sizing guide for accurate measurements. This gilet is available in women's UK dress sizes, with specific measurements provided for chest, waist, and hip.

No, the 'Sweetness II' Fleece Gilet is not waterproof. It is made from fleece material, which offers some water resistance but will become saturated in prolonged wet conditions.

Machine wash at 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on a low heat. Washing inside out can also help minimize friction and pilling.

The gilet features two lower pockets, suitable for keeping hands warm or storing small personal items.

The main fabric is Symmetry Fleece, composed of 70% polyester and 30% polyester with an anti-pill finish. The overall fabric composition is listed as 80% Polyester and 20% Polyester, referring to specific finishes or treatments.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can sometimes affect fleece texture. Tumble drying on a low setting can help restore softness.

While the fleece is designed to be anti-pill, excessive friction or washing with abrasive items can contribute to pilling. Ensure the garment is washed with similar items and follow care instructions. If minor pilling occurs, it can often be removed with a fabric shaver.

This gilet is designed as a mid-layer. For increased warmth, layer it over a thermal base layer and/or under a windproof or waterproof outer jacket. Consider adding a warmer fleece or insulated jacket if you require more significant insulation.
