Regatta Newhill Fleece Blue - Size: 8

It is best suited for moderate outdoor activities like walking, light hiking, and commuting in cool weather, as well as for casual everyday wear.

No, the Regatta Newhill fleece is not waterproof. It is designed for warmth and breathability and should be paired with a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for women's apparel. This specific item is listed as Size 8.

While it provides good warmth, it is best used as a mid-layer for winter. For very cold conditions, an additional insulated or waterproof outer layer is recommended.

Wash on a cool cycle with mild detergent, avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and do not tumble dry. Air drying and ironing on a low heat will help maintain its feel.

Brushed backing refers to the process of treating the inside surface of the fleece to make it softer and warmer, providing a more comfortable feel against the skin.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can affect fleece texture. Re-wash on a gentle cycle if necessary.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. A small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the teeth can help smooth the zipper's action.

Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece over time. To minimize, wash inside out and avoid abrasive contact with other garments. Use a fabric shaver for gentle removal.
