Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie Borg Half Zip Fleece is designed for adult men seeking lightweight, reliable insulation for everyday outdoor activities like walking, hiking, or commuting. Featuring a soft, high-pile borg fleece construction, it offers excellent warmth-to-weight comfort that layers seamlessly under a shell or over a base layer. While it provides exceptional cozy insulation for transitional weather, potential users should note that the polyester material lacks integrated weatherproofing, meaning it will require an additional waterproof layer during heavy rain or wind.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

No, the Frankie Borg fleece is highly breathable but is not windproof. It is intended to be used as a mid-layer under a windproof or waterproof outer shell in harsh conditions.

Can I wear this in the rain?

The fleece material will absorb moisture. It should be worn as a mid-layer under a waterproof jacket if you expect rain.

Is the fabric itchy against the skin?

No, the borg fleece is designed to be soft and comfortable. The flatlock stitching also ensures that seams do not rub against the skin.

How do I determine my size?

The garment follows standard generic sizing (e.g., M). Refer to your usual size, as the cut is designed to fit over base layers.

Does it have pockets for my hands?

No, this specific model features a single zipped chest pocket, but it does not include hand-warmer side pockets.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less soft after several washes

This is often caused by laundry detergent buildup. Try an extra rinse cycle or use a smaller amount of mild detergent.

Visible pilling on the fabric surface

Pilling is common with fleece fabrics. Use a fabric shaver or a dedicated pilling comb to gently remove surface fuzz.

Zip feels stiff or sticks

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it persists, use a dry graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant on the teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment is designed for a standard fit suitable for casual or active wear. To ensure the fleece retains its softness and integrity over time, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at a low temperature (30°C or 40°C) with similar colors.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent; avoid using fabric softeners as they can clog the fibers and reduce the fleece's breathability and moisture-wicking capability.
  3. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. Avoid high-heat tumble drying, as this can melt or damage the polyester pile.
  4. Storage: Hang the garment when not in use to maintain its shape, or fold neatly to avoid compressing the pile for long periods.
