Product Information

Full details

The Regatta Frankie men's full zip fleece is designed for adults seeking everyday warmth and comfort. Its key benefit is providing excellent layering for cooler weather, suitable for outdoor activities. A potential caveat is its reliance on polyester, which may not offer the same breathability as natural fibers for high-intensity activities. This fleece is crafted from soft microfleece with durable poplin panels, featuring multiple zipped pockets and stretch binding for a secure fit, making it ideal for countryside walks or casual weekend wear.

FAQs

What type of activities is this fleece best suited for?

The Regatta Frankie fleece is best suited for everyday wear, casual outings, countryside walks, and as a layering piece for moderate outdoor activities in cool or cold weather.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart, usually available on the product page or the manufacturer's website. It's recommended to measure your chest and waist and compare them to the provided measurements.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is not waterproof. It is designed to provide warmth and comfort and can offer some resistance to light wind and drizzle due to the poplin panels, but it is not a substitute for a waterproof outer layer.

Can I wear this in very cold weather?

Yes, it can be worn in very cold weather when layered appropriately. It functions well as a mid-layer over thermal base layers and under a windproof or waterproof jacket for optimal insulation.

What is the material composition?

The main body is made from 70% polyester/30% polyester micro fleece fabric (210 gsm), and the panels are 63% polyester/37% polyester micro poplin with a PA coating (84 gsm).

How many pockets does it have?

It features two zipped lower pockets and one zipped chest pocket, providing a total of three secure storage options.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and not overloading the washing machine. Avoid using fabric softener, which can affect fleece texture. Air drying or low tumble dry is recommended.

Zips are difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zip. Gently try to clear the obstruction. If the zip is still stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) rubbed on the teeth can help lubricate it.

Pilling on the fabric surface

Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. To minimize it, wash the fleece inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid abrasive contact with other garments. A fabric shaver can be used to gently remove surface pills.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides good warmth for its weight.
  • Multiple zipped pockets offer secure storage.
  • Durable construction suitable for regular use.
  • Comfortable microfleece material.
  • Full zip allows for easy ventilation control.

Cons

  • Primarily polyester, which may be less breathable than natural fibers during high exertion.
  • Can be less water-resistant than specialized outdoor shells.
  • Style might be too casual for some formal settings.
  • May pill over time with heavy use, typical of fleece.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: As a garment, the Regatta Frankie fleece requires no setup. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility: This fleece is designed as a piece of apparel suitable for adult males. It can be worn over base layers or t-shirts and under jackets or waterproof shells.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash at 30°C (86°F) on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators.
  • Ironing: Do not iron. If creases are present after washing, a light steam may be used cautiously on a low setting if absolutely necessary, but avoid direct contact with the fabric surface.
  • Bleaching: Do not bleach or use harsh chemical cleaners.
