FAQs
What material is the Regatta Frankie Half Zip Fleece made of?
The main body is made from 70% polyester/30% polyester microfleece fabric (210 gsm), with 63% polyester/37% polyester micro poplin panels (84 gsm) with a PA coating.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It is designed as a mid-layer for warmth and comfort. For very cold conditions, it is best worn with appropriate base layers and a protective outer shell.
How do I wash the fleece?
Wash according to the care label instructions, typically on a gentle cycle at 30°C or 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or line dry.
Does it have pockets?
Yes, it features one zipped chest pocket for secure storage of small items.
What does 'half zip' mean?
A half zip means the zipper extends about halfway down the front of the garment, typically to the chest area, allowing for adjustable ventilation.
What is the purpose of the poplin panels?
The tough poplin panels are strategically placed to provide extra protection and durability in areas that experience more wear and tear.
What is the weight of the fabric?
The microfleece is 210 gsm, and the micro poplin is 84 gsm.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels stiff after washing
Avoid using fabric softener. Consider a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and air dry. If machine drying, use a low heat setting.
Zipper is difficult to move
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it back and forth. A small amount of graphite from a pencil or a tiny bit of wax can help lubricate the teeth.
Garment is not warm enough
This fleece is designed as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, consider adding a warmer base layer underneath or a more insulated outer layer on top.
