Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Bodywarmer is a versatile, lightweight fleece vest designed for women who need core warmth without sacrificing mobility during outdoor activities. Ideal for hikers, travelers, and anyone seeking a comfortable layering piece, this bodywarmer excels in transitional weather; however, it lacks water-resistant outer shielding, making it best suited for dry conditions or under a waterproof shell.

FAQs
Is this bodywarmer waterproof?
No, the fleece material is designed for warmth and breathability rather than water resistance.
Can I wear this under a winter coat?
Yes, its lightweight profile makes it an excellent choice for layering under heavier jackets.
How should I choose the right size?
The garment follows standard UK dress sizing. If you plan on wearing thick layers underneath, you may prefer to size up.
Does it have pockets?
The design focuses on lightweight layering; please check your specific garment's interior/exterior for pocket configuration.
Is the material breathable?
Yes, the fleece is inherently breathable, helping to regulate temperature during physical activity.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appearing matted after washing
Gently brush the fabric with a soft-bristled brush to restore the loft of the fleece fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Frankie Bodywarmer is a pull-on garment. To maintain the integrity of the fleece fabric, machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can break down the insulating properties of the fleece. For the best fit, ensure you select your standard UK dress size; the garment is designed to fit comfortably over standard under-layers. Always air-dry the garment away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent material shrinkage.
