Product Information
Full details
The Regatta Frankie Borg Fleece is designed for adults seeking reliable warmth and comfort during casual outdoor activities, travel, or everyday wear. Crafted from soft, high-pile borg fleece, it provides excellent insulation in a relaxed fit that layers effortlessly over base or mid-layers. While its thermal properties are ideal for chilly days, the material is best suited for dry conditions, as it is not designed to be waterproof or windproof on its own.

FAQs
Is the Frankie Borg fleece waterproof?
No, this fleece is designed for warmth and insulation, not for rain protection. It should be layered under a waterproof shell in wet conditions.
Can I wear this while hiking?
Yes, it is excellent for hiking in dry, cool conditions as a mid-layer or outer layer, thanks to its breathable and warm material.
How should I clean the zipper if it sticks?
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. You can lightly lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil tip to improve movement.
Is the fit true to size?
The Frankie Borg fleece features a relaxed fit. If you prefer a more tailored look for layering, you may want to check the sizing chart, though most users find it fits true to standard sizes.
Does it have an adjustable hem?
It features stretch binding on the hem rather than a drawcord, which provides a secure, elastic fit without adding bulk.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels matted or less soft after washing
Avoid fabric softeners and use a gentle cycle; gently brush the pile with a soft-bristled brush once dry to restore fluffiness.
Static buildup on the fabric
Lightly mist the garment with water or use a static-reduction spray, or ensure your inner base layer is made of natural fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your fleece, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can mat the fleece fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting to prevent damage to the synthetic material.
- Layering Compatibility: This garment is designed to work well as part of a layering system. Pair it with a moisture-wicking base layer for maximum performance in cold conditions.
- Storage: Hang the garment when not in use to maintain its shape, or fold it neatly in a dry, ventilated space.
