FAQs
Is the Regatta Frankie Borg bodywarmer windproof?
No, it is designed for warmth and insulation, not as a barrier against heavy wind.
Does this garment have a zipper?
No, this design is an open-front style for easy layering.
How should I wash it?
Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colors.
Is it suitable for hiking?
Yes, it is excellent for hiking as it provides core warmth without restricting arm movement.
What is borg fabric?
Borg is a synthetic, high-pile fleece designed to mimic the texture of sheep's wool, providing softness and heat retention.
Can I wear this over a thick sweater?
Yes, the stretch bindings at the armholes are designed to accommodate layers underneath.
Troubleshooting
Borg fleece looks matted or flat after washing.
Once dry, gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristled clothes brush to fluff up the fibers.
Elastic bindings feel loose.
Avoid high heat in the dryer, as this can degrade the elasticity of the synthetic trim over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your borg fleece, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle using mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can flatten the borg pile.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material shrinkage or damage to the elasticated bindings.
- Storage: Hang the garment when not in use to maintain its shape, rather than folding it in a way that compresses the fleece fibers.
- Compatibility: It is designed to be worn over standard-fit long-sleeve shirts, turtlenecks, or light sweaters. Due to its sleeveless nature, it layers effectively under heavier waterproof shells during rain or high-wind conditions.
