Full details
This Regatta Frankie kids fleece is designed for young, active children, offering warmth and comfort for outdoor adventures and everyday layering. Its key benefit is the soft, anti-pilling fleece material that keeps kids cozy without excessive bulk. A potential caveat is that it's a layering piece, so additional protection might be needed in very harsh weather. Key features include durable Symmetry fleece, multiple zipped pockets for securing small items, and stretch binding for a snug fit.

FAQs
What is Symmetry Fleece?
Symmetry Fleece is a type of polyester fleece fabric developed by Regatta. It's known for being lightweight, warm, and soft, with one side brushed for comfort and the other treated to be anti-pill.
Is this fleece waterproof?
No, the Regatta Frankie fleece is not waterproof. It is designed as a warm mid-layer and should be worn under a waterproof outer layer in wet conditions.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Regatta, which typically aligns UK children's sizes. The listed size is UK 9-10 years.
Can this fleece be worn on its own?
Yes, it can be worn on its own in mild or cool weather when rain or strong wind is not a concern. It provides good warmth for its weight.
How do I care for the anti-pill treatment?
To maintain the anti-pill properties, follow the care instructions: wash at 40°C, avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid washing with abrasive materials.
What are the dimensions of the chest pocket?
Specific dimensions for the chest pocket are not provided, but it is designed to hold small items securely.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold winter days?
As a mid-layer, it provides good warmth. For very cold winter days, it should be combined with a warm base layer and a protective, insulated outer jacket.
Troubleshooting
Fleece seems less soft after washing.
Ensure you are not using fabric softener, as this can sometimes affect the texture of fleece. Follow care instructions carefully, especially regarding heat settings for drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Ensure the zipper is clear of fabric and debris. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it persists, a small amount of wax or lip balm applied to the zipper teeth can help improve glide. Always close zippers before washing.
Pilling has started to appear.
While treated to resist pilling, excessive friction can still cause it. Ensure proper washing and drying techniques are followed. Avoid washing with abrasive items.
