FAQs

What age range is this fleece designed for?

This specific fleece is designed for children aged 9-10 years. Other sizes may be available.

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, this fleece is designed for warmth and is not waterproof. It is best suited for dry, chilly conditions or as a mid-layer under a waterproof jacket in wet weather.

Can this be worn as an outer jacket?

Yes, it can be worn as an outer jacket on cool, dry days. For colder or wet conditions, it's recommended to layer it under a waterproof or windproof outer shell.

How do I maintain the reflective properties of the trims?

To maintain reflectivity, keep the trims clean by wiping them gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning methods.

Is the fleece machine washable?

Yes, it is machine washable. Please refer to the 'Care Instructions' section in this guide for detailed washing, drying, and ironing advice to preserve its quality.

What does 'borg fleece' mean?

'Borg fleece' refers to a type of fleece fabric that is typically thicker, fluffier, and has a more textured, sheep-like appearance, designed to offer superior insulation and warmth compared to standard fleece.

Are the pockets big enough for a phone?

The zipped pockets are designed for small essentials like keys, small snacks, or gloves. While they might accommodate a small child's phone, it depends on the phone's size.

Troubleshooting

Fleece doesn't feel as warm as before.

Ensure you are washing it correctly. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying, which can flatten the borg fleece pile. A gentle brush after drying can help restore loft.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Try gently rubbing a pencil lead (graphite) along the zipper teeth to lubricate it. If the issue persists, ensure the zipper is clean from dirt and debris.

Reflective trims appear dull.

Gently wipe the reflective trims with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or grime that might be obscuring their reflective properties. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Pilling (small balls of fiber) is forming on the fleece.

Pilling can occur with fleece, especially in high-friction areas. You can carefully remove pills with a fabric shaver or a lint brush designed for clothing.

The Regatta Frankie Warm Full Zip Fleece requires no special setup. It is designed for children aged 9-10 (size children UK: 9-10). Its versatile design means it can be paired with base layers, t-shirts, and outer shells, making it compatible with a wide range of children's outdoor apparel. Care Instructions: To ensure the longevity and performance of your fleece, follow these care guidelines: 1. Washing: Machine wash cold with similar colors. Use a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach. 2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Avoid high heat as it can damage fleece fibers. 3. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat will flatten the fleece pile and reduce its insulating properties. 4. Fabric Softeners: Avoid using fabric softeners as they can clog the fleece fibers and reduce breathability and moisture-wicking capabilities. 5. Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight.
